INTENDED USE AND INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Oxxiom Pulse Oximetry System is a wireless, fully
disposable, single-use device indicated for measuring,
displaying, and storing functional oxygen saturation of
arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR). It may
be used for spot checking, intermittent monitoring, and/or
data collection of patients 12 years and older in low acuity
settings in facilities such as hospitals, clinics, and doctor’s
offices. It can also be used in home healthcare settings
under prescription use. It is not intended for continuous
monitoring.

Keep it outside of the MRI scanner room.
2.Explosion Hazard: Do not use Oxxiom in an explosive
atmosphere.
3.Do not use Oxxiom in the presence of flammable
anesthetics or gases.
4.Oxxiom is intended for single-use only. Do not gas
sterilize or autoclave Oxxiom. Do not expose or
immerse Oxxiom in any liquids. Do not use caustic or

1.The device is not intended for critical care monitoring or
situations when saturations less than 85% are
anticipated.
2.Oxxiom is not intended for use as a diagnostic tool. It
is an adjunctive device that must be used in conjunction
with other methods of assessing clinical signs and
symptoms.
3.Do not modify Oxxiom in any way. Maintenance is not
required.
4.The operation of this device may be affected when near
an electrosurgical unit.
5.The wireless path must be unobstructed. The iOS host
device must be within 10 meters (33 feet) of the
Oxxiom device. Oxxiom is not intended for use in
remote monitoring.
6.Exposure of Oxxiom’s optical detector to direct sunlight
or strong ambient light will cause malfunction.
WARNINGS

© 2016-2020 True Wearables, Inc. UMD-0001 REV D 7
7.Oxxiom is a single-use disposable device that uses a
non-rechargeable LiMnO2 battery. Do not attempt to
remove or recharge the battery or disassemble/repair
the device in any way. Do not expose the battery to
heat or open flames.
8.Dispose of Oxxiom properly. Batteries can leak or
explode if used or disposed of improperly. Follow local
ordinances for disposal.
9.Battery life may be significantly shortened by being in
stand-by mode for an extended amount of time.
10.Oxxiom is a wireless device. Other equipment may
interfere with this device, even if they comply with
CISPR emission requirements. The wireless
connection between the Oxxiom device and the iOS
device may be affected by other Bluetooth audio
equipment also connected to the same iOS device.
WARNINGS, CONT.

1.This device has been tested and found to comply with
IEC 60601-1-2 for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
for medical electrical equipment and/or systems. This
standard is designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in healthcare settings.
Because of the increased number of radiofrequency
transmitting equipment and other interference sources
in the environment of operation, high interference levels
might occur and disrupt the operation of this device.
2.If Oxxiom appears damaged or if Oxxiom fails to
respond as described, discontinue use immediately and
replace the device.
3.Minimize motion of measurement site. Oxxiom may
misinterpret motion as good pulse quality.
4.Oxxiom’s principle of operation is based on the
reflectance of red and infrared light. Intravascular dyes,
dyshemoglobinemia (dysfunctional hemoglobin), and
finger deformities and calluses may affect SpO2
accuracy or make readings unreliable.
PRECAUTIONS

© 2016-2020 True Wearables, Inc. UMD-0001 REV D 9
5.Do not shower, bathe, or swim with Oxxiom. The
device is not waterproof and may malfunction if
immersed in water or exposed to high levels of heat or
humidity.
6.Oxxiom may not work on cold extremities due to
reduced circulation. Warm or rub the extremity to
increase circulation.
7.Finger deformities and calluses may cause inaccurate
readings.
8.Inspect the measurement site at least every 8 hours to
ensure correct device placement, following these steps:
(a)Remove self-adhering breathable gentle tape from
the patient’s finger.
(b)Inspect Oxxiom device to make sure it is placed
correctly on the fingertip. Adjust if necessary.
(c)Wrap (same or new) breathable gentle tape around
Oxxiom and fingertip. Aim for a comfortable, snug
fit.
PRECAUTIONS, CONT.

9.Excessive pressure to the measurement site may
damage tissue or make measurements inaccurate.
10.Some patients’ skin may be sensitive to the Oxxiom
tape and/or adhesive.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION
11
Oxxiom Pulse Oximetry System is a wireless, fully
disposable, single patient use device for measuring and
displaying functional oxygen saturation of arterial
hemoglobin (SpO2), pulse rate (PR) and pulse amplitude
(PA).
Oxxiom has two main components, the Oxxiom device
(hardware device) and the Oxxiom Rx App. Oxxiom does
not have a dedicated display or alarm system. It requires
a handheld iOS device for use. The iOS device can be an
iPhone, iPad, or iPod device with iOS version 10.1 or
later.
Oxxiom is small, lightweight, and has a maximum
duration of 24 hours of use. The device simultaneously
and wirelessly transfers all collected data to the Oxxiom
Rx App on the iOS device, which analyzes data, displays
information, provides warnings as necessary, and stores
the information.

The Principle of Operation is based upon the reflectance
of light.
Epidermis
Dermis
Oxxiom
Red and Infrared
lights are
applied to the
measurement site
by the light emitter
The red and infrared light rays penetrate the
blood perfused dermis and interact with the
heart’s pulsatile signal in order to create red and
infrared optical pulsatile signals
The optical pulsatile signals
(photoplethysmographs) are
captured by the light detector,
filtered, and conditioned to
produce readings of SpO2,
PR, and PA

The main features of Oxxiom Pulse Oximetry System
include the following:
• Wireless measurement of oxygen saturation of arterial
hemoglobin (SpO2), pulse rate (PR), and pulse
amplitude (PA).
• Warnings, visual and audible.
• Voice-based measurements for SpO2, PR, and PA
every 30, 60, or 120 seconds.
• Storage and data sharing for measurement trends on
SpO2, PR, and PA (12, 24, 36, or 48 hours) and
waveforms (last 12 hours).

Definition of featured measurements
• SpO2 is the functional saturation of peripheral oxygen.
It is the percentage ratio of oxygenated hemoglobin
concentration over the total concentration of
oxygenated and non-oxygenated hemoglobin.
• Pulse Rate, PR, is the number of heartbeats per
minute.
• Pulse Amplitude, PA, is the normalized peak-to-peak
amplitude of the pulsatile signals (plethysmographs)
generated at the measurement site by the heart activity,
and detected by an optical device
(photoplethysmographs). PA values range from 0.02%
(very weak pulsatile signal) to 20% (very strong
pulsatile signal.).
• Waveforms are the pulsatile signals generated at the
measurement site by the heart activity, and detected by
an optical device (photoplethysmographs). Motion in
the measurement site affects the displayed
photoplethysmographs.

Measurement site
• Oxxiom has been tested on a subject population with
the device placed on the finger.
Pros
Cons
• Convenient for patient
in prone or supine
position.
• Higher perfusion in
warm environment.
• Strong vasoconstrictor
response to cold.
• Skin callouses and
deformities may cause
false readings.
• Proper pressure from
tape wrapped around
finger is important.
• Monitoring at other sites of the body is NOT
RECOMMENDED. Performance at other sites than the
finger has not been validated.
• Minimize sunlight exposure to Oxxiom device with the
provided tape. An extra covering may be needed.
