For the non-invasive measurement of the SpO
2
oxygen saturation and blood pulse rate utilize the re-usable finger
sensor. This sensor is recommended for patients weighing > 20 Kg with limited activity.
SpirolabIIImemorises the two oximetry values every 2 seconds.
Carry out an oximetry test as follows:
• Connect the sensor to the instrument: insert the connector with the
arrow (printed on the connector) face-up, as shown:
• Choose a high perfusion site, which is easily adaptable to the
sensor.
• Insert finger into the sensor until the finger touches the end of the
probe. Ensure that the bottom part of the finger completely covers
the detector. If the finger is not able to be correctly positioned, use
another finger.
• Position the sensor so that the cable is underneath the palm of the
hand. This enables the light source to remain on the fingernail and
the detector on the bottom part of the finger. From the main screen
press to access the test menu.
• Select required test using the vertical scroll arrow.
If this message appears:
