Nonin Technical Bulletin Avant® 9600 & Avant 9700 Study Data Performance Characteristics Under Conditions of Motion and Low Perfusion Avant 9600 & Avant 9700 with PureSAT® Signal Processing Technology Saturation Accuracy (%SpO2 + 1 SD) 70-100% No Motion Adults/Peds ± 2 digits Neonates ± 3 digits Motion Adults/Peds ± 2 digits Neonates ± 3 digits Low Perfusion Adults/Peds ± 2 digits Neonates ± 3 digits Pulse rate accuracy 60-240 beats/min No Motion Adults/Peds ± 3 digits Neonates ± 3 digits Motion Adults/Peds ± 5 digits Neonates ± 5 digits Low Perfusion Adults/Peds ± 3 digits Neonates ± 3 digits How was the testing done? Saturation testing in a motion environment was conducted on human subjects at the Hypoxia Research Laboratory (Severinghaus) at the University of California, San Francisco. The Radiometer OSM-3 Multi-wavelength CO-oximeter was used as the gold standard for accuracy testing. Protocols for testing were in line with common industry practices and incorporated the Avant 9600 & Avant 9700 using the 8000AA finger clip sensor and the 8000J Flex sensor. Pulse rate motion and low perfusion were tested in-house, utilizing an industry standard simulator.
