During such fluctuation, the N-395 integrates the number of
%SpO
2 points, both positive and negative, until either the
SatSeconds limit (SatSeconds setting) is reached, or the %SpO
2
level returns within a normal range and remains there.
SatSeconds "Safety Net"
The SatSeconds "Safety Net" is for patients with saturation
having frequent excursions below the limit, but not staying
below the limit long enough for the SatSeconds setting to be
reached. When 3 or more limit violations occur in 60 seconds
an alarm will sound even if the SatSeconds setting has not been
reached.
Determining the SatSeconds
The SatSeconds setting may be set at 10, 25, 50, or 100
SatSeconds, or it may be set to OFF. The factory default setting
is “OFF”. The decision to utilize the SatSeconds feature and at
what limit, or not to use it at all, must be made based on the
medical assessment of the patient’s clinical signs and symptoms.
To set the SatSeconds limit:
1. Press the LIMITS softkey.
2. Press the SELECT softkey to move to %SpO
2 SECS.
3. When the %SpO
2 SECS field is highlighted, use the
ADJUST UP or ADJUST DOWN button to select the
desired limit. Choices are: 10, 25, 50, or 100 or OFF.
4. After selecting the SatSeconds limit; press the EXIT
softkey to return to the main display.
