Indications for Use
The Masimo Rainbow SET
®
Rad-87 Pulse CO-Oximeter and accessories are indicated for
the continuous, non-invasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin
(SpO

), pulse rate, carboxyhemoglobin saturation (SpCO), methemoglobin saturation (SpMet),
total hemoglobin concentration and/or respiratory rate (RRa).The Masimo Rainbow SET Rad-87
Pulse CO-Oximeter and accessories are indicated for use with adult, pediatric and neonatal
patients during both motion and no motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly
perfused in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, mobile and home environments.
Note: Please refer to the sensor Directions for Use (DFU) for specific indications.

General Description
Pulse CO-Oximetry is a continuous and noninvasive method of measuring the level of arterial
oxygen saturation in blood. The measurement is taken by placing a sensor on a patient, usually
on the fingertip for adults and the hand or foot for neonates. The sensor is connected to the Pulse
CO-Oximetry instrument with a patient cable. The sensor collects signal data from the patient and
sends it to the instrument.
The following figure shows the general monitoring setup.
SpCO General Description
Pulse CO-Oximetry is a continuous and noninvasive method of measuring the levels of
carboxyhemoglobin concentration (SpCO) in arterial blood. It relies on the same basic principles
of pulse oximetry (spectrophotometry) to make its SpCO measurement. The measurement is
obtained by placing a sensor on a patient, usually on the fingertip for adults and the hand or foot
for infants. The sensor connects either directly to the Pulse CO-Oximetry instrument or through
an instrument patient cable. The sensor collects signal data from the patient and sends it to the
instrument. The instrument displays the calculated data as percentage value for the SpCO, which
reflect blood levels of carbon monoxide bound to hemoglobin
.
SpMet General Description
Pulse CO-Oximetry is a continuous and noninvasive method of measuring the levels of
methemoglobin concentration (SpMet) in arterial blood. It relies on the same basic principles
of pulse oximetry (spectrophotometry) to make its SpMet measurement. The measurement is
obtained by placing a sensor on a patient, usually on the fingertip for adults and the hand or foot
for infants. The sensor connects either directly to the Pulse CO-Oximetry instrument or through
an instrument patient cable. The sensor collects signal data from the patient and sends it to the
