Description

Reason

Internal testing revealed that some of the sensors might not meet the accuracy specifications of : 2% for SpO2 and of: 3% for SpCO, due to the tolerance of one of the emitter LED's used in the calculation ofSpO2 and SpCO. The SpO2 reading may have a negative bias of up to 1 % and the SpCO reading may have a negative bias of up to 4%.
