The Radius-7 is a patient wearable device for continuous monitoring when the
patient is ambulatory. It measures arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), pulse rate (PR),
perfusion index (PI), and Pleth Variability Index (PVI®) along with Acoustic
Respiration Rate (RRa®). It uses a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection to transfer
parameter data to Root. When Radius-7 is connected to Root via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi,
the device automatically creates a Window that displays all the data from Radius-7.
Root also acts as a charging station for Radius-7. Radius-7 is docked onto Root via a
Battery Charging Adapter. See Radius-7 Operator's Manual for more information.
