Dual SpO

Monitoring
Some modules support real-time monitoring of dual SpO
2
sites. To employ this
option, insert a second Spacelabs Medical SpO
2
module into an available slot in
the monitor. The new parameter will be displayed below the first SpO
2
channel.
Affix a label to the monitor’s bezel to indicate the sensor site location (for example,
right hand, left foot) for each SpO
2
parameter displayed on the monitor.
