This Pulse Oximeter Instructions for Use explains how to use the Pulse Oximeter to measure your blood oxygen level (%SpO2) and pulse rate from the comfort and convenience of your home. It also explains how to maintain, clean, and troubleshoot the Pulse Oximeter and gives a number of safety precautions you should follow to assure safe, reliable and accurate measurements. In only a few minutes every day you can provide these measurements to your healthcare provider so that he/she can make better decisions about your care. In this way, you are providing information that can help improve your health care and quality of life. How the System Works With this system, the Pulse Oximeter measurements are immediately sent to your Home Hub or TeleStation, which then automatically transmits them over your telephone line to your healthcare provider’s computer. While the system uses your telephone to transmit the measurement, feel free to talk on you phone at any time -- the system is “smart” enough to know when the phone line is open. It will wait and then send the information after you hang up. Keeping the System Working If at any time you suspect something is wrong with the Pulse Oximeter or any part of the Telemonitoring System, immediately contact your healthcare provider. Philips will replace any defective device. You can also cross-check your results with another Pulse Oximeter if additional measurement devices of the same type are available to you. Thank You! Thank you for taking an active role in your home healthcare plan. Philips and your healthcare provider applaud your efforts to actively participate in you health care plan.

Pulse Oximeter Components The Pulse Oximeter is a plastic display case with a finger-clip sensor attached to it. The front of the case has the following elements, as shown in the figure below. The rear of the case has a compartment for batteries that power the device. Display: an LED display window shows the blood oxygen level (%SpO2) and pulse rate (in beats per minute) measured from the end of your finger. LEDs below the display window light to indicate which measurement is being displayed -- %SpO2 or pulse. START button: pushing this button causes the Pulse Oximeter to begin taking a measurement. Radio Test button: this button is used to test the transmission of measurements from the Pulse Oximeter to the Home Hub or TeleStation. Finger-clip sensor: This sensor is used to measure your blood oxygen level and pulse rate. The sensor is clipped on the end of one of your fingers. The Finger-clip contains an LED light source that shines light on your finger. Light transmitted through the blood in your finger is received by a photo sensitive element and electronics in the display case uses the transmitted light to determine your blood oxygen level and pulse rate. Display Radio Test button START button Finger-clip sensor Measurement The following steps describe how to use the Pulse Oximeter to measure your blood oxygen level (%SpO2) and pulse rate. 1. Sit within 20 ft. of the Home Hub or TeleStation with your hand resting on a flat surface and the Pulse Oximeter in front of you. 2. Open the sensor and fully insert your finger (index, middle, or ring, but not your thumb) until the end of your finger reaches the finger stop. The cable should extend over your finger toward your wrist as shown in the figure. 3. Sit comfortably with your hand resting on the surface so that it can remain still. 4. Press the START button and hold your hand still during the measurement. Notes: • Use the same finger each time you make a measurement unless your health care provider instructs otherwise. - A tick sounds as the % SpO2 measurement displays and the yellow light next to % SpO2 illuminates. • Do not use the sensor on a finger that has chronic poor circulation or is injured. • Avoid wearing dark fingernail polish (particularly blues and blacks) that may reduce light transmission and affect measurement accuracy. • Avoid using the sensor in sunlight or bright lights. • Do not use the Pulse Oximeter with the battery door open - A tock sounds as the pulse rate displays and the green light next to pulse illuminates. The measurement process is as follows: - Dashes move across the display during measurement. - The tick-tock sequence repeats several times and then turns off. Note: If the measurement was not made, a long beep sounds and displays. - A double beep sounds after a few seconds indicating that the measurement is complete. Warm your hand or use a different finger and try again. Maintenance This section gives guidelines on how to maintain the Pulse Oximeter, including how to clean and store it and how to replace the batteries. Taking proper care of the devices will help keep it in good working order. Cleaning You generally need to clean the Pulse Oximeter only when it appears to be dirty. However, it is very important to keep the inside of the Finger-clip sensor clean, especially where the light shines through your finger. Caution: • Avoid spilling liquids on the device. • Do not immerse this device in liquids to clean. • Do not use harsh chemicals, caustic, or abrasive cleaning agents to clean the device. The following steps describe how to clean the Pulse Oximeter and sensor. 1. Unplug the Home Hub or TeleStation from power and phone lines. 2.Remove the batteries from the Pulse Oximeter.

(370 gm) 13 Electromagnetic Compatibility Electromagnetic Compatibility Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of equipment to function satisfactorily in the presence of radio frequency (RF) energy from devices such as cordless and cellular telephones or other RF transmitting equipment. The Pulse Oximeter was tested according to the international safety standards for EMC of medical electrical equipment. See the Manufacturer’s Declaration for details. EMC Testing The M3814 Pulse Oximeter was subjected to both international standard and Philips proprietary tests. During the testing to the Telemonitoring Device Interference Level (Volts per meter*) requirements of the medical safety standard IEC/EN 60601-1-2 (first edition), some anomalies were observed as described below. If you observe any abnormal operation of the devices, please see Avoiding Electromagnetic Interference Problems later in this section. The M3814A Pulse Oximeter may also exhibit sensitivity to electrostatic discharges as low as + x.xx kV to nearby objects or interconnecting cables. Electrostatic sensitivity does not put critical patient data at risk and normal operation is restored after approximately xxx minutes without user interaction. Measurements stored in the M3814A are retrieved following device recovery. Observed Performance Degradation Caused by the Stated Interference Level Pulse Oximeter M3814A * Interference levels are measured in Volts per meter. A cellular telephone operating at a typical transmitting power of 0.1 watts will produce an interference level of 1 Volt per meter at a distance of 1 meter from the cellular telephone’s antenna. Please see Avoiding Electromagnetic Interference Problems later in this section. 14 moved away to reduce their interference to your Pulse Oximeter. Avoiding Electromagnetic Interference Problems Possible sources of interfering radio frequency energy are cellular telephones, cordless telephones, and other products containing radio transmitters. In addition, the Pulse Oximeter and M3812A Home Hub or M3812B TeleStation can be placed closer to each other so that the radio transmission from the Pulse Oximeter to the M3812A Home Hub or M3812B TeleStation has less distance to travel and interfering radio signals have less effect. The radio transmissions from the Pulse Oximeter are repeated periodically, so an intermittent source of interference should only delay reception. The M3814A has a Radio Test button that sends a reduced strength radio test signal to the M3184A Home Hub or the M3812B TeleStation and sounds an audio tone if the test signal is successfully received. This test can be used to determine whether sources of interference are present. These sources can be turned off or Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the Philips Telemonitoring System The Philips Telemonitoring System is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Philips Telemonitoring System can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Philips Telemonitoring System as recommended below, according to maximum output power of the communications equipment. Rated maximum output power of transmitter Watts 0.01 0.1 10 100 Separation distance (in meters) according to frequency of transmitter 26 to 800 MHz 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz 3.5 11 35 110 350 22 70 220 700 These guidelines may not always apply. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects, and people 15 FCC Regulations The M3814A Pulse Oximeter has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. The M3814A Pulse Oximeter generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used according to instructions, it may interfere with radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur if the equipment is properly installed. 16 If the M3814A Pulse Oximeter causes interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct it by: • relocating the Home Hub or TeleStation, • increasing the separation between the Pulse Oximeter or the Home Hub or TeleStation and the device being interfered with, for example, a TV, • consulting your healthcare provider. Note: Any changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly approved by Philips could void the user’s authority to operate it.
