Introduction
This manual (directions for use) is designed to help you understand the capabilities and operation
of the Welch Allyn VSM 6000 series of monitors. The information in this manual, including the
illustrations, is based on a monitor configured with noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), body
temperature, pulse oximetry (SpO2), and pulse rate options. If your monitor's configuration lacks
any of these options, some information in this manual may not apply.
Before using the monitor, read the sections of the manual that pertain to your use of the monitor.
Intended use
The VSM 6000 series of monitors is intended to be used by clinicians and medically qualified
personnel for monitoring of noninvasive blood pressure, pulse rate, noninvasive functional oxygen
saturation of arteriolar hemoglobin (SpO2), and body temperature in normal and axillary modes of
neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients. The most likely locations for patients to be monitored are
general medical and surgical floors, general hospital, and alternate care environments.
