Using the FiO2 monitoring sensor

Use of the FiO monitoring sensor may be recommended by your clinician.
2
Note: It may take up to 15 minutes for the FiO
powering on the device.
The FiO sensor performance can be adversely affected by relative humidity, condensation on the sensor
2
or unknown gas mixtures.
FiO monitoring is affected by changes in ambient and cyclical pressure. This change in monitoring is
2
proportional to the altitude at 3 000m (10 000 ft), the ambient pressure decreases by 30% relative to sea
level and will result in a 30% decrease in monitored FiO
For information on maintenance and disposal of the oxygen sensor, refer to the FiO
for Stellar.
