Product Manual

WARNING Masimo SpO2 monitoring is required when monitoring RRa.
WARNING Patient injury risk. Do not attempt to reprocess, recondition, or
recycle any sensors or patient cables. Doing so might damage electrical
components.
WARNING Patient injury risk. The sensor and extension cable are intended
only for connection to pulse co-oximetry equipment. Do not attempt to
connect these cables to a PC or any similar device. Always follow the
sensor manufacturer's directions for care and use of the sensor.
Before you begin, read the RRa sensor directions for use.
1. Verify that the dual cable is connected to the monitor and to the SpO2 cable and the
RRa cable. If a sensor is connected to the RRa cable, disconnect the sensor from the
cable.
Note When the RRa sensor is off the patient and is connected to
the monitor, the sensor might pick up periodic ambient
sounds and report a measurement.
2. Verify that you are using the Continuous profile.
3. Verify that the patient type is Adult.
4. Verify that the alarms are set appropriately.
5. Start monitoring SpO2 as described in this directions for use.
6. Attach the RRa sensor to the patient according to the manufacturer's directions for
use, observing all warnings and cautions.
Note The sensor is for single-patient use only. You can reuse the
sensor on the same patient if it is clean and dry, and the
adhesive still adheres to the skin. Otherwise, use a new
sensor. Do not reuse the sensor on another patient.
Note Do not use disposable sensors on patients who have allergic
reactions to the adhesive.
7. Connect the RRa sensor to the RRa cable.
8. Confirm that the monitor displays RRa data within approximately 60 seconds of
connection to the patient.
WARNING Patient injury risk. Incorrect sensor application or
excessive duration of sensor use can cause tissue damage.
Inspect the sensor site periodically as directed in the sensor
manufacturer's instructions.
Detaching the sensor during a measurement triggers an alarm.
