Selecting a Sensor and Cable
When selecting a sensor, consider the patient’s weight, the adequacy of perfusion, the available
sensor sites, and the anticipated duration of monitoring. For more information, refer to the
following table or contact ZOLL Medical Corporation. Select an appropriate sensor, apply it as
directed, and observe all warnings and cautions presented in the Directions for Use
accompanying the sensor.
ZOLL offers two reusable patient cables for use with Masimo oximeter sensors.
Selecting a Sensor Application Site
Choose a site that is well perfused and restricts a conscious patient's movements the least. The
ring finger or middle finger of the nondominant hand is preferred.
Alternatively, you can use the other digits on the nondominant hand. Be sure the sensor's
detector is fully covered by flesh. You can use the great toe or long toe (next to the great toe) on
restrained patients or patients whose hands are unavailable.
To prevent interference from ambient light, ensure that the sensor is properly applied, and cover
the sensor site with opaque material, if required. Failure to take this precaution in high ambient
light conditions may result in inaccurate measurements.
Do not select an SpO
2
sensor site on the same arm/leg as an NIBP cuff. Inflation of the cuff will
cause the SpO
2
values to read incorrectly.
