Finger Tip Pulse Oximeter

The Finger Tip Pulse Oximeter can be used to measure hemoglobin saturation and pulse rate through your finger.

Using the Finger Tip Pulse Oximeter

1. Open the Oximeter holding clamp by squeezing the top portion using the holding gel surface.
2. Plug one finger into the finger port with the nail upwards towards the display screen of the Oximeter (it is best to plug the finger thoroughly) before releasing the clamp.

Precautions:

• Do not use the Fingertip Pulse Oximeter together with MRI or CT equipment.
• The Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is intended only as an adjunct in patient assessment.
• The sensor of the oximeter is not suitable for use with adhesive tape, which may lead to an error in measurement data.
• When used for a long time, it will produce discomfort or tenderness, especially for patients with microcirculation disorders. Please change the test sites periodically according to different situations of patients.
• Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobins (such as carboxyl-hemoglobin or methemoglobin) may cause inaccurate reading.
• Intravascular dyes may cause an inaccurate reading.
• Unexpected motion may cause an inaccurate reading.
• Interference caused by defibrillator may lead to inaccurate reading.
• Venous pulsations may cause inaccurate reading.
• Hypotension, severe vasoconstriction, severe anemia, or hypothermia may cause an inaccurate reading.
• Brightly painted nails may cause inaccurate SpO2 reading.
• Do not use this product if you are allergic to ABS, black silicone pad and other
• If the performance is inconsistent with the description or changes, stop using immediately and contact the manufacturer.
• The effects of degraded sensors and electrodes, or loosened electrodes, can degrade performance or cause other problems.

• It is necessary to change the placement position of the oximeter every 2 hours, check the impact of the oximeter on the skin, and move the oximeter to different

Maintenance

• Replace the batteries timely when the low battery indicator flashes
• Clean the surface of fingertip pulse oximeter before use.
• Remove the batteries when the oximeter is not likely to be used for some time when leakage from batteries would result in an unacceptable risk.
• It is recommended that the product should be kept dry. Wetness might affect its lifetime and even damage the product.

Cleaning frequency

If the oximeter gets dirty when used, it is recommended to clean the enclosure and silicone pad after each use. If the oximeter is not dirty, simply clean the black silicone pad before and after each use.

Cleaning method:

When the oximeter is used at home, wipe and disinfect with 75% alcohol, then dry naturally or clean the product with dry cloth. Clean at least twice a week.

Blood Pressure Monitor

The Blood Pressure Monitor can be used to measure your blood pressure, vein diameter, and pulse. It can also detect the presense of an arrhythmia.
Avoid bathing, drinking alcohol, consuming caffeinated products, smoking, exercising and eating 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes before taking a measurement. Avoid taking measurements when stressed. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place. Remain still and do not talk during measurement.

To ensure consistent results:

• Measure your blood pressure at the same time of day.
• Measure your blood pressure from the same arm.

Setting up:

In the powered-off state, long-press the Memory button for 5 seconds. This activates setup mode. In this mode, the Memory button switches between entry points and categories, and the Power button changes the data.

1. The first setup category is user. You can use the Power button to switch between the two users. Press the Memory button to progress to the next category.
2. The next category is year. Press the Power button if you need to change it. If you need to advance quickly, press and hold the Power button.
3. The next category is the date. Once the basics like date and time are set, the Blood Pressure Monitor will keep up as long as it is supplied with power.
4. The next category switches between a 12 hour and 24 hour clock. Press the Power button to switch between them.
5. The next category is clock setup. Use the Power button to set. If you need to advance quickly, press and hold the Power button.
6. The final setting is speaker on or off. Press the Power button to switch them.

Using the Blood Pressure Monitor

1. Insert the air hose plug into the air hose port on the left side of the monitor base.
2. Roll up your sleeve or make sure it is not wrapped too tightly around your arm. App based measurements work best if the skin is not covered.
3. Put your arm through the arm cuff and tighten the arm cuff. Make sure the “UP” arrow on the arm cuff is facing up. The bottom edge of the arm cuff should be 1 inch above the elbow.
4. Sit relaxed on a chair with your legs uncrossed and feet flat on the floor. Keep your back straight and rest your arm on a flat surface. The arm cuff should be placed at the same level as your heart.
5. Press the power button, the cuff will inflate and the Blood Pressure Monitor will display your measurements. (If you are using the Blood Pressure Monitor with the BWell app, press “start measuring” at the same time.
6. When the Blood Pressure Monitor is ready to display the measurements, the arm cuff will deflate, allowing you to remove your arm.

Using and Clearing the Memory:

This Blood Pressure Monitor can automatically store 99 measurement results for two users. If more than 99 measurements per user have been stored, the oldest results will be deleted and the new measurement results will be recorded
When the Blood Pressure Monitor is off, short press the Memory button to see the stored measurements. The default is User l’s data. If needed, follow the directions in the setup section for switching users.
To clear the memory of a user, select the user and shut the monitor back off. In the shutdown state, long press the Memory button, do not let go when the choose user setup menu is displayed, and press the Power button when CL is displayed.

Blood Pressure Monitor What the Numbers mean

Forehead Thermometer

The Forehead Thermometer can be used to conduct contact-less body and surface temperature measurements. Environment changes can affect the accuracy of temperature readings. Before use, allow the thermometer to remain in one location without significant air temperature changes for 30 minutes. Wait at least 30 minutes after strenuous exercise before taking a temperature reading. Do not wear a hat and make sure there is no hair, sweat, or makeup on your forehead while taking temperature readings To avoid human error, take multiple measurements and use the average temperature

Using the Forehead Thermometer

1. Power on the thermometer by pressing the measure button. The screen will flash all the characters and then indicate that it is warming up by displaying a cycling ticker. When it flashes three bars, it is ready to begin the next measurement. Check that the body mode indicator is lit on the screen (represented by a head in profile) to confirm the thermometer is in body mode.
2. Hold the thermometer 1-2 in. from the forehead and press the measure button
3. Hold the thermometer still during reading. A beep will indicate that the measurement is complete unless the device is in mute mode.
4. Once the temperature is taken, it will display for five seconds. After the temperature has been displayed, the thermometer will revert to standby mode indicated by three bars. Press the measure button again to take a new temperature.
5. To power off the thermometer, hold the measure button for three (3) seconds or wait 15 seconds for the auto shutoff feature to power off the thermometer

Fever Alerts

If a temperature reading is above the normal range, the thermometer will give you a fever alert. The illustration below outlines how the thermometer indicates fever alerts
