LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Operating Instructions
73
If excessive movement presents a problem during SpCO/SpMet monitoring, consider the
following possible solutions:
•
Be sure the sensor is secure and properly aligned.
•
Use a disposable adhesive sensor.
•
If possible, move the sensor to a less active site.
Note:
Wrapping the sensor too tightly or using supplemental tape to hold the sensor in place
may cause inaccurate oximeter readings.
Note:
Circulation distal to the sensor site should be checked routinely.
IMPORTANT!
Masimo Rainbow sensors are necessary to monitor SpCO and SpMet and are
not compatible with other LIFEPAK defibrillator/monitors.
Oximeter Monitoring Procedure
Power to the pulse oximeter is controlled by the LIFEPAK 15 monitor/defibrillator. When the
defibrillator is turned on, the oximeter turns on and performs a calibration and self-test that
requires approximately 20 seconds. During the calibration and self-test, the screen does not
display SpO
2
, SpCO, or SpMet information.
To conserve battery power, the pulse oximeter goes into "sleep mode" when not in use. Sleep
mode is activated within 10 seconds of disconnecting the sensor. During sleep mode, the
screen does not display SpO
2
, SpCO, or SpMet information. When a sensor or patient signal is
detected, the oximeter performs a self-test and then returns to normal mode.
The pulse oximeter measures and displays SpO
2
levels between 50 and 100%. SpO
2
levels less
than 50% are displayed as <50. The pulse oximeter measures and displays SpCO in the range
of 0–40%. The pulse oximeter measures and displays SpMet in the range of 0–15%.
Measurement accuracies are specified in the SpO
2
/SpCO/SpMet section in Appendix A.
To monitor SpO
2
:
1.
Press
ON
.
2.
Connect the pulse oximeter cable to the monitor and sensor.
3.
Attach the sensor to the patient.
4.
Observe the pulse bar for fluctuation. Amplitude of the pulse bar indicates relative signal
quality.
5.
Confirm that the SpO
2
reading appears and is stable.
6.
Use the
SPEED DIAL
to adjust volume, sensitivity, and averaging time, as necessary.
