Cautions
•
Do not use the
GO
2
LED
as the only basis for making medical decisions. It is intended
only to be used as additional information that you can give to your licensed
health care professional.
•
The
GO
2
LED
might misinterpret excessive movement as good pulse strength. Limit
finger movement as much as possible when using the device.
•
The
GO
2
LED
must be able to measure your pulse properly to give you an accurate reading. Do
not put the device on the same hand/arm when using a blood pressure cuff or monitor.
•
The
GO
2
LED
has no alarms. It will not sound if the amount of oxygen in your blood is
low or if your pulse rate is too high or too low.
•
Do not place the
GO
2
LED
in liquid or clean it with agents containing ammonium chloride,
isopropyl alcohol, or products that are not listed in this User’s Guide.
•
The
GO
2
LED
is not intended for use in institutions.
•
Any of the following conditions may reduce the performance of the
GO
2
LED
:
- flickering or very bright light;
- weak pulse quality (low perfusion);
- low hemoglobin;
- arterial catheters;
- nail polish, and/or artificial nails; and
- any tests recently performed on you that required an injection of
intravascular dyes.
•
The
GO
2
LED
may not work if you have poor circulation. Rub your finger to
increase circulation, or place the device on another finger.
•
The
GO
2
LED
measures oxygen saturation of functional hemoglobin. High levels of
dysfunctional hemoglobin (caused by sickle cell anemia, carbon monoxide, etc.)
could affect the accuracy of the measurements.
•
Batteries can leak or explode if used or disposed of improperly. Remove the
battery if the
GO
2
LED
will be stored for more than 30 days.
•
Do not use the
GO
2
LED
in a combustible environment (oxygen enriched environment).
•
Do not use the
GO
2
LED
outside the specified operating and storage temperature ranges.
•
Do not use the
GO
2
LED
for more than 30 minutes without relocating the device
to another finger.
