5. Connect the OXIMAX
®
MAX-FAST oximetry sensor into the LX-7230N.
Verify proper operation as described in the operation manual.
NOTE
If the sensor does not track the pulse reliably, it may be incorrectly
positioned - or the sensor site may be excessively wrinkled, or too deeply
pigmented or otherwise deeply colored (for example, as a result of
externally applied coloring such as dye or pigmented cream) to permit
appropriate light transmission. If any of these situations occurs, reposition
the sensor in a different location or choose an alternate Nellcor sensor to
use on a different site.
