2. Intended use
Only use the Beurer PO 80 pulse oximeter on humans to measure the arterial oxygen saturation (SpO₂) of haemoglobin and the heart rate (pulse rate).
The pulse oximeter is suitable for private use (at home, on the go) as well as for use in the medical sector (hospitals, medical establishments).
3. Getting to know your device
The Beurer PO 80 pulse oximeter provides a non-invasive measurement of the arterial oxygen saturation (SpO
2
) and the heart rate (pulse rate). Oxygen
saturation indicates the percentage of haemoglobin in arterial blood that is loaded with oxygen. Therefore it is an important parameter for assessing
the respiratory function. If the values fall below or exceed your individually set alarm limits, you receive an acoustic warning. Thanks to the integrated
memory, it is possible to record data continuously for up to 24 hours. The pulse oximeter can be connected to a PC using the integrated USB connec-
tion. The software included in the delivery allows you to obtain a detailed evaluation of your recordings.
To take a measurement, the pulse oximeter uses two rays of light with diering wavelengths, which strike the finger inserted inside the housing.
A low oxygen saturation value generally indicates underlying illnesses (respiratory diseases, asthma, heart failure etc.). People with a low oxygen satu-
ration value are more likely to experience the following symptoms: shortness of breath, increased heart rate, weakness, nervousness and outbreaks
of sweating. If oxygen saturation is known to be chronically diminished, it requires monitoring using the pulse oximeter under medical supervision. If
you have acutely diminished oxygen saturation, with or without the accompanying symptoms, you must consult a doctor immediately as it could lead
to a life-threatening situation. The pulse oximeter is particularly suitable for patients at risk such as people with heart disease or asthma, but also for
athletes and healthy people who exercise at high altitude (e.g. mountaineers, skiers or amateur pilots).

5. Warnings and safety notes
Read these instructions for use carefully. Non-observance of the following information may result in personal injury or material damage. Store these
instructions for use and make them accessible to other users. Make sure you include these instructions for use when handing over the device to third
parties.
WARNING
•
Check to ensure that the package contains all the parts that should be included in the delivery.
•
Before use, ensure that there is no visible damage to the unit or accessories. When in doubt, do not use the unit and contact your dealer or the
customer service address provided.
•
Do not use any additional parts that are not recommended by the manufacturer or oered as equipment.
•
Under no circumstances should you open or repair the device yourself, as faultless functionality could no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to
comply will result in voiding of the warranty. For repairs, please contact Beurer customer services or an authorised retailer.
Do NOT use the pulse oximeter
−
if you are allergic to rubber products.
−
if the device or the finger you are using is damp.
−
on small children or babies.
−
during an MRI or CT scan.
−
whilst taking a blood pressure measurement on the same arm using a cu.
−
on fingers that have nail varnish on, are dirty or have a plaster or other dressing on them.
−
on large fingers that do not fit into the device easily (fingertip: width approx. > 20 mm, thickness >15 mm).
−
on fingers with anatomical changes, oedemas, scars or burns.
−
on fingers that are too small, as with small children for example (width approx. < 10 mm, thickness < 5 mm).
−
on patients who are not steady at the site of application (e.g. trembling).
−
near flammable or explosive gas mixtures.
•
Using the device for long periods may cause discomfort or pain for people with circulatory disorders. Therefore do not use the pulse oximeter for
longer than 2 hours on one finger.
•
Do not self-diagnose or self-medicate on the basis of the measurements without consulting your doctor. In particular, do not start taking any new
medication or change the type and/or dosage of any existing medication without prior approval.
•
Do not look directly inside the housing during the measurement. The red light and the invisible infra-red light in the pulse oximeter are harmful to
your eyes.
•
This device is not intended for use by people (including children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental skills or a lack of experience and/or a
lack of knowledge, unless they are supervised by a person who has responsibility for their safety or they receive instructions from this person on
how to use the device. Children should be supervised around the device to ensure they do not play with it.
•
Neither of the displays for the pulse wave and pulse bar allows the strength of the pulse or circulation to be evaluated at the measurement site.
Rather, they are exclusively used to display the current visual signal variation at the measurement site and do not enable reliable diagnostics for the
pulse.
Non-observance of the following instructions can lead to inaccurate or incorrect measurements.
•
There must not be any nail varnish, artificial nails or other cosmetics on the finger to be measured.
•
Ensure that the finger nail on the finger to be measured is short enough that the fingertip covers the sensor element in the housing.
•
Keep your hand, finger and body steady during the measurement.
•
For people with cardiac arrhythmia, the measurement values of SpO₂ and the heart rate may be incorrect or the measurement may not be possible
at all.
•
In cases of carbon monoxide poisoning, the pulse oximeter displays a measurement value that is too high.
•
To avoid falsifying the measuring result, there should not be any strong light sources (e.g. fluorescent lamps or direct sunlight) in the immediate
vicinity of the pulse oximeter.
•
People with low blood pressure, who suer from jaundice or take medication for vascular contraction, may experience incorrect or falsified measure-
ments.
•
Incorrect measurements are likely for patients who have been administered medical dye in the past or for those who have abnormal haemoglobin
levels. This applies in particular for cases of carbon monoxide poisoning and methaemoglobin poisoning, which can occur for example from the
administration of local anaesthetics or from an existing methaemoglobin reductase deficiency.
•
Protect the pulse oximeter from dust, shocks, moisture, extreme temperatures and explosive materials.

7.1 Charging the pulse oximeter
If the battery indicator on the display shows a low battery charge state, the pulse oximeter must be charged. There are two ways to charge the pulse
oximeter.
Option 1: connect the supplied data cable to the pulse oximeter’s USB connection. Insert the other (large) end of the data cable into the supplied
charger. Insert the charger into the socket.
Option 2: connect the supplied data cable to the pulse oximeter’s USB connection. Insert the other (large) end of the data cable into your computer’s
USB port.
Note
When the device is charging, the blue charger indicator lamp on the pulse oximeter lights up. The blue charger indicator lamp goes out as soon as the
battery is fully charged.
7.2 Installing the “SpO₂-Viewer/Manager” software
You can transfer the measurement data from the pulse oximeter to your computer using the supplied software. The software consists of the “SpO₂-
Viewer” and the “SpO
₂-Manager”. Using “SpO₂-Viewer” you can display your values in real time on the computer screen during the recording. You
can use “SpO₂-Manager” to transfer previously stored measurement data to your computer and manage the data.
To install the software, follow these steps:
•
Insert the supplied mini CD into your computer’s drive.
•
Run the “SpO2Setup.exe” installation file.
•
Follow the instructions during the installation process.
7.3 Attaching the lanyard
To transport the pulse oximeter more easily (e.g. whilst on the move) you can attach a lanyard to the device.
1
. Insert the narrow end of the lanyard through the holder as
shown.
2
. Draw the other end of the lanyard through the loop at the narrow end
and tighten.
