sterilize these devices may result in bio-incompatibility, infection or product failure
risks to the patient.
This device is not made with natural rubber latex or DEHP.
Directions for Use
Indications/Contraindications
The Nellcor™ Adult SpO
when continuous noninvasive arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring are
required for patients weighing more than 30 kg.
The MAXA(L) is contraindicated for use on patients who exhibit allergic reactions to
the adhesive tape.
Note: Adhesive sensor consists of sensor, cable and wrap adhesive flaps.
Instructions for Use
1. Remove plastic backing from the MAXA(L) and locate transparent windows (a) on
the adhesive side. Windows cover optical components.
An index finger is the preferred MAXA(L) location. Alternatively, apply the sensor
to a small thumb, smaller finger, or great toe.
Note: When selecting a sensor site, priority should be given to an extremity free of an
arterial catheter, blood pressure cuff, or intravascular infusion line.
2. Orient the MAXA(L) so the dashed line in the middle of the sensor is centered on
the tip of the digit. Wrap adhesive flaps on non-cable end around the digit. Note
that the cable must be positioned on the top of the hand.
3. Fold cable end over top of digit so that windows are directly opposite each other.
Wrap adhesive securely around sides of digit.
4. Plug the MAXA(L) into the oximeter and verify proper operation as described in
the oximeter operator's 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 for use on a different site.
To remove the Adhesive Sensor:
1. Peel the tape wrap to gently remove the sensor.
2. Disconnect the sensor from the monitor by unplugging the sensor from the
extension cable or monitor.
Sensor, model MAXA(L) is indicated for single patient use
