WARNING Inaccurate measurement risk. Use only Masimo rainbow SET
sensors and accessories on Masimo-equipped monitors.
WARNING High-intensity lights (including pulsating strobe lights) directed
on the pulse co-oximeter can prevent it from obtaining readings.
WARNING The pulsations from intra-aortic balloon support can increase
the pulse rate displayed on the monitor. Verify the patient's pulse rate
against the ECG heart rate.
WARNING Inaccurate measurement risk. Venous congestion might cause
a low reading of arterial oxygen saturation. Place the sensor on a hand at
heart level to ensure proper venous outflow from a monitored site.
