Safety Warnings and Precautions All operating personnel should be familiarized with the general safety information in this summary. Specific warnings and cautions are also found throughout this Operator's Manual. Such specific warnings and cautions may not appear here in this summary.
General Warnings THE WELCH ALLYN SPOT VITAL SIGNS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE USED ON NEONATAL PATIENTS. Welch Allyn defines neonates as children 28 days or less of age if born at term (37 weeks gestation or more); otherwise up to 44 gestational weeks. This definition comes from the AAMI SP10 1992 standard. To ensure pediatric blood pressure accuracy and safety, note that the Welch Allyn Small Adult Cuff (5200-03), the Welch Allyn Small Child One-Piece Cuff (5200-13), or the Welch Allyn Small Child Cuff Disposable One-Piece (5083-93-3) are the SMALLEST CUFFS approved for use with young children and infants. The circumference of the child’s arm must fit within the range markings on the cuff. The Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs is designed for use by medical clinicians. Although this manual may illustrate medical spot check techniques, only a trained clinician who knows how to take and interpret a patient’s vital signs should use this system. The information in this Operator's Manual is a comprehensive guide to the operation of the Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs. To achieve satisfactory results, you should read the manual thoroughly before attempting to use the device. The Spot Vital Signs is not intended for continuous monitoring and is therefore not defibrillator proof. Do not leave the device unattended while taking measurements on a patient. To insure patient safety, use only accessories and supplies (i.e., cuffs, hoses, temperature probes, SpO2 sensors, etc.) recommended or supplied by Welch Allyn for the Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs. See “Supplies And Accessories” on page 48. Do not operate the Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs in the presence of flammable anesthetics or other explosive atmosphere. An explosion may result. Avoid compression of the pneumatic tubing of the Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs. Compression of the tubing may cause system errors to occur in the device.

Blood Pressure Warnings •
To ensure pediatric blood pressure accuracy and safety, note that the Welch Allyn Small Cuff (5200-03), the Welch Allyn Small Child One-Piece Cuff (5200-13), or the Welch Allyn Small Child Disposable One-Piece (5083-93-3) are the SMALLEST CUFFS approved for use with young children and infants. The circumference of the child’s arm must fit within the range markings on the cuff. • You may experience inaccurate blood pressure measurements if cuffs and/or hoses other than those provided for the Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs by Welch Allyn are used. • Patients that are experiencing moderate to severe arrhythmias may give inaccurate blood pressure measurements. • When several blood pressure measurements are taken on the same patient, it is recommended that the cuff site and extremity are regularly checked for possible ischemia, purpura, and/or neuropathy.
SpO2 Warnings •
The operation of the SpO2 sensor in MRI environments is specifically not recommended.

•
•
Use only SpO2 sensors and accessories that are compatible with the SpO2 configuration purchased. The Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs with Nellcor Puritan Bennett™ pulse oximetry option may only be used with Nellcor Puritan Bennett™ brand sensors and accessories. The SpO2 sensor and extension cables are intended for use only for pulse oximetry measurements. Do not attempt to connect these cables to a PC or any similar device.
Temperature Warnings •
Single-use, disposable probe covers, available from Welch Allyn, limit patient crosscontamination. The use of any other probe cover or the failure to use a probe cover may produce temperature errors and is specifically not recommended. • Use only oral probes (blue) for taking oral and axillary temperatures. Only use rectal probes (red) for taking rectal temperatures only. The use of the wrong probe may produce temperature errors. • Do not allow the tip of the temperature probe to come into contact with any heat source (e.g., hands or fingers) prior to taking a temperature measurement. If this occurs, discard the probe cover and start the temperature determination again.
IrDA Communications Port Warnings •
The Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs contains an infrared communications port for isolated communications with the external printer (see order catalog) or with a PC. The port is located on the side of the device to preclude direct eye contact on a continual basis when viewing the display. As a precaution, do not look directly into the infrared port during operation.
General Cautions •
If the accuracy of any measurement is in question, check the patient's vital sign(s) by an alternate method, then check to make sure the device is functioning properly. • Insure the device is placed on a secure surface or use one of the optional mounting accessories. • Do not place fluids on the device.
Blood Pressure Cautions • •
Extremity and cuff motion should be minimized during blood pressure determinations. If the blood pressure cuff is not at heart level, the difference in reading due to the hydrostatic effect should be noted. The value of 1.80 mmHg must be added to the displayed reading for every inch (2.5 cm) above heart level. The value of 1.80 mmHg must be subtracted from the displayed reading for every inch (2.5 cm) below heart level. • Proper blood pressure cuff size and placement is essential to the accuracy of the blood pressure determination. See “Chart for Determining Cuff Size” on page 29 for cuff sizing information. • When measuring blood pressure on children younger than 3 years of age it is recommended that the Pressure Preset (initial inflation pressure) be set at 160 mmHg or lower.

SpO2 Cautions •
The pulse oximeter is calibrated to determine the percentage of arterial oxygen saturation of functional hemoglobin. Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobin such as carboyhemoglobin or methmoglobin may affect the accuracy of the measurement. Some intravascular dyes, depending on the concentration, may affect the accuracy of the SpO2 measurement. Some sensors may not be appropriate for a particular patient. If at least 10 seconds of perfusion pulses cannot be observed for a given sensor, change sensor location or sensor type for perfusion to resume.
• •
Temperature Cautions •
Normal mode (10 second) axillary temperatures are FDA approved only for children under the age of four. Normal mode axillary temperatures may not be accurate on older children or adults. THE WELCH ALLYN SPOT VITAL SIGNS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE USED ON NEONATAL PATIENTS.

Blood Pressure Measurements A single blood pressure determination is made when the Blood Pressure Start/Stop button is pushed. To cancel a measurement cycle at any time, press the Blood Pressure Start/ Stop button again. This action immediately initiates a rapid cuff deflation. The blood pressure measurement data appears on the display immediately following the measurement, and remains displayed for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, the display goes blank, and the device goes into standby mode. To recall the most recent blood pressure measurement, press the Print, Mode, Next Patient/Clear or Blood Pressure Start/Stop button.
Maximum and Minimum Blood Pressure Ranges The maximum and minimum blood pressure ranges are as follows: Measurement
Maximum
Minimum
Systolic Pressure
250 mmHg
60 mmHg
Diastolic Pressure
160mmHg
30 mmHg
Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) The MAP ranges are 40 to 190mmHg, calculated from systolic and diastolic data (not directly measured).
Temperature Operating Modes Thermometry measurements are made with Welch Allyn SureTemp™ technology. Oral and rectal probes utilize single-use disposable probe covers that limit cross-contamination. Oral, axillary or rectal temperatures are taken using Normal or Monitor operating modes. Oral and axillary temperatures are taken using the blue oral probe. Rectal temperatures are taken using the red rectal probe. In Normal mode, the thermometer's microprocessor predicts body temperature in approximately 4 seconds for oral temperatures, 10 seconds for axillary temperatures, and 15 seconds for rectal temperatures. When using Monitor mode, allow the temperature read out to stabilize for 3 minutes for oral and rectal temperatures, and 5 minutes for axillary temperatures. The Monitor mode continues to display an updated temperature as long as the probe remains in place. Settings for Fahrenheit or Celsius scales are available for the temperature readings display.

Maximum and Minimum Temperature Ranges The maximum and minimum temperature ranges are as follows Measurement Temperature
Maximum 109.4°F 43.0°C
Minimum 86.0°F 30.0°C
Normal Temperature Mode Normal oral mode is the default operating mode for temperature determinations. In Normal mode, the Spot Vital Signs measures temperature at discrete intervals, then calculates the rate of change according to a proven algorithm. This allows the thermometer to predict the end point the thermistor would reach if it were left in the mouth until it reached mouth temperature. This predictive feature allows the thermometer to arrive at an accurate oral temperature reading in approximately 4 seconds. Operator-selectable patient alarm limits are not available in Normal temperature mode. However, temperatures that are outside the operating range of the device are noted on the temperature display (see “Temperature Measurement Range Indicators” on page 27 for further details).
Monitor Temperature Mode Continuous Monitor mode operation is normally used when difficult situations prevent taking accurate temperatures in the Normal mode, or in clinical situations in which the clinician is interested in trending the patient’s temperature (see “Temperature Measurement Range Indicators” on page 27 for further details). Maintain probe contact with the tissue for at least 3 minutes for accurate oral/rectal temperature measurement, and 5 minutes for accurate axillary temperature measurement. Monitor mode temperatures may not match identically to predicted “normal” temperatures because of ambient temperature influence and other factors. The trend in temperature is the important standard when in Monitor mode. Operator-selectable patient alarm limits are not available in Monitor temperature mode. However, temperatures that are outside the operating range of the device are noted on the temperature display (see “Temperature Measurement Range Indicators” on page 27 for further details).
SpO2 Operating Mode The Spot Vital Signs incorporates the Nellcor Puritan Bennett™ pulse oximetry system which determines arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2%) by measuring the absorption of red and infrared light passed through the tissues. Changes in absorption caused by pulsation of blood in the vascular bed are used to determine arterial saturation and pulse rate. Oxygen saturation percent is calculated with each pulse detected, so the display is continually updated. The pulse signal bar graph is an indicator of the strength and quality of the detected pulses.

Welch Allyn
The Spot Vital Signs determines pulse rate as an adjunct to blood pressure measurement and SpO2 measurement. The pulse rate, in beats per minute, is determined primarily from the SpO2 measurement methodology. In the case where SpO2 is not available, or is disabled, the pulse rate display is driven from data collected as part of the blood pressure measurement method. Removal of the SpO2 sensor from the patient initiates an audible beep, to alert you to the fact that the sensor is no longer attached to the patient. SpO2 is generally measured via pulses detected using a finger sensor, and performs most accurately with the finger clip sensor. All fingers, except the thumb, can use the finger clip sensor. For certain situations, measurement and alternate site measurements for SpO2 can include the earlobe, forehead, and toes. These situations require special sensors (see “Appendix A - SpO2 Sensors” on page 55). The finger clip sensor is recommended for spot checks or short-term evaluation (less than 60 minutes). Patient supervision is required, since the Spot Vital Signs has no alarm capability. Oxygen saturation and pulse rate are displayed on the LCD screen. On each detected pulse, the pulse signal bar graph flashes. The intensity of this signal is a simple visual indicator of waveform signal strength, and can identify possible situations of inadequate pulsatile nature of tissue for an accurate SpO2 reading. The update interval bar of the bar graph should correspond to the patient’s pulse rate. This is an indication of the quality of the SpO2 signal.
