the max-fast™ forehead sensor responds to changes in arterial oxygen saturation typically one to two minutes sooner than digit sensors for patients with weak pulses.
Unlike ear sensors
which may cause pressure necrosis and are subject to vasoconstriction
the max-fast™ sensor maintains stronger signal integrity
Clinicians often have easier access to the forehead than to the hands
especially in the operating room
The max-fast™ sensor is more accurate than all other ear
nose and forehead sensors. it also has our industry-leading losat™ expanded accuracy range (60% to 100% spo2) when used with nellcor™ oximax™ pulse oximetry
for better management of patients with congenital heart disease
Effective for mechanically ventilated and supine patients.
The Nellcor™ SpO2 forehead sensor detects hypoxic events 90 seconds faster
