Spo2 Measurement; Pulsoximetry - Riester ri-vital Instrucciones De Uso

7. PULSOXIMETRY

7.1 Sensor connector
The sensor connector (N) is located on the left side of the device. The sensor is
recessed to prevent damaging the sensor cable, so that the device housing protects the
connector. It is recommended that you leave the sensor on the device and use the coiler
(B) and the sensor holder (C) for storage. In order to correctly apply the SpO2 sensor to
the patient, please read the corresponding operating manual for this accessory part.

7.2 SpO2 measurement

After the sensor has been affixed to the patient, the segments of the bar indicator (A)
will start to pulsate. After a short time the readings (A) (B) will appear on the display.
The readings are updated once per second.
A symbol with crossed-through sensor appears in the status display (A) if the sensor is
not connected. The sensor symbol with arrow appears if the patient is not connected.
Perfusion index:
Measurement of the perfusion index (PI), this PI allows evaluation of the peripheral
perfusion of the tissue measured, from which conclusions can be drawn about the
quality of the measurement and the blood circulation.
