Introduction Precautions
xiv 0070- 0-0704-02 Passport V Operating Instructions
Placement of a sensor on an extremity that has a blood
pressure cuff, arterial catheter, or intra-vascular line
Nail polish or fungus
CAUTION: In certain situations in which perfusion and signal strength are
low, such as in patients with thick or pigmented skin,
inaccurately low SpO
2
readings will result. Verification of
oxygenation should be made, especially in preterm infants and
patients with chronic lung disease, before instituting any
therapy or intervention.
CAUTION: Many patients suffer from poor peripheral perfusion due to
hypothermia, hypovolemia, severe vasoconstriction, reduced
cardiac output, etc. These symptoms may cause a loss in vital
sign readings.
CAUTION: Prolonged and continuous monitoring may increase the risk of
skin erosion and pressure necrosis at the site of the sensor.
Check the SpO
2
sensor site frequently to ensure proper
positioning, alignment and skin integrity at least every eight (8)
hours; with the Adult and Pediatric re-usable finger sensor,
check every four (4) hours; for neonates and patients of poor
perfusion or with skin sensitive to light, check every 2 - 3
hours; more frequent examinations may be required for
different patients. Change the sensor site if signs of circulatory
compromise occur.
CAUTION: When equipped with Masimo SET
®
SpO
2
, use only Masimo SET
Oxygen Transducers including Masimo SET LNOP
®
and LNCS
®
Patient Dedicated Adhesive Sensors and Masimo SET PC Series
Patient Cables. Use of other oxygen transducers may cause
improper oximeter performance.
CAUTION: When equipped with Nellcor
®
SpO
2
, use only Nellcor oxygen
transducers including Nellcor Oxisensor
®
and OxiMax
®
patient
dedicated adhesive sensors. Use of other oxygen transducers
may cause improper oximeter performance.
CAUTION: When equipped with DPM SpO
2
, use only DPM oxygen sensors
and cables. Use of other oxygen sensors may cause improper
oximeter performance.
CAUTION: Vacuum (negative pressure) should not exceed 1 mmHg at the
Passport V Pump Exhaust fitting. Excessive scavenge vacuum
may result in an Occlusion message or damage to the Passport
V’s internal pump. The scavenging system must be on during
calibration.
CAUTION: When cleaning SpO
2
sensors, do not use excessive amounts of
liquid. Wipe the sensor surface with a soft cloth, dampened
with cleaning solution. Do not attempt to sterilize.
