Radical-7 Warnings and Cautions

Note: It is recommended that Radical-7 battery is fully charged prior to
use.
Note: Always charge Radical-7 when it is not in use to ensure that the
Radical-7 battery remains fully charged.
Note: All batteries lose capacity with age, thus the amount of run time at
Low Battery will vary depending upon the age of the battery.
Note: Do not loop the patient cabling into a tight coil or wrap around
the device, as this can damage the patient cabling.
Note: Additional information specific to the Masimo sensors compatible
with Radical-7, including information about parameter/measurement
performance during motion and low perfusion, may be found in the
sensor's directions for use (DFU).
Note: When using the Maximum Sensitivity setting, performance of the
"Sensor Off" detection may be compromised. If the Radical-7 is in this
setting and the sensor becomes dislodged from the patient, the potential
for false readings may occur due to environmental "noise" such as light,
vibration, and excessive air movement.
Note: The 3D Desat Index™ alarm is intended as an adjunct alarm rather
than in place of the Low SpO2 alarm.
Note: When monitoring acoustic respiration, Masimo recommends
minimally monitoring both oxygenation (SpO2) and respiration (RRa).
Note: High-intensity extreme lights (such as pulsating strobe lights)
directed on the sensor, may not allow the pulse CO-Oximeter® to obtain
vital sign readings.

monitors using SatShare should only be used for reference. Only
