the number


When you look at a patient your intuition gives you clues right away. You need a monitor that backs up that intuition with accurate data you can believe every time. No false reassurance.

Even when you’re dealing with low perfusion or patient movement, Nellcor™ pulse oximetry with OxiMax™ technology is designed to deliver accurate values.1,2,5-7 So, you can rely on the number to make your care decisions.

Nellcor™ pulse oximetry with OxiMax™ technology. Believe it.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CLINICALLY VALIDATED EVEN UNDER THE

MOST CHALLENGING CONDITIONS


Extensive clinical testing

Over 30 years of proven technology



Independent validation

95%+ specificity detecting hypoxia and severe hypoxia during motion1



LoSat™ expanded accuracy

OxiMax™ monitoring technology delivers accurate readings in the standard range of 70% to 100% SpO2, and offers LoSat™ expanded accuracy to 60% SpO21,2



The pulse is the foundation

of pulse oximetry


Nellcor™ pulse oximetry was at the forefront of developing pulse oximetry technology — with the pulse at its foundation. While other technologies have been developed over the last few decades, none can replicate our proprietary algorithm that ties our readings to the source — the pulse of your patients. That’s what makes our technology unique — and consistently accurate.

A competing technology uses a calculated pulse rate to generate the pulse tone. In certain conditions, a tone is generated even when there is no pulse for up to eight seconds.3



 

SPEED TO POST

WHEN IT MATTERS MOST.


With all of your patients — especially with neonates — every second counts. A Medtronic analysis of studies4,5 shows that Nellcor™ pulse oximetry posted data several seconds faster than other, similar pulse oximeters.
