philips spo2 reusable sensor models m1196a and m1196t

Philips Medical Systems

Summary: The Philips SpO2 reusable sensor models M1196A and M1196T are medical devices used to measure blood oxygen saturation levels. They are commonly used by healthcare professionals in various clinical settings to monitor patients' respiratory status.

FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date November 9, 2006
Product Code DQA
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 419 studies

The Philips SpO2 reusable sensor models M1196A and M1196T were cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on November 9, 2006. Manufactured by Philips Medical Systems, these devices are classified as Class 2 under product code DQA.

What It Is

The Philips SpO2 reusable sensors are designed to non-invasively measure the oxygen saturation of arterial blood. These sensors work by emitting light through a patient's skin and measuring the amount of light absorbed by oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin. This information is then used to calculate the patient's blood oxygen levels, providing critical data for assessing respiratory function.

Clinical Applications

These sensors are commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings to monitor patients with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions. They are essential in operating rooms, intensive care units, and emergency departments for continuous monitoring of patients' oxygen saturation. Pediatric and adult patients alike can benefit from these sensors, making them versatile tools in various medical specialties.

Indications for Use

The Philips SpO2 sensors are indicated for monitoring blood oxygen levels in patients who require continuous or spot-checking of their respiratory status. They are particularly useful for patients with conditions affecting breathing or circulation, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or during anesthesia.

Practical Considerations

These sensors are available in different sizes to fit a range of patients from pediatric to adult. They are compatible with Philips patient monitoring systems and should be used according to the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure accurate readings. Proper placement on the patient's finger or earlobe is crucial for reliable measurements.
