The Multi-Sensing Oximetry System when used with Model 8330AA sensor, is intended for noninvasive measuring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (%SpO2), carboxyhemoglobin saturation (%COHb), and pulse rate. The measurements may be multiple spot-checks to observe change and/or continuous monitoring. This device is not meant for sole use in clinical decision making; it must be used in conjunction with additional methods of assessing clinical signs and symptoms.
• For %SpO2 and pulse rate, the multi-sense system is intended for use in professional healthcare facilities, mobile, and EMS settings in adult and pediatric patients (> 66 lbs/30 kg).
• For %COHb, the multi-sense system is intended for use in professional healthcare facilities in adult and pediatric patients (> 66 lbs/30 kg). This device should not be used to screen, diagnose or make treatment decisions related to suspected carbon monoxide poisoning.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
