INDICATIONS

The rainbow® Series Patient Cable Series have the same indications for use as the applicable sensors. Please see the compatible sensor’s directions for use for indications for use and prescribed information.

DESCRIPTION

The rainbow® Series Patient Cables are used with Masimo® rainbow® and M-LNCS® Sensors. rainbow® Series Patient Cables are for use only with devices containing Masimo rainbow SET® technology Version 7.1 or higher or licensed to use rainbow®  compatible sensors. Consult individual oximetry system manufacturers for compatibility of particular sensor and device models.  Each device manufacturer is responsible for determining whether their devices are compatible with each sensor model. rainbow® Series Patient Cables were verified using Masimo Rainbow SET technology.
WARNING: Masimo sensors and cables are designed for use with devices containing Masimo SET® or Masimo rainbow SET oximetry or licensed to use Masimo sensors.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

  • Always refer to the oximeter module operator’s manual for complete instructions or additional instructions.
  • 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. 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.
  • Carefully route patient cable to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 replacement sensor or similar message could pertain either to the sensor or the cable.

  2. Ensure the patient cable connector is fully engaged with the device. A tactile or audible click of connection should be heard.

B. Connect the rainbow® patient cable to the Sensors Connect the rainbow® patient cable to an M-LNCS disposable sensor:

  1. Refer to Fig. 1. Orient the sensor connector to the patient cable connector as shown.
  2. Refer to Fig. 2. Insert the sensor connector completely into the patient cable connector until it locks in place as shown.

Connect the rainbow® patient cable to a rainbow® disposable sensor:

  1. Refer to Fig. 3. Orient the sensor connector (1) to patient cable connector (2) as shown.
  2. Refer to Fig. 4. Insert the sensor connector (1) completely into the patient cable connector (2) until it locks in place as shown.

Connect the rainbow® patient cable to a reusable M-LNCS or a reusable rainbow® sensor:

  1. Refer to Fig. 5. Orient sensor connector (1) to patient cable connector (2) as shown.
  2. Refer to Fig. 6. Insert the sensor connector (1) completely into the patient cable connector (2) until it locks in place..

C. Disconnecting the rainbow® patient cable from the Sensors
NOTE: Pull on the connectors only, do not pull the cables.
Disconnect the M-LNCS disposable sensor:

  1. Refer to Fig. 2. Pull firmly on the sensor connector to remove it from the patient cable.

Disconnect the rainbow® disposable sensor:

Disconnect the reusable M-LNCS or reusable rainbow® sensor:

  1. Refer to Fig. 5. While holding the sides of patient cable connector (2), lift sensor connector cover (3) from patient cable connector (2). Disconnect sensor connector (1) from patient cable connector (2).

CLEANING

  1. Remove the sensor from the patient and disconnect it from the patient cable.
  2. Clean the surface of the cable by wiping it with a 70% isopropyl alcohol pad.
  3. Wipe all surfaces of the cable.
  4. Saturate another cloth or gauze pad with sterile or distilled water and wipe all surfaces of the cable.
  5. Dry the cable by wiping all surfaces with a clean cloth or dry gauze pad.
