CONTRAINDICATIONS: The Rad-57 is contraindicated for use as an apnea monitor.
Safety Information, Warnings and Cautions
The Rad-57™ is designed to minimize the possibility of hazards from errors in the software program
by following Sound Engineering Design Processes, Risk Analysis and Software Validation.
■The Rad-57 is to be operated by qualified personnel only. This manual, accessories, Directions
for Use, all precautionary information, and specifications should be read before use.
■Explosion hazard. Do not use the Rad-57 in the presence of flammable anesthetics or other
flammable substance in combination with air, oxygen-enriched environments, or nitrous oxide.
■Electric shock hazard. Do not open the Rad-57 cover except to replace the batteries. Only a
qualified operator may perform maintenance procedures specifically described in this manual.
Refer servicing to Masimo for repair of this equipment.
■High intensity extreme lights (such as pulsating strobe lights and direct sunlight) directed on the
sensor, may not allow the Rad-57 to obtain readings.
■ EMI radiation interference such as computer displays and/or LCD/plasma TVs can cause
errors or incorrect measurements on the Rad-57.
■If patient hypoxemia is indicated, blood samples should be analyzed by laboratory devices to
completely understand the patient's condition.
■Pulse rate measurement is based on the optical detection of a peripheral flow pulse and
therefore may not detect certain arrhythmias. The Rad-57 should not be used as a replacement
or substitute for ECG based arrhythmia analysis.
■As with all medical equipment, carefully route patient cabling to reduce the possibility of patient
entanglement or strangulation.
■Do not place the Rad-57 or accessories in any position that might cause it to fall on the patient.
■Do not lift the Rad-57 by the patient cable or sensor.
■Patient Safety - If a sensor is damaged in any way, discontinue use immediately.
■Rad-57 should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy decisions. It must be used
in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms.
■Always remove the sensor from the patient and completely disconnect the patient from the Rad-
57 before bathing the patient.
■Interfering Substances: Dyes, or any substance containing dyes, that change usual blood
pigmentation may cause erroneous readings.
■Do not use the Rad-57 or sensors during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning. Induced
current could potentially cause burns. The Rad-57 may affect the MRI image, and the MRI device
may affect the accuracy of the Pulse CO-Oximetry parameters and measurements.
■ Do not use the Rad-57 during electrocautery.
■ Do not use the Rad-57 or sensor during defibrillation.
■If using the Rad-57 during full body irradiation, keep the sensor out of the radiation field. If the
sensor is exposed to the radiation, the reading might be inaccurate or the instrument might read
zero for the duration of the active irradiation period.

Safety Information, Warnings and Cautions, continued
■Do not place the Rad-57 where the controls can be changed by the patient.
■Do not place the Rad-57 on electrical equipment that may affect the instrument, preventing it from
working properly.
■Do not expose the Rad-57 to excessive moisture such as direct exposure to rain. Excessive moisture
can cause the instrument to perform inaccurately or fail.
■Do not place containers containing liquids on or near the Rad-57. Liquids spilled on the instrument
may cause it to perform inaccurately or fail.
■Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment
■SpO2is empirically calibrated to functional arterial oxygen saturation in healthy adult
volunteers with normal levels of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) and methemoglobin (MetHb).
The Rad-57 cannot measure elevated levels of COHb or MetHb. Increases in either COHb or
MetHb will affect the accuracy of the SpO2measurement.
■ Inaccurate SpO2readings can be caused by:
zImproper sensor placement
zElevated levels of COHb and MetHb
zFor increased COHb: COHb levels above normal tend to increase the level of SpO2. The
level of increase is approximately equal to the amount of COHb that is present.
zNOTE: High levels of COHb may occur with a seemingly normal SpO2. When elevated
levels of COHb are suspected, laboratory analysis (CO-Oximetry) of a blood sample
should be performed.
■For increased MetHb: the SpO2may be decreased by levels of MetHb of up to approximately
10% to 15%. At higher levels of MetHb, the SpO2may tend to read in the low to mid 80s.
When elevated levels of MetHb are suspected, laboratory analysis (CO-Oximetry) of a
blood sample should be performed.
■Inaccurate SpCO and SpMet readings can be caused by:
z Improper sensor application
z Intravascular dyes such as indocyanine green or methylene blue
z Abnormal hemoglobin levels
z Low arterial perfusion
z Low arterial oxygen saturation levels including altitude induced hypoxemia
z Elevated total bilirubin levels
z Motion artifact
z SpCO readings may not be provided if SpO2 readings are less than 90%
z SpCO readings may not be provided if SpMet readings are greater than 2%
z Intravascular dyes such as indocyanine green or methylene blue
