Read the full statement (161 words)

The non-invasive Masimo O3 Regional Oximeter System and accessories are indicated for use as an adjunct monitor of regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood (rSO2) in the cerebral region under the sensors in patients in healthcare environments. The O3 Regional Oximeter is only to be used with Masimo O3 sensors. The use of any other sensor is not supported or recommended by Masimo and could give erroneous results.

When used with the O3 Adult Sensor, the O3 Regional Oximeter is indicated for measuring absolute and trending regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood (rSO2) in adults ≥ 40 kg.

When used with the O3 Pediatric Sensor, the O3 Regional Oximeter is indicated for measuring absolute and trending regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood (rSO2) in pediatrics ≥ 5 kg and < 40 kg.

When used with the O3 Neonatal Sensor, the O3 Regional Oximeter is indicated for measuring only trending regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood (rSO2) in neonates < 10 kg.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
