Cleaning And Reuse Of Masimo Reusable
Sensors and Cables
Reusable sensors and patient cables can be cleaned per the following procedure:
1. Remove the sensor from the patient.
2. Disconnect the sensor from the patient cable.
3. Disconnect the patient cable from the monitor.
4. Wipe the entire sensor and/or patient cable clean with a 70% isopropyl alcohol pad.
5. Allow to air dry thoroughly before returning it to operation.
CAUTION:
• Carefully route patient cables to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or
strangulation.
Reattachment of a Single Use Acoustic
Respiration Sensor
■ A single use Acoustic Respiration Sensor may be reapplied to the same patient if it is dry,
clean, free of debris and oil and the adhesive still adheres to the skin
Reattachment of a Single Use Rainbow SET
or Masimo SET Adhesive Sensor
■ A single use Rainbow SET or Masimo SET sensor may be reapplied to the same patient if
the emitter and detector windows are clear and the adhesive still adheres to the skin.
NOTE: If the sensor fails to track the pulse consistently, the sensors may be incorrectly
positioned. Reposition the sensor or choose a different monitoring site.
CAUTION:
• Do not attempt to reprocess, recondition or recycle any masimo sensors or patient
cables as these processes may damage the electrical components, potentially
leading to patient harm.
CAUTION:
• To prevent damage, do not soak or immerse the sensor in any liquid solution. Do
not attempt to sterilize by irradiation, steam, autoclave or any method other than
ethylene oxide as indicated.
WARNING: TO AVOID CROSS CONTAMINATION ONLY USE MASIMO SINGLE USE
SENSORS ON THE SAME PATIENT.
