Sensor, Masimo SpO2 LNCS

Description

LNCS, or Low Noise Cabled Sensors, are available in a wide variety of designs to serve the needs of many types of patients. LNCS sensors are intended for hospitals that prefer to minimize clinician-user-interface change when upgrading their pulse oximetry to Masimo SET® and do not anticipate adopting rainbow® technology. LNCS sensors are cabled with a DB9 connector, compatible with LNC patient cables, which enables use with Masimo SET® pulse oximeters and Nellcor sensor-compatible instruments without OxiMax®.

Additional patient cables are available to connect LNCS sensors to a variety of pulse oximeters and multi-parameter monitors equipped with Masimo SET®. Adapter cables are also available for monitors with conventional Nellcor technology, allowing standardization on sensors throughout a facility with a mixed inventory of pulse oximeters.

LNCS sensors provide excellent SpO2 performance while facilitating patient comfort with a connector positioned away from the sensor application site. Specialty LNCS sensors with built-in intelligence are available for patients with limited or no access to digits or patients with extremely low perfusion.

Single-patient-use LNCS Sensors
– Appropriate for short- or long-term monitoring of adult, pediatric, infant, and neonatal patients
– Designed for finger, toe, thumb, hand, or foot application, offering secure positioning of the optical components
– SofTouch™ sensors are designed for patients with fragile skin and feature a non-adhesive wrap made from soft foam material, with hook-and-loop attachment
– Minimize the risk of cross-contamination
