When parameters are dimly lit, proceed with caution and do the following:
•
Assess the patient.
•
Check the sensor and ensure proper sensor application. The sensor must be
well secured to the site for the monitor to maintain accurate readings.
Misalignment of the sensor's emitter and detector can result in smaller
signals and cause erroneous readings.

Misalignment of the sensor's emitter and detector can result in smaller
signals and cause erroneous readings.
•
Determine if an extreme change in the patient's physiology and blood flow
at the monitoring site occurred, (e.g. an inflated blood pressure cuff, a
squeezing motion, sampling of an arterial blood specimen from the hand
containing the pulse oximetry sensor, severe hypotension, peripheral
vasoconstriction in response to hypothermia, medications, or an episode of
Raynaud's syndrome.)

With neonates or infants, check that the peripheral blood flow to the sensor
site is not interrupted. Interruption, for example, may occur while lifting or
crossing their legs during a diaper change.

crossing their legs during a diaper change.

After performing the above, if the parameter remains dimly lit frequently or
continuously, obtaining an arterial blood specimen for CO-Oximetry analysis
may be considered to verify the oxygen saturation value.
