Oximeter softwa¡e Revisions T and later change several oximeter alarms/messages, as well as
the reasons why tJrese alarms/messages occur. This addendr¡:n describes the resulting changres
and additions to information ín tfte Oñmeda Biox 3700e Pulse Oximeter Sen¡ice Manual.

software Revisions T and liater affect sections of thls manual that contain the following
information:

o Performance Assurance Testing

Alarm Silence During Powenrp

Software Revisions T and liater change tJre audible aiarm silencing feature d.uring oximeter
powerup.

The patient and. probe alaro tone is silenced for one ainute after tJre SYSTEMOPERAIIONAL
messag€ appears during initial power up. If the probe is off ttre patient (PROBEOFF alarm) or
not connected to the oxim.eter (NO PROBEalarm) when this minute is up, the alarm tone stays
silenced until the condition changes. In otJrer words, the alarm tone is silenced until the probe
is connected to the patient and the oximeter.

Sign-On and Operational Messages

Software Revisions T and later change the sign-on and operational message that display
during powerup and after various functions are performed on the oximetei.

After turning the oximeter on, the foliowing message aBpears:

Staged Alarm System
Software Revisions T a¡rd later change oximeter messages/alarms and message/alarm
conditions for the oximeter's staged alarm system.

The staged alarm system warns you that data might be unreliable and. that you may need. to
check tJ.e probe site or how the probe is applied to the patient. The heart of this system is an
algorithm that checks sigrnal guality from the probe site. This algorithm notes a low quality
signal "event" when the sigmal quality deteriorates due to motion of the probe site, poor
probe plaeement, electrical noise, or other fastors. The oximeter initiates messagies, then
insreases alarmlmessag:e severity according to the number of these events that occur over a
Beriod of time.

The foUowing tables provide a¡r overview of the staged alarm system. They list alarms and
messages output by the oximeter a¡d a computer interface (ü used) dwing the ala¡m stages.

Warning Remedie¡ :

To alleviate the warning conütion, try these techniques in sequence untir

alarms, messagres,
and other w¿rrnings cease.

1' Check attachment and placement of the probe model you ¿ue using against
instructions in
the o¡meda P¡obes Manual (0380-o9oo-085,gx*tooo-304). Make sure that
the probe is
used according to instrustions.

2. Have tJle patient ¡grheiq as motionless as possible.

3. Massage probe site and reapply the probe.

4. Select a¡rother probe site, if possible.

5. Try using another probe.

Signal Strength a¡rd No pulse Warnings

software Revisions T and later change some oxim.eter messages and
alarrns that ocsur because
of low sigmal strengrth and pulse readings.

If the bar grraph on the Graphic Dispiay shows sigmal strengrüh at 1 pixet
or less for s second.s
or rnore, or if pulse rate readings a¡e less than oi equal to ZO ¡eati per
minute (BpM) for S
seconds or rnore, the fo[owing @qrrs:

Page 3 of 14
 Note: RevisÍon T does not change the LOQUALITY SGNLmessage that appears when the bar
graph on the Graphic Display is at 5 pixeis or less continuously for 5 seconds or more.

If a computer jnterface js used with the oximeter, the following occurs;

. SaO2and PR read.ings on the computer screen dash for all mod.es

o I NO PULSEmessage appe¿us for the auto output mode
. An NS message appears for the output trend mode
. An error code of 11 appears for the waveform mod.e

Probe Placement Warning

Revisions T and iater of the software add a wañüng to indicate possible poor probe placement.

The oximeter outputs wanüngs when internally calcadated SaO2readings indicate possible
unreüable data, This data may be r¡nreliabte because of probe site motion, poor probe
placementr or poor probe site selection. The following wafnings occuf:

. SaO2a¡rd PulseRatereadings dash on the oximeter Digrital Display

o An audible alarm sounds and atarm tight flashes
o The CHECKPROBESITEmessagreappears on the oximeter Graphic Display

Note: These warnings a¡e the savne that occur during stage 3 of the staged alarm system.
However, these probe placement warning's occr.¡rimürediately, without first going through
messages and alarms associated with stage 1 and 2 of the staged alarm system.

If you use a computer interface with the oxiñeter, SaO2readings dash and the following messag:es
appear on the computef scfeen:
. SaOzand PulseRateread.ings dash for all modes
ó A OHECKPROBESITEmessage appenrs for the auto output mode
. A eG messaga aBpears for the output trend mode
. An er¡or code of I appears for the waveform mode

Warning Remedie¡

Use the following technigues to alleviate the waming condition. Try the technigues in order,
starting with number one, until atrarms, messa€fes, and otJrer wamirrgs cease.

1. Check attachnent and placement of the Brobe model you are using against instructions in
tlre Ohmeda Probes Manuat (0390-0900-095,BX#1000-304). Ma}e sure rhat rhe probe is
used according to instrucüions.

2. Have the patient renrain as motionless as possible.

4" Selest another probe sita, if possible.

5. Try using another probe.
