Introduction Intended use
The TCM5 monitoring system including the TCM5 monitor, tc Sensors and accessories is intended for non-invasive continuous transcutaneous monitoring of: •
•
•
carbon dioxide partial pressure (tcpCO2), functional oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR), using the tc Sensor 92 applied on the earlobe, the cheek or the forehead of pediatric (>3 kg) or adult patients. On other conventional measuring sites (chest, abdomen, back, upper arm, thigh, forearm, laterally on the neck, subclavicular) only tcpCO2 can be monitored in pediatric or adult patients. carbon dioxide partial pressure (tcpCO2) and oxygen partial pressure (tcpO2) using the tc Sensor 84 applied subclavicular, on the abdomen, upper arm, forearm, inner and outer thigh or back of neonate, pediatric or adult patients. Additional application sites for pediatric and adult patients are chest, laterally on the neck and on the forehead. carbon dioxide partial pressure (tcpCO2) using the tc Sensor 54 applied on the earlobe, cheek, forehead of pediatric or adult patients. On other conventional measuring sites tcpCO2 can be monitored in neonate, pediatric or adult patients.
The TCM5 monitor software provides 2 preconfigured parameter sets called FLEX (full functionality) and BASIC (limited functionality). If the BASIC parameter set is selected, the intended use is limited to non-invasive continuous transcutaneous recording of: •
carbon dioxide partial pressure (tcpCO2), functional oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR), using the tc Sensor 92 applied on the earlobe, the cheek or the forehead of pediatric (>3 kg) or adult patients. On other conventional measuring sites (chest, abdomen, back, upper arm, thigh, forearm, laterally on the neck, subclavicular) only tcpCO2 can be recorded in pediatric or adult patients.
The TCM5 monitoring system is indicated for use in hospitals, in hospital-like facilities and for use during intra-hospital patient transport. The TCM5 monitoring system is intended for use by healthcare professionals only. The TCM5 monitoring system is for prescription use only.
Intended operators The TCM5 monitor is intended for use by healthcare professionals over 18 years of age.

TCM5: Instructions for use
Chapter 1: Introduction
Intended medical indications Medical conditions where the healthcare professional finds it clinically relevant to use non-invasive and continuous transcutaneous monitoring of carbon dioxide partial pressure (tcpCO2), oxygen partial pressure (tcpO2) functional oxygen saturation (SpO2), and pulse rate.
Environment of use The TCM5 monitor is intended for use in these environments: • Hospital or clinic • Transport within a clinical environment
Training requirements for healthcare professionals Healthcare professionals must have received hands-on training in the procedures and functions that are relevant for their field of work and that are described in this Instructions for use.
First-time setup When setting up the monitor for the first time, see Chapter 5, Setup.
About hazards A hazard symbol shows which instructions an operator must obey to prevent risk to persons or equipment. There are 2 types of hazard. Hazard type

Risk
WARNING
Death or injury to persons
CAUTION
Equipment damage or monitoring disruption
Physiological limitations Under the following clinical situations there is, according to current knowledge1, limited or no correlation between transcutaneous and arterial blood gas tensions: • Profound peripheral vasoconstriction • Compromised peripheral circulation • Circulatory centralization (shock) • Arterial occlusive diseases • Arteriovenous shunts (e.g. persistent ductus arteriosus) • Edema of the skin (e.g. Edema neonatorum) and other skin anomalies

Chapter 1: Introduction
Hypothermia Use of vasoactive drugs
Like the transcutaneous technique, pulse oximetry relies on the existence of intact transport mechanisms of arterial blood to the measurement site. Whenever such transport is impaired to the extent that a sufficiently large pulse signal cannot be detected, SpO2 monitoring is no longer feasible. Such a condition may occur in cases of circulatory centralization (shock), peripheral vasoconstriction, venous congestion or generally at low local tissue perfusion. Furthermore, the pulse oxymetry measurement may not be valid under the following conditions: • Excessive ambient light • Severe electrical interference • Excessive patient movement • Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobin (e.g. COHb and metHb) • Presence of intra-vascular dye • Skin pigmentation • Very low hemoglobin level • Venous pulsation at the frequency of the patient's arterial pulse • Venous return when the sensor is applied onto the forehead or cheek when the head is lower than the heart (Trendelenburg position) • A pulse oximeter should NOT be used as an apnea monitor • Pulse rate measurement is based on the optical detection of a peripheral flow pulse and therefore may not detect certain arrhythmias. The pulse oximeter should not be used as a replacement or substitute for ECG-based arrhythmia analysis. • Inaccurate measurements or loss of pulse signal may be caused by placement of a sensor on an extremity with a blood pressure cuff, arterial catheter or intravascular line • Loss of pulse signal can occur when the sensor is attached too tightly • Loss of pulse signal can occur when there is arterial occlusion proximal to the sensor Transcutaneous blood gas measurement should therefore not be regarded as a substitute for conventional arterial blood gas analysis. It is generally recommended that an accurate blood gas analysis be carried out prior to any decisive therapeutic measures. The use of the parameter(s) measured by the sensor cannot replace a permanent supervision of the patient by the medical personnel. Reference list: 1 JW. Severinghaus.

Chapter 1: Introduction
Emily L. Dobyns. Chapter 39 - Assessment and Monitoring of Respiratory Function in Pediatric Critical Care (Fourth Edition), 2011. Chan ED, Chan MM, Chan MM. Pulse oximetry: understanding its basic principles facilitates appreciation of its limitations. Respir Med. 2013 Jun;107(6):789-99.
Limitations of use Note: Diagnosis should not only rely on transcutaneous monitoring. It is intended as an aid in patient assessment. It must be used in conjunction with other clinical signs and symptoms. WARNING – Risk of infection and inaccurate results Reuse of single-use devices may lead to infection of patients and inaccurate results. WARNING – Risk of incorrect measurement Do not use the sensors during MRI scanning. Conducted current may cause burns. Also, the sensors may affect the MRI image, and the MRI unit may affect the accuracy of oximetry measurements. WARNING – Risk of skin damage Long-term hyperthermia may blister skin. When producing local hyperemia by means of hyperthermia, a certain risk of applying temperatures harmful to the skin is always present, although the risk is limited due to the control system of the monitor. Always pay attention to the use of hyperthermia for special patients, e.g. patients in shock, patients with low blood pressure, and patients with vascular constrictions. WARNING – Risk of incorrect measurement Do not measure SpO2 or PR under very low perfusion. WARNING – Risk of incorrect measurements Remove the sensors from the patient immediately if the system or patient is exposed to electrocautery or other high-frequency electrical signals, as these may affect the monitor and may cause injury to the patient. CAUTION – Risk that the patient is not being monitored Do not expose the monitor to heavy rain. Water can damage the monitor. In the event of exposure to heavy rain, contact a Radiometer service representative. Note: This equipment is not a blood gas device. It is recommended that, prior to any decisive therapeutic measures, an accurate arterial blood gas analysis is carried out. The use of the TCM5 monitoring system cannot replace a permanent supervision of the patient by medical personnel. Note: Monitoring a pregnant woman is limited to a maximum and accumulated period of 24 hours per pregnancy period.
