Oximeter Operation and Service Manual 1-7
NOTE! Operation of this device may be adversely affected
in the presence of computed tomograph (CT) equipment.
NOTE! Use only SpO
2
sensors supplied with, or specifi-
cally intended for use with, this device.
NOTE! SpO
2
measurements may be adversely affected in
the presence of high ambient light. Shield the sensor area
(with a surgical towel, for example) if necessary.
NOTE! Dyes introduced into the bloodstream, such as
methylene blue, indocyanine green, indigo carmine,
patent blue V (PBV), and fluorescein, may adversely affect
the accuracy of the SpO
2
reading.
NOTE! Any condition that restricts blood flow, such as
use of a blood pressure cuff or extremes in systemic vas-
cular resistance, may cause an inability to determine
accurate pulse rate and SpO
2
readings.
NOTE! Remove fingernail polish or false fingernails before
applying SpO
2
sensors. Fingernail polish or false finger-
nails may cause inaccurate SpO
2
readings.
NOTE! The presence of dyshemoglobins, such as carbox-
yhemoglobin (with CO-poisoning) or methemoglobin (with
sulfonamide therapy) may adversely affect the accuracy
of the SpO
2
measurement.
NOTE! Hazards arising from software errors have been
minimized. Hazard analysis was performed to meet
EN1441: 1997.
NOTE! Optical cross-talk can occur when two or more
sensors are placed in close proximity. It can be eliminated
by covering each site with opaque material.
