Troubleshooting Tips
Table 13 Troubleshooting Tips for SpO2, SpCO, and SpMet
OBSERVATION POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
The monitor measures a pulse,
but there is no oxygen
saturation or pulse rate
Excessive patient motion •
Keep patient still.
• Check that sensor is secure.
• Relocate sensor.
•
Apply adhesive sensor.
Patient perfusion may be too
low
•
Check patient.
• Increase sensitivity.
SpO
2
or pulse rate changes
rapidly, pulse amplitude is
erratic
Excessive patient motion • Keep patient still.
•
Check that sensor is secure.
• Relocate sensor.
• Apply adhesive sensor.
• Increase sensitivity.
An electrosurgical unit (ESU)
may be interfering with
performance
• Move the monitor as far as
possible from the ESU.
• Plug the ESU and monitor
into different circuits.
• Move the ESU ground pad
as close to the surgical site
as possible.
Sensor may be damp • Replace sensor.
SPO2: NO SENSOR DETECTED
message appears
Sensor not connected to patient
or cable disconnected from
monitor/defibrillator
•
Check that sensor and cable
are connected properly.
•
Check that appropriate
sensor is in use.
Damaged cable or sensor
• Replace damaged cable or
sensor.
No SpO
2
, SpCO, or SpMet
value (---) is displayed
Sensor may be too tight •
Reposition sensor.
• Relocate sensor.
Patient is in cardiac arrest or
shock
• Check patient.
Oximeter may be performing
self-calibration or self-test
• Wait for completion.
•
If values do not display
within 30 seconds,
disconnect and reconnect
sensor. If values do not
display within
another 30 seconds, replace
sensor.
Defibrillator shock just delivered •
None. If values do not
display within 30 seconds,
disconnect and reconnect
sensor. If values do not
display within
another 30 seconds, replace
sensor.
