Reusable Soft SpO2 Oximeter Probe (8000S series) – Small (Pediatric)

This Silicone Soft Tip Finger Probe Small (SpO2 Oximeter) is a precision-engineered reusable sensor designed for accurate measurement of oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate in subjects with smaller finger or toe sizes.

The probe tip is made of soft silicone and fits small finger/toe size. Sensor recommendations are based on digit height (thickness):

• Digit height 7.5 - 12.5 mm (0.3 - 0.5 inch): select Small
• Digit height 10.0 - 19.0 mm (0.4 - 0.75 inch): select Medium
• Digit height between 12.5 - 25.5 mm (0.5 - 1.0 inch): select Large

The silicone probe ensures a secure yet gentle fit, making it particularly suitable for pediatric and small adult applications.

The adaptive soft-tip construction improves signal consistency by maintaining proper alignment of optical components, even during extended monitoring periods. Its lightweight and ergonomic design minimizes subject discomfort while delivering research reliable readings in sleep research (PSG), sport science and other applications.

This probe is available in both 1 meter and 3 meter cable lengths. It is built on the proven 8000S sensor technology from Nonin.

Application Note

Select the small probe size for subjects with a finger height between 7.5 mm and 12.5 mm. Ensure proper placement so the emitter and detector are aligned directly opposite each other.

Connect the probe to a compatible pulse oximeter system validated for silicone soft-tip sensors. Verify signal quality before clinical use. Regularly inspect the sensor site during prolonged monitoring and clean according to infection control protocols after each use.

Attaching the SpO2 Sensor

1. Insert the selected digit (refer to the sizing recommendations above) into the SpO2 probe. The subject’s digit must reach the end of the sensor.
2. Direct the cable along the subject’s finger/toe, parallel to the arm/leg. (Optional: Secure the sensor cable as needed.)
3. Connect the sensor cable to the pulse oximeter or physiology measurement device.
4. Verify proper operation as described in the pulse oximeter operator’s manual.
