ReSposable Sensor Application Guidelines
>The preferred sites are the ring or middle finger of the non-dominant
hand
>Compare the fingers and use the thinnest finger that will completely
cover the detector window
>Use a pediatric sensor (R2-20a/R2-20r) for patients with slender digits
that don’t completely cover the detector window
>Always choose a site that is well perfused and has little motion
>Intravascular dyes or externally applied coloring (such as nail polish)
may lead to inaccurate measurements
>Once the sensor is applied, use the red lines on the sensor to check
alignment; be sure that the emitter is directly over the detector
>In areas with excessive ambient light or monitors which emit bright light,
cover the sensor with a dark or opaque material such as an ambient
light shield
>Connect the sensor to the patient cable following application

ReSposable Sensor Guidelines - Inspection
>The sensor site for ReSposable sensors must be
checked or changed at least every eight (8) hours to
ensure adequate adhesion, circulation, skin
integrity and correct optical alignment
>When changing application sites or reapplying the
adhesive sensor, first disconnect the reusable
sensor from the patient cable and reconnect once
the sensor is repositioned/reapplied to the patient

ReSposable Sensor Guidelines - Caution
>Exercise extreme caution with poorly perfused patients;
skin erosion and/or pressure necrosis can be caused
when the sensor is not frequently moved. Assess site at
least every two (2) hours with poorly perfused patients.
>During low perfusion, the sensor site needs to be
assessed frequently for signs of tissue ischemia, which
can lead to pressure necrosis.
>Do not use tape to secure the sensor to the site; this
can restrict blood flow and cause inaccurate readings.
Use of additional tape can cause skin damage and/or
pressure necrosis or damage the sensor.
>The sensor should be free of visible defects,
discoloration, and damage. Never use a damaged
sensor or one with exposed electrical circuitry.

ReSposable Sensor Assembly
Attach the Reusable Sensor Cable to the Adhesive Sensor
1. Position the adhesive sensor so it lies flat
2. Pick up the reusable sensor and place it over the adhesive sensor
3. Align the gray detector and white emitter over the detector insert and
emitter insert
4. Press the gray detector into the detector insert to lock in place. A clicking
sound occurs when it is locked
5. Press the white emitter into the emitter insert to lock in place. A clicking
sound occurs when it is locked
