FAQs

The use of blood pressure cuffs is very extensive in people's lives and is an important indicator for monitoring patient signs.

Including home blood pressure monitoring, blood pressure monitoring on patient monitors, mobile blood pressure device patient monitoring, etc.

Ensure that the cable is positioned along the top of the hand then plug the SpO2 sensor into the monitor. This sensor should be recited up to every 4 hours.

Step 1. Wipe the patient's forehead and temporal skin with an alcohol swab and allow it to dry Step 2. Put probe No. 1 on the forehead 5cm above the base of the nose, probe No. 4 on one side of the eyebrow, and probe No. 3 on the temple Step 3. Press around the sensor probe to make sure it is firmly attached Step 4. Press each of the 4 probes for 5 seconds to ensure good contact between the probes and the skin Step 5. Connect the Sensor Connector with the Cable Step 6. Connect the cable to the BIS module of the monitor to read the BIS value on the monitor.

When making a clinical diagnosis by interpretation of BIS results, it should always be made in conjunction with other useful clinical signs;

Artifacts and poor signal quality can lead to inaccurate BIS results;

Caution should be exercised in interpreting BIS values in patients with established neurological disorders, patients taking psychoactive drugs, and children under one year of age who have little experience with the use of BIS.

The pulse oximeter is used to measure the oxygen level (oxygen saturation) of the blood. It uses light beams to estimate the oxygen saturation of the blood and the pulse rate. One reading measures how fast your heart is beating, and another reading measures how much oxygen is in your blood. The pulse oximeter can estimate the amount of oxygen in the blood without having to draw a blood sample.

NIBP cuffs are made by different materials, including Nylon and TPU. Nylon cuffs are more durable and easier to clean, while TPU cuffs are softer and more comfortable.

Use sedative muscle relaxants in mechanically ventilated patients, evaluate the depth of sedation, guide rational drug use, and prevent excessive sedation； 

Assessing the depth of anesthesia in patients with general anesthesia； Evaluation of comatose patients.

The probe finger sleeve is fixed on the patient's finger end, and the finger is used as a transparent container for hemoglobin to calculate the hemoglobin concentration and blood oxygen saturation. Through SpO2 monitoring, SpO2, pulse rate, and pulse wave can be obtained. It is used for blood oxygen monitoring of various patients, usually, the other end is connected to the ECG monitor.

The blood pressure cuff belongs to the technical field of medical devices and is used for blood pressure measurement. The blood pressure cuff has two specifications: single tube and double tube. The blood pressure cuff trachea and inner liner are made of environmentally friendly, non-toxic, odorless, and soft materials.

NIBP cuff is an accessory used in manual measurement and automatic non-invasive blood pressure monitoring. There are usually two types of cuffs: disposable cuffs and reusable cuffs. Disposable cuffs are ideal for use in emergency wards, operation rooms, infection or burn units, etc. considering the risk of infection or contamination. Reusable cuffs are usually for conventional and everyday use, such as in regular wards.

Blood oxygen probe is an electronic equipment accessory for critically ill patients, newborns, children, etc. in general anesthesia in clinical operations or in the process of daily pathological treatment.

Sats over 90% are on the top flat portion of the curve and could represent a PaO2 from 8 upwards.

Below 90% the curve is much steeper and a drop in Sats from 90% to 80% represents a large drop in PaO2. Down to 60%, Sats, and the oxygen content of blood is very low.

Why do doctors use it?

Pulse oximetry is a method doctors use for rapid assessment and monitoring of a patient’s respiratory function. It is also used to determine which patients might be suffering from hypoxia and should take additional tests.

Self-tracking your blood oxygen level?

Until recently doctors were the only ones to use pulse oximeters, generally in a clinical setting. But as these tools are now more common (understand “smaller and cheaper”) self-tracking your SpO2 has become a reality.

When checking your heart rate, by placing your finger in the back of the Pulse Ox, a red LED and an infrared one are lit and shine through your fingertip. The ratio of red to infrared light that goes through the Pulse Ox‘s photodiode indicates the percentage of oxygenated versus deoxygenated hemoglobin that your blood contains. This blood oxygen saturation is also called SpO2.

The % Saturation of haemoglobin in the blood can be measured either directly by arterial blood gas analysis or indirectly by pulse oximetry. The % refers to the proportion of Hb that is oxygenated to the total amount of haemoglobin.

Body temperature varies at different parts of the body. It is lower in the morning.
