## Indications for use
The Spectros T-StatTM 303 Microvascular Tissue Oximeter is intended for use as an adjunct monitor of the localized hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood in the microvascular tissue spaces (StO 2%) in infants, children, or adults at risk for reduced-flow and no-flow ischemic states. The prospective clinical value of measurements made with the T-StatTM Oximeter has not been demonstrated in disease states. The T-Stat MT Oximeter should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy.
