Indications for Use
The Pulse Oximeter, based on all digital technology, is intended for noninvasive spot-check measurement of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2). Advanced DSP algorithm can minimize the influence of motion artifact and improve measurement accuracy of low perfusion.
The Oximeter can be used to measure human Hemoglobin Saturation and heart rate through finger. The product is suitable for family, hospital (including clinical use in internist/surgery, Anesthesia, pediatrics, intensive care and etc.) oxygen Bar, social medical organizations, physical care in sports and etc.

Important Safety Information and Precautions

• Do not attempt to service the Pulse Oximeter. Only qualified service personnel should attempt any needed internal servicing.
• Prolonged use or the patient’s condition may require changing the sensor site periodically. Change sensor site and check skin integrity, circulatory status and correct alignment at least every 2 hours.
• SpO2 measurements may be adversely affected in the presence of high ambient light. Shield the sensor area (with a surgical towel, or direct sunlight, for example) if necessary.
• The following reason will cause interference to the testing accuracy of the pulse oximeter.

where p is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in metres (m).b

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey, a should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range. b

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

1. NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
2. NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
3. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the A310 Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the A310 Fingertip Pulse Oximeter should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the A310 Fingertip Pulse Oximeter.
4. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the EQUIPMENT or SYSTEM – for EQUIPMENT and SYSTEMS that are not LIFE- SUPPORTING
This device is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The user of this device can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and this device as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 : At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
