  Applying the OxiMax
®
 MAX-P/ MAX-A/ MAX-AL sensor 
 
This Nellcor
®
 adhesive sensor, model MAX-P/ MAX-A/ MAX-AL, is indicated 
for continuous noninvasive arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring 
and can be reused on the same patient as long as the adhesive tape attaches 
without slippage.   
 
1.  Remove the plastic backing from the MAX-P/MAX-A/MAX-AL and locate 
the transparent windows (a) on the adhesive side. Windows cover optical 
components (Figure (1)). 
The index finger is the preferred MAX-P/MAX-A/MAX-AL location. 
Alternatively, apply the sensor to the small thumb, smaller finger, or big toe. 
NOTE 
When selecting the sensor site, priority should be given to an extremity free 
of an arterial catheter, blood pressure cuff, or intravascular infusion line. 
2.  Orient the MAX-P/MAX-A/MAX-AL so that the dashed line in the middle of 
the sensor is centered on the tip of the finger/toe (Figure (2)). Wrap the 
adhesive flaps around the digit. Note that the cable must be positioned on 
the top of the hand or foot. 
3.  Fold the cable end over the top of the finger/toe so that the windows are 
directly opposite to each other. Wrap the adhesive securely around both 
sides of the digit (Figure (3)). 
4.  Connect the MAX-P/MAX-A/MAX-AL into the LX-7230N. Verify proper 
operation as described in the operation manual.

NOTE 
If the sensor does not track the pulse reliably, it may be incorrectly 
positioned – or the sensor site may be too thick, thin, or deeply pigmented, 
or otherwise deeply colored (for example, as a result of externally applied 
coloring such as nail polish, dye, or pigmented cream) to permit appropriate 
light transmission. If any of these situations occurs, reposition the sensor or 
choose an alternate Nellcor sensor to use on a different site.
