LNCS® Patient Cables
LNC Series
Reusable
INDICATIONS
The LNC Patient Cable series have the same indications for use as the applicable sensors. Please see the
compatible sensor's directions for use for indications for use and prescribed information.
DESCRIPTION
The LNC Patient Cable Series are used with Masimo LNCS® sensors. The LNC Patient Cable and Masimo LNCS
Sensors have been validated with Masimo SET® Rad-5® Pulse Oximeter.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES
• Ensure the cable is physically intact, with no broken or frayed wires or damaged parts. Visually inspect
the cable and discard if cracks or discoloration are found.
• Carefully route patient cable to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.
• Do not attempt to reprocess, recondition or recycle Masimo sensors or patient cables as these processes
may damage the electrical components, potentially leading to patient harm.
• Masimo sensors and cables are designed for use with devices containing Masimo SET® oximetry or
licensed to use Masimo sensors.
• All sensors and cables are designed for use with specific monitors. Verify the compatibility of the
monitor, cable and sensor before use, otherwise degraded performance and/or patient injury can result.
• Failure to properly connect the sensor or the oximeter module to the cable will result in intermittent
readings, inaccurate results, or no reading.
• To avoid damage to the cable, always hold it by the connector rather than the cable when connecting
or disconnecting either end.
• Always refer to the oximeter module operator's manual for complete instructions or additional
instructions.
• To prevent damage, do not soak or immerse the sensor or cable in any liquid solution. Do not attempt
to sterilize the cable or sensor.
• Caution: Replace the cable when a replace cable message is displayed, or when a low SIQ message
is consistently displayed while monitoring consecutive patients after completing the low SIQ
troubleshooting steps identified in the monitoring device operator's manual.
• Note: The cable is provided with X-Cal™ technology to minimize the risk of inaccurate readings
and unanticipated loss of patient monitoring. The cable will provide up to 17,520 hours of patient
monitoring time. Replace the cable when the patient monitoring time is exhausted. Some legacy
monitoring devices do not distinguish between the cable and the sensor. In these devices, a replace
sensor or similar message could pertain either to the sensor or the cable.
INSTRUCTIONS
A) Attach the LNC Patient Cable to the device
1. Orient the connector of the cable to mate with the connector on the patient cable connector of the
Masimo SET instrument and insert.
B) Attaching the LNC Cable to the LNCS Sensor
1. Insert the sensor connector completely into the patient cable connector (Fig. 1) .
2. Completely close the protective cover (Fig. 2).
C) Disconnecting the LNC Cable from the LNCS Sensor
1. Lift the protective cover to gain access to the sensor connector (Fig. 3).
2. Pull firmly on the sensor connector to remove from the patient cable (Fig. 4).
WARNING
Do not use the LNC-10 or LNC-14 Patient cables with the PXC2-30 Extension cable.
CLEANING
Clean the LNC Patient Cable by wiping it with a 70% isopropyl alcohol pad and allowing it to dry thoroughly.
