1.2
Intended Audience This manual provides information to health-care professionals acting as caregivers in a hospital or hospital-type setting for operation and maintenance of the monitoring system. Refer to the institution for any additional training or skill requirements beyond those identified here for operation and maintenance of the monitoring system. Before operating, thoroughly read this manual.

Safety Information This section contains safety information requiring users to exercise appropriate caution while using the monitoring system.
1.3.1 Safety Symbols Table 1-1. Safety Symbol Definitions Symbol
Definition WARNING Warnings alert users to potential serious outcomes (death, injury, or adverse events) to the patient, user, or environment. Caution Cautions alert users to exercise appropriate care for safe and effective use of the product. Note Notes provide additional guidelines or information.
1.3.2 Warnings
1-2
WARNING: Explosion hazard - Do not use in the presence of flammable anesthetics. WARNING: Shock hazard - Use only when connected to a grounded outlet to avoid electric shock. WARNING: Use only Covidien-approved internal batteries. WARNING: The monitoring system is not defibrillator-proof. It may remain attached to the patient during defibrillation or during use of an electrosurgical unit, however, readings may be inaccurate during use in this environment and shortly thereafter.
Operator’s Manual
Safety Information
WARNING: Supplemental oxygen will attenuate patterns of desaturation. A patient’s respiratory compromise can be proportionally more severe before patterns appear in the saturation trend. Remain vigilant when monitoring a patient on supplemental oxygen. WARNING: Do not silence or disable audible alarms or decrease the volume of the audible alarm if patient safety could be compromised. Do not dim or disable visual alarms if patient safety could be compromised. WARNING: Ensure the monitoring system is clear of any obstructions that prevent awareness of visual or audible alarms. Failure to do so may result in inadvertently missing a visual alarm or an inaudible alarm tone. WARNING: Do not use any monitoring system, sensor, cable, or connector that appears damaged. Remove any damaged equipment from service for inspection by a qualified service technician. WARNING: Do not lift by the sensor or interface cable. The cable may disconnect, potentially dropping the monitoring system on a patient or damaging surface. WARNING: When installing the AC power cord, ensure the cord is carefully positioned to prevent tripping and entanglement. WARNING: Do not spray, pour, or spill any liquid on the monitoring system, its accessories, connectors, switches, or openings in the chassis, since this may cause damage to the monitoring system.

Introduction
WARNING: To ensure accurate performance and prevent device failure, do not subject to extreme moisture, such as direct exposure to rain. Such exposure may cause inaccurate performance or device failure. WARNING: The monitoring screen contains toxic chemicals. Do not touch a broken enclosure or monitoring screen. Physical contact with a broken enclosure or monitoring screen can result in transmission or ingestion of toxic substances.
1.3.3 Cautions
1-4
Caution: When connecting the monitoring system to any instrument, verify proper operation before clinical use. Both the monitoring system and the instrument connected to it must utilize a grounded outlet. Any equipment connected to the data interface must be certified according to the latest IEC/EN 60950 -1 standard for data-processing equipment, the latest IEC/EN 60601-1 standard for electromedical equipment, or the latest IEC/EN safety standards relevant to that equipment. All combinations of equipment must be in compliance with Requirements for Medical Electrical Systems IEC Standard 60601-11:2007. Anyone who connects equipment to the data interface is configuring a medical system and, therefore, is responsible for ensuring the system complies with the Requirements for Medical Electrical Systems IEC/EN Standard 60601-1-1:2007 and the electromagnetic compatibility IEC/EN Standard 60601-1-2:2007. Accuracy may degrade if it is connected to secondary I/O devices when the equipment is not connected to earth reference. Caution: Federal law (U.S.A.) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

2 Product Overview
2.1
Overview This chapter contains basic introductory information for operating the Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System. The monitoring system relies on unique oximetry technology and design in providing hospitals, clinicians and caregivers accurate, timely data.
2.2
Product Description The Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System provides continuous noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin SpO2 and pulse rate.
2.3
Indications for Use The Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System is a portable pulse oximeter intended for prescription use only as a continuous non-invasive monitor of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during both no motion and motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused. The monitoring system is intended for use in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, and during intra-hospital transport. The OxiMax SPD™ Alert (SPD) feature is intended only for facility-use care of adults to detect patterns of desaturation indicative of repetitive reductions in airflow through the upper airway and into the lungs.
Note: • Hospital use typically covers such areas as general care floors (GCFs), operating rooms, special procedure areas, intensive and critical care areas within the hospital and in hospital-type facilities. Hospital-type facilities include physician office-based facilities, sleep labs, skilled nursing facilities, surgicenters, and sub-acute centers. •
Intra-hospital transport includes transport of a patient within the hospital or hospital-type facility.
