12.3.2 Sensitivity mode
The Sensitivity mode can be Max, Normal or Adaptive Probe OFF Detection (APOD).
Maximum : This mode should be used for the most critical patients, where obtaining a reading is
most difficult. Maximum Sensitivity is designed to interpret and display data for even the
weakest of signals. This mode is recommended during procedures and when clinician and
patient contact is continuous.
Normal : This mode provides the best combination of sensitivity and probe-off detection
performance. This mode is recommended for most patients.
Adaptive Probe OFF Detection (APOD) : This mode is the least sensitive in picking up a reading
on patients with low perfusion but has the best detection for probe-off conditions. This mode is
useful for patients that are at risk of the sensor becoming detached (pediatric, combative, etc.).

12.3.3 Fast SAT mode
The Fast SAT mode can also be selected. The Fast Sat mode can either be ON or OFF.
Fast SAT enables rapid tracking of arterial oxygen saturation changes by minimizing the
averaging. This mode is clinically applicable during procedures when detecting rapid changes in
oxygen saturation is paramount such as induction, intubation, and sleep studies.
