CAUTION
Precautions for Use of reusable sensors, DS-100A
Do not apply the sensor on the thumb or toe. It may cause incorrect
measurements.
Do not use the sensor for long-term monitoring.
Circulation distal on the sensor site should be checked routinely.
Reusable sensors must be moved to a new site at least every 4 hours.
Because individual skin condition affects the ability of the skin to
tolerate sensor placement, it may be necessary to change the sensor
site more frequently with some patients. If skin integrity changes,
move the sensor to another site. If long-term monitoring is required,
use an OxiMax
