field. If the sensor is exposed to the radiation, the reading might be inaccurate or the device
might read zero for the duration of the active irradiation period.
CAUTION: When patients are undergoing photodynamic therapy they may be sensitive to
light sources. Pulse oximetry may be used only under careful clinical supervision for short
time periods to minimize interference with photodynamic therapy.
CAUTION: High ambient light sources such as surgical lights (especially those with a xenon
light source), bilirubin lamps, fluorescent lights, infrared heating lamps, and direct sunlight
can interfere with the performance of the sensor.
CAUTION: To prevent interference from ambient light, ensure that the sensor is properly
applied, and cover the sensor site with opaque material, if required. Failure to take this
precaution in high ambient light conditions may result in inaccurate measurements.
CAUTION: If the Low Perfusion message is frequently displayed, find a better perfused
monitoring site. In the interim, assess the patient and, if indicated, verify oxygenation status
through other means.
CAUTION: To minimize radio interference, other electrical equipment that emits radio
frequency transmissions should not be in close proximity to Radius-7.
CAUTION: In order to maintain Bluetooth connectivity with Root, ensure that the Radius-7 is

Chapter 1: Technology Overview
The following chapter contains general descriptions about parameters, measurements, and
the technology used by Masimo products.
Signal Extraction Technology® (SET®)
Masimo Signal Extraction Technology's signal processing differs from that of conventional
pulse oximeters. Conventional pulse oximeters assume that arterial blood is the only blood
moving (pulsating) in the measurement site. During patient motion, however, the venous
blood also moves, causing conventional pulse oximeters to read low values, because they
cannot distinguish between the arterial and venous blood movement (sometimes referred to
as noise).
Masimo SET pulse oximetry utilizes parallel engines and adaptive filtering. Adaptive filters
are powerful because they are able to adapt to the varying physiologic signals and/or noise
and separate them by looking at the whole signal and breaking it down to its fundamental
components. The Masimo SET signal processing algorithm, Discrete Saturation Transform®
(DST®), in parallel with Fast Saturation Transform (FST®), reliably identifies the noise,
isolates it and, using adaptive filters, cancels it. It then reports the true arterial oxygen
saturation for display on the monitor.

Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview
Masimo SET® DST
This figure is for conceptual purposes only.
General Description for Oxygen Saturation (SpO2)
Pulse oximetry is governed by the following principles:
•Oxyhemoglobin (oxygenated blood) and deoxyhemoglobin (non-oxygenated
blood) differ in their absorption of red and infrared light (spectrophotometry).
•The amount of arterial blood in tissue changes with your pulse
(photoplethysmography). Therefore, the amount of light absorbed by the varying
quantities of arterial blood changes as well.
Successful Monitoring for SpO2, PR and Pi
Stability of the SpO2 readings may be a good indicator of signal validity. Although stability is
a relative term, experience will provide a good feeling for changes that are artifactual or
physiological and the speed, timing, and behavior of each.
The stability of the readings over time is affected by the averaging time being used. The
longer the averaging time, the more stable the readings tend to become. This is due to a
dampened response as the signal is averaged over a longer period of time than during shorter
averaging times. However, longer averaging times delay the response of the oximeter and
reduce the measured variations of SpO2 and pulse rate.
Functional Oxygen Saturation (SpO2)
The Radius-7 is calibrated to measure and display functional oxygen saturation (SpO2): the
amount of oxyhemoglobin expressed as a percentage of the hemoglobin that is available to
transport oxygen.
Note: Dyshemoglobins are not capable of transporting oxygen, but are recognized as
oxygenated hemoglobins by conventional pulse oximetry.
www.masimo.com 20 Masimo
Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview
General Description for Pulse Rate (PR)
Pulse rate (PR), measured in beats per minute (BPM) is based on the optical detection of
peripheral flow pulse.
General Description for Perfusion Index (Pi)
The Perfusion Index (Pi) is the ratio of the pulsatile blood flow to the non-pulsatile or static
blood in peripheral tissue. Pi thus represents a noninvasive measure of peripheral perfusion
that can be continuously and noninvasively obtained from a pulse oximeter.
General Description for Pleth Variability Index (PVi)
The Pleth Variability Index (PVi) is a measure of the dynamic changes in the Perfusion Index
(Pi) that occur during the respiratory cycle. The calculation is accomplished by measuring
changes in Pi over a time interval where one or more complete respiratory cycles have
occurred. PVi is displayed as a percentage (0-100%).
PVi may show changes that reflect physiological factors such as vascular tone, circulating
blood volume, and intrathoracic pressure excursions.
The utility of PVi has been evaluated in clinical studies [1-11]. Technical and clinical factors
that may affect PVi include probe malposition, probe site, patient motion, skin incision,
spontaneous breathing activity, lung compliance, open pericardium, use of vasopressors or
vasodilators, low perfusion index, subject age, arrhythmias, left or right heart failure, and tidal
volume [12-14].

Signal IQ
The Signal IQ provides an indicator of the assessment of the confidence in the displayed SpO2
value. The SpO
SIQ can also be used to identify the occurrence of a patient’s pulse.

With motion, the plethysmographic waveform is often distorted and may be obscured by
noise artifact. Shown as a vertical line, the SpO

identifies the timing that the algorithms have determined for the arterial pulsation. The
pulse tone (when enabled) coincides with the vertical line of the SpO
SIQ.

The height of the vertical line of the SpO2 SIQ provides an assessment of the confidence in
the measurement displayed. A high vertical bar indicates higher confidence in the
measurement. A small vertical bar indicates lower confidence in the displayed measurement.
When the Signal IQ is very low, this suggests that the accuracy of the displayed measurement
may be compromised. See About the Main Screen on page 42.
rainbow Pulse CO-Oximetry Technology
rainbow Pulse CO-Oximetry technology is governed by the following principles:
1. Oxyhemoglobin (oxygenated blood), deoxyhemoglobin (non-oxygenated blood),
carboxyhemoglobin (blood with carbon monoxide content), methemoglobin
(blood with oxidized hemoglobin) and blood plasma constituents differ in their
absorption of visible and infrared light (using spectrophotometry).
www.masimo.com 22 Masimo
Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview
2. The amount of arterial blood in tissue changes with pulse
(photoplethysmography). Therefore, the amount of light absorbed by the varying
quantities of arterial blood changes as well.
The Radius-7 uses a multi-wavelength sensor to distinguish between oxygenated blood,
deoxygenated blood, blood with carbon monoxide, oxidized blood and blood plasma.
The Radius-7 utilizes a sensor with various light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that pass light
through the site to a diode (detector). Signal data is obtained by passing various visible and
infrared lights (LEDs, 500 to 1400nm) through a capillary bed (for example, a fingertip, a
hand, a foot) and measuring changes in light absorption during the blood pulsatile cycle. This
information may be useful to clinicians. The maximum radiant power of the strongest light is
rated at ≤ 25 mW. The detector receives the light, converts it into an electronic signal and
sends it to the Radius-7 for calculation.

Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview
Once Radius-7 receives the signal from the sensor, it utilizes proprietary algorithms to
calculate the patient’s functional oxygen saturation (SpO
carboxyhemoglobin saturation (SpCO [%]), methemoglobin saturation (SpMet [%]), total
[%]), blood levels of
2
hemoglobin concentration (SpHb [g/dL]) and pulse rate (PR). The SpCO, SpMet and SpHb
measurements rely on a multi-wavelength calibration equation to quantify the percentage of
carbon monoxide and methemoglobin and the concentration of total hemoglobin in arterial
blood. Maximum skin-sensor interface temperature was tested to be less than 41º C (106º F)
in a minimum ambient temperature of 35º C (95º F). The tests were conducted with sensors
operating at reasonable worst case power.
Pulse CO-Oximetry vs. Drawn Whole Blood Measurements
When SpO2, SpCO, SpMet, and SpHb measurements obtained from the Radius-7
(noninvasive) are compared to drawn whole blood (invasive) measurements by blood gas
and/or laboratory CO-Oximetry methods, caution should be taken when evaluating and
interpreting the results.
The blood gas and/or laboratory CO-Oximetry measurements may differ from the SpO
SpMet, SpHb, and SpOC measurements of the Radius-7. Any comparisons should be
simultaneous, meaning the measurement on the device should be noted at the exact time
that blood is drawn.
In the case of SpO
the calculated measurement is not appropriately corrected for the effects of variables that

2
In the case of SpCO, different results are also expected if the level of methemoglobin (MetHb)
in the blood gas sample is abnormal (greater than 2% for MetHb).
In the case of SpHb, variation in hemoglobin measurements may be profound and may be
affected by sampling technique as well as the patient's physiological conditions. Any results
exhibiting inconsistency with the patient's clinical status should be repeated and/or
supplemented with additional test data. As with most hemoglobin tests, a laboratory blood
sample should be analyzed prior to clinical decision making.

General Description for Total Hemoglobin (SpHb)
Pulse CO-Oximetry is a continuous and noninvasive method of measuring the levels of total
hemoglobin (SpHb) in arterial blood. It relies on the same principles of pulse oximetry to
make its SpHb measurement.
www.masimo.com 24 Masimo
Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview
Successful Monitoring for SpHb
A stable SpHb reading is associated with correct sensor placement, small physiological
changes during the measurement and acceptable levels of arterial perfusion at the
measurement site. Physiological changes at the measurement site are mainly caused by
fluctuations in the oxygen saturation, blood concentration and perfusion. See Safety Information, Warnings and Cautions on page 11 and Troubleshooting Measurements on
page 71.
General Description for SpOC
The above approximations result in the following reduced equation for oxygen content via the
Pulse CO-Oximeter:
SpOC (ml/dL*) = 1.31 (ml O
*When ml O2/g Hb is multiplied by g/dL of SpHb, the gram unit in the denominator of ml/g
cancels the gram unit in the numerator of g/dL resulting in ml/dL (ml of oxygen in one dL of
blood) as the unit of measure for SpOC. See Safety Information, Warnings and Cautions on
page 11.

General Description for Carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO)
Pulse CO-Oximetry is a continuous and noninvasive method of measuring the levels of
carboxyhemoglobin saturation (SpCO) in arterial blood. It relies on the same basic principles
of pulse oximetry (spectrophotometry) to make its SpCO measurement.
The measurement is obtained by placing a sensor on a patient, usually on the fingertip for
adults and the hand or foot for infants. The sensor connects either directly to the Pulse
CO-Oximetry device or through a device patient cable.
The sensor collects signal data from the patient and sends it to the device. The device
displays the calculated data as percentage value for the SpCO, which reflect blood levels of
carbon monoxide bound to hemoglobin.
Successful Monitoring for SpCO
A stable SpCO reading is associated with correct sensor placement, small physiological
changes during the measurement and acceptable levels of arterial perfusion in the patient's
fingertip (measurement site). Physiological changes at the measurement site are mainly
caused by fluctuations in the oxygen saturation, blood concentration and perfusion.
General Description for Methemoglobin (SpMet)
Pulse CO-Oximetry is a continuous and noninvasive method of measuring the levels of
methemoglobin saturation (SpMet) in arterial blood. It relies on the same basic principles of
pulse oximetry (spectrophotometry) to make its SpMet measurement.
The measurement is obtained by placing a sensor on a patient, usually on the fingertip for
adults and the hand or foot for infants. The sensor connects either directly to the Pulse
CO-Oximetry device or through a patient cable.

The sensor collects signal data from the patient and sends it to the device. The device
displays the calculated data as percentage value for the SpMet.
Successful Monitoring for SpMet
A stable SpMet reading is associated with correct sensor placement, small physiological
changes during the measurement and acceptable levels of arterial perfusion in the patient’s
fingertip (measurement site).
Physiological changes at the measurement site are mainly caused by fluctuations in the
oxygen saturation, blood concentration and perfusion. See Safety Information, Warnings and Cautions on page 11.
SpCO, SpMet, and SpHb Measurements During Patient Motion
The Radius-7 displays measurements of SpCO, SpMet, and SpHb during patient motion.
However, because of the changes in the physiological parameters such as blood volume,
arterial-venous coupling, etc. that occur during patient motion, the accuracy of such
measurements may not be reliable during excessive motion. In this case, the measurement
value for SpCO, SpMet, or SpHb displays as dashes (---) and a message (Low SpCO SIQ, Low
SpMet SIQ, or Low SpHb SIQ) displays to alert the clinician that the device does not have
confidence in the value due to poor signal quality caused by excessive motion or other signal
interference.
rainbow Acoustic Monitoring™ (RAM™)
rainbow Acoustic Monitoring (RAM) continuously measures a patient’s respiration rate based
on airflow sounds generated in the upper airway. The Acoustic Sensor, which is applied on the
patient's neck, translates airflow sounds generated in the upper airway to an electrical signal
that can be processed to produce a respiration rate, measured as breaths per minute.
Respiratory sounds include sounds related to respiration such as breath sounds (during
inspiration and expiration), adventitious sounds, cough sounds, snoring sounds, sneezing
sounds, and sounds from the respiratory muscles [1].
These respiratory sounds often have different characteristics depending on the location of
recording [2] and they originate in the large airways where air velocity and air turbulence
induce vibration in the airway wall. These vibrations are transmitted, for example, through
the lung tissue, thoracic wall and trachea to the surface where they may be heard with the aid
of a stethoscope, a microphone or more sophisticated devices.
www.masimo.com 26 Masimo
Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview

The following figure illustrates how a respiratory sound produced by a patient can be turned
into a numerical measurement that corresponds to a respiratory parameter.

Patient
The generation of respiratory sounds is primarily related to turbulent respiratory airflow in
upper airways. Sound pressure waves within the airway gas and airway wall motion contribute
to the vibrations that reach the body surface and are recorded as respiratory sounds.
Although the spectral shape of respiratory sounds varies widely from person to person, it is
often reproducible within the same person, likely reflecting the strong influence of individual
airway anatomy [2-6].
Sensor
The sensor captures respiratory sounds (and other biological sounds) much like a microphone
does. When subjected to a mechanical strain, (e.g., surface vibrations generated during
breathing), the sensor becomes electrically polarized.
The degree of polarization is proportional to the applied strain. The output of the sensor is an
electric signal that includes a sound signal that is modulated by inspiratory and expiratory
phases of the respiratory cycle.
Acquisition System
The acquisition system converts the electric signal provided by the sensor into a digital
signal. This format allows the signal to be processed by a computing device.
www.masimo.com 27 Masimo
Radius-7 Chapter 1: Technology Overview
Signal Processing
The digital signal produced by the acquisition system is converted into a measurement that
corresponds to the respiratory parameter of interest. As shown in the previous figure, this can
be performed by, for example, determining the digital signal envelope or outline which in turn
may be utilized to determine the respiratory rate. In this way, a real-time, continuous breath
rate parameter can be obtained and displayed on a monitor which, in many cases, may be
real-time and continuous.
The respiratory cycle envelope signal processing principle is similar to methods that sample
airway gasses and subsequently determine a respiratory rate.

Radius-7 Chapter 4: Operation
Note: After approximately 10 seconds without interaction, the Action Menu will retract.
Sensitivity Modes Overview
Three sensitivity levels enable a clinician to tailor the response of Radius-7 to the needs of
the particular patient situation. Sensitivity Modes are accessed through the Action Menu or
through Additional Settings. See About the Action Menu on page 43 or Additional Settings
on page 45.
The sensitivity levels are as follows:
•NORM (Normal Sensitivity)
NORM is the recommended sensitivity mode for patients who are experiencing
some compromise in blood flow or perfusion. It is advisable for care areas where
patients are observed frequently, such as an intensive care unit (ICU).
•APOD® (Adaptive Probe Off Detection® Sensitivity)
APOD is the recommended sensitivity mode for situations which there is a high
probability of the sensor becoming detached. It is also the suggested mode for
care areas where patients are not visually monitored continuously. This mode
delivers enhanced protection against erroneous pulse rate and arterial oxygen
saturation readings when a sensor becomes inadvertently detached from a patient
due to excessive movement.
•MAX (Maximum Sensitivity)
MAX is the recommended sensitivity mode for patients with low perfusion or when
a low perfusion message displays in APOD or NORM mode. MAX mode is not
recommended for care areas where patients are not monitored visually, such as
medical-surgical floors. It is designed to display data at the measuring site when
the signal may be weak due to decreased perfusion. When a sensor becomes
detached from a patient, it will have compromised protection against erroneous
pulse rate and arterial saturation readings.

FastSat Overview
FastSat enables rapid tracking of arterial oxygen saturation changes. Arterial oxygen
saturation data is averaged using pulse oximeter averaging algorithms to smooth the trend.
When Radius-7 is set to FastSat On, the averaging algorithm evaluates all saturation values,
providing an averaged saturation value that is a better representation of the patient’s current
oxygenation status. With FastSat set to On, the averaging time is dependent on the input
signal.

About Alarms
The Radius-7 visually and audibly indicates alarm conditions that the system detects. Audible
alarms may be silenced, without affecting the operation of visual alarms. See Safety Information, Warnings and Cautionson page 11.
Alarm Priorities
There are two priorities for alarms:
• High
• Medium
The following are the audible and visual characteristics for different alarm priorities:
In order to minimize accidental changes to Radius-7's critical settings, alarm management is
restricted to Root.
When Radius-7 is connected to Root, audible alarms will sound on Root but not Radius-7. In
this case, audible alarms can be temporarily silenced on Root. Visual alarms will display on
both Radius-7 and Root until the alarm condition has been addressed. For alarm
management on Root, see Operator’s Manual for Root.
When Radius-7 is not connected to Root, audible alarms will sound on Radius-7. Audible
alarms can be temporarily silenced by touching and holding the Touchpad for 2 seconds.
Visual alarms will continue to display on Radius-7 until the alarm condition has been
addressed.
When Radius-7 is connected to Patient SafetyNet (and not communicating to Root through
Bluetooth), audible alarms will sound on Radius-7 and Patient SafetyNet. Audible alarms can
be temporarily silenced by touching and holding the Touchpad on Radius-7 for 2 seconds.
Visual alarms will continue to display on Radius-7 until the alarm condition has been
addressed.
Note: In the event of temporary loss of power to Radius-7, the Root will restore alarm setting
to Radius-7 through the re-established Bluetooth connection. If the Radius-7 is used without

default.

About Desat Index
The 3D Desat Index Alarm allows a clinician to request audible and visual alarms if a patient
experiences a specified number of desaturations beyond a defined level from the patient's
baseline saturation over a specific period of time.
Traditional high and low SpO
user-selected thresholds. These thresholds are typically established to detect significant
changes from patients’ baseline saturation levels. However, in select patient populations,
substantial desaturation events that remain above a typical low alarm limit threshold may be
preceded by a cycle of smaller transient desaturations over a limited period of time. The
ability to alert clinicians when a cycle of smaller transient desaturations occur may provide
an earlier indication of a potential significant decline in patient status, allowing for more
focused monitoring and/or a change in treatment.
To address the select patient populations in which detecting a cycle of transient
desaturations may be helpful, set a 3D Desat Index Alarm.

About Pi Delta
The Perfusion Index (Pi) Delta Alarm allows a clinician to request audible and visual alarms if
perfusion at the monitored site decreases by a specified level (delta) over a specific period of
time.
Perfusion Index gives an indication of the level of perfusion at the monitored site. Radius-7
measures perfusion at the monitored SpO
non-pulsatile signal, and expressing that ratio as a percentage. Pi has been clinically proven
to be useful as a predictor of the level of illness in neonates and adults. It has also been
shown that Pi may change dramatically in response to sympathetic changes caused by
inhalational agents and pain stimulation.* If Pi decreases over time, there may be underlying

Pi Delta audibly and visually alerts the user to important changes in a patient's perfusion, as
compared to the patient’s baseline Pi rate. The baseline is set by Radius-7 once the user has
enabled the alarm and represents 30 seconds of currently averaged Pi. To set a Pi Delta
alarm, see Pi Delta on page 66. The feature includes a user-selectable Pi Delta Alarm. This
allows the clinician to request an audible and visual alarm if perfusion at the monitored site
decreases by a specified level (delta) over a specified window of time. Three of the variables
are selectable by the user within established ranges as noted in Pi Delta Alarms.
