DESCRIPTION
The LNC DB9 Patient Cable Series are used with Masimo LNCS® sensors.
The LNC DB9 Patient Cable and Masimo Sensors have been validated with Masimo SET® pulse oximetry
technology.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
• Ensure the cable is physically intact, with no broken or frayed wires or damaged parts. Visually inspect the cable
and discard if cracks or discoloration are found.
• Carefully route patient cable to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.
• Do not attempt to reprocess, recondition or recycle Masimo sensors or patient cables as these processes may
damage the electrical components, potentially leading to patient harm.
• Masimo sensors and cables are designed for use with devices containing Masimo SET® oximetry or licensed to
use Masimo sensors.
• All sensors and cables are designed for use with specific monitors. Verify the compatibility of the monitor, cable
and sensor before use, otherwise degraded performance and/or patient injury can result.
• Failure to properly connect the sensor or the oximeter module to the cable will result in intermittent readings,
inaccurate results, or no reading.
• To avoid damage to the cable, always hold it by the connector rather than the cable when connecting or
disconnecting either end.
• Always refer to the oximeter module operator's manual for complete instructions or additional instructions.
• To prevent damage, do not soak or immerse the sensor or cable in any liquid solution. Do not attempt to sterilize
the cable or sensor.
• Caution: Replace the cable when a replace cable message is displayed, or when a low SIQ message is consistently
displayed while monitoring consecutive patients after completing the low SIQ troubleshooting steps identified
in the monitoring device operator's manual.
• Note: The cable is provided with X-Cal® technology to minimize the risk of inaccurate readings and unanticipated
loss of patient monitoring. The cable will provide up to 17,520 hours of patient monitoring time. Replace the
cable when the patient monitoring time is exhausted. Some legacy monitoring devices do not distinguish
between the cable and the sensor. In these devices, a replace sensor or similar message could pertain either to
the sensor or the cable.
INSTRUCTIONS
A) Attach the LNC Patient Cable to the device
1. Orient the connector of the cable to mate with the connector on the patient cable connector of the
Masimo SET instrument.
B) Attaching the LNC Cable to the LNCS Sensor
1. Insert the sensor connector completely into the patient cable connector (Fig. 1) .
2. Completely close the protective cover (Fig. 2).
C) Disconnecting the LNC Cable from the LNCS Sensor
1. Lift the protective cover to gain access to the sensor connector (Fig. 3).
2. Pull firmly on the sensor connector to remove from the patient cable (Fig. 4).
WARNING
Do not use the LNC DB9 Patient Cable with the LNC-MAC-180, LNC-4-Ext or another LNC DB9 Patient Cable.
CLEANING
Clean the LNC Patient Cable by wiping it with a 70% isopropyl alcohol pad and allowing it to dry thoroughly.
