Monitoring

Verify that the pulse oximeter sensor is properly positioned on the patient.

Ensure that the pulse oximeter is sensing adequate pulse quality by:

• verifying that the Pulse Quality display is blinking green and

• verifying that the Pulse Rate and SpO

displays are displaying

readings and

• verifying that blinking of the Pulse Quality display is in time with the

pulse rate for at least 10 seconds

If the Pulse Quality display is blinking red or amber or is blinking

erratically, reposition the sensor or replace the sensor.

If the sensor is not properly positioned, or no sensor is attached to the

pulse oximeter after startup (a few seconds after powering on), both the

SpO

and Pulse Rate displays will display a single dash until a valid pulse

signal is detected.
