may affect the MRI image, and the MRI unit may affect the accuracy
of oximetry measurements.
CAUTIONS
1. In the event of damage to the sterile packaging, do NOT re-sterilize.
Follow local governing ordinances and recycling instructions regarding
disposal or recycling of sensors.
2. Failure to apply the MAX-P properly may cause incorrect
measurements.
3. While the MAX-P is designed to reduce the effects of ambient light,
excessive light may cause inaccurate measurements. In such cases,
cover the sensor with opaque material.
4. Circulation distal to the sensor site should be checked routinely. The
site must be inspected every 8 hours to ensure adhesion, skin integrity,
and correct optical alignment. If skin integrity changes, move the
sensor to another site.
5. Intravascular dyes or externally applied coloring such as nail polish,
dye, or pigmented cream may lead to inaccurate measurements.
6. Excessive motion may compromise performance. In such cases, try to
keep the patient still, or change the sensor site to one with less motion.
7. Do not immerse in water or cleaning solutions. Do not resterilize.
Immersion or resterilization could damage the sensor.
8. If the sensor is wrapped too tightly or supplemental tape is applied,
venous pulsations may lead to inaccurate saturation measurements.
9. Do not alter or modify the MAX-P. Alterations or modifications may
affect performance or accuracy.
10. For additional warnings, cautions or contraindications when using this
sensor with Nellcor-compatible instruments, refer to the instrument
operator's manual or contact the manufacturer of the instrument.
Note: High oxygen levels may predispose a premature infant to develop
retinopathy. Therefore, the upper alarm limit for oxygen saturation
must be carefully selected in accordance with accepted clinical
standards and considering the accuracy range of the oximeter
being used.
