CASMED 740 Monitors
1. INTRODUCTION AND INTENDED USE
INTRODUCTION
The CASMED 740 Monitor is a multi parameter monitor measuring blood pressure, oxygen
saturation and temperature. Non-invasive blood pressure is measured using the oscillometric
technique determining systolic, diastolic, mean arterial pressure and pulse rate. The pulse
oximeter function continuously monitors and displays values for functional arterial hemoglobin
saturation and a pulse rate. Temperature is obtained in the normal (predictive) mode in as little
as four (4) seconds. A monitoring mode is available for taking axillary temperatures.
INDICATIONS FOR USE
The CASMED 740 Series Vital Signs Monitor is indicated for use for non-invasive monitoring of
blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse and temperature of adult, pediatric and neonatal
patients, in the care of health professionals.
WARNING:
The CASMED 740 Monitor is intended only as an adjunct in patient assessment. It must be
used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
• Oral and Rectal Temperature measurements are not intended for neonatal use.
• Reusable SpO 2 sensors are contraindicated for use for prolonged periods of use. They
are not intended for long term monitoring. They must be removed and repositioned
every four (4) hours and if indicated by circulatory condition or skin integrity, reapplied to
a different monitoring site.
