The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories can communicate with network systems for supplemental remote viewing and alarming (e.g., at a central station). In addition, the Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are indicated to provide the continuous non-invasive monitoring data obtained from the Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories for functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR) to multiparameter devices for the display on those devices.
The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are indicated for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR) of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during both no motion and motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, mobile, and home environments.
The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are indicated for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of carboxyhemoglobin saturation (SpCO) of adult, pediatric, and infant patients during no motion conditions in hospitals and hospital-type facilities. The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are not intended to be used as the sole basis for making diagnosis or treatment decisions related to suspected carbon monoxide poisoning; it is intended to be used in conjunction with additional methods of assessing clinical signs and symptoms.
The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are indicated for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of methemoglobin saturation (SpMet) of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during no motion conditions in hospitals and hospital-type facilities.
The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are indicated for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of total hemoglobin concentration (SpHb) of adult and pediatric patients during no motion conditions in hospitals and hospital-type facilities.
The Masimo Rad-97 and Accessories are indicated for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of respiratory rate (RRa) for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during no motion conditions in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, home environments, and transport within healthcare facilities.
The optional Nomoline Capnography product family is intended to be connected to other medical backboard devices for monitoring of breath rate and CO2. The Nomoline Capnography product family is intended to be connected to a patient breathing circuit for monitoring of inspired/expired gases during anesthesia, recovery and respiratory care. The environment is the operating suite, intensive care unit and patient room. The intended patient population is adult, pediatric and infant patients.
The optional non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) module is indicated for the noninvasive measurement of arterial blood pressure in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, mobile, and home environments. The NIBP module is designed to measure blood pressure for patient population described in the following table:
Patient Population Approximate Age Range
Newborn (neonate) Birth to 1 month of age
Infant 1 month to 2 years of age
Child 2 to 12 years of age
Adolescent 12-21 years of age
