Design and Construction

The SS-001XC-PS10 has a soft tip sensor design sized for pediatric patients and is designed for use with Nellcor OxiMax SpO2 technology. It has a 3.3 ft (1.0 m) cable and ships one per bag. Because the sensor is reusable, it can be cleaned between patients according to facility protocol and returned to service as long as it passes inspection.

When to Replace Your Pediatric Soft Tip SpO2 Sensor

Take the sensor out of service if the soft tip is torn, stretched, or no longer holds a secure fit, if the cable jacket shows cracks, cuts, or kinks, or if the connector is bent or damaged. Intermittent SpO2 values, repeated sensor-off or weak-signal alarms, and readings that jump when the cable moves are also common signs of wear. Swapping in a known-good sensor on the same monitor is a quick way for biomedical staff to isolate the fault.
