rainbow® Parameters in a Compact, Standalone
Device
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 10, 2018--
Masimo (NASDAQ:
MASI) announced today the CE marking of the Rad-97™ Pulse CO-Oximeter®
with integrated NomoLine™ capnography. With this clearance, Rad-97 is
now available both within and outside the United States in three
configurations: Rad-97, Rad-97 with integrated noninvasive blood
pressure, and now Rad-97 with NomoLine capnography. Rad-97 offers Masimo
noninvasive and continuous monitoring, through Measure-through Motion
and Low Perfusion™ SET® pulse oximetry, upgradeable rainbow®
technology, and NomoLine capnography in a compact, standalone monitor
that incorporates advanced customizability, connectivity, and device

Rad-97 with NomoLine capnography features an integrated ISA™ CO2
module with NomoLine sampling lines for sidestream capnography, with an
adapter for intubated patients – meeting continuous monitoring and
capnography needs in a single device. Rad-97 with capnography displays
continuous end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) values with
numeric, trend, and waveform viewing options, as well as fractional
concentration of inspired carbon dioxide (FiCO2) and
respiration rate. With both integrated capnography and Masimo acoustic
respiration rate (RRa®) available on a single device,
clinicians have the flexibility of choosing the most appropriate
respiration monitoring method for each patient.
Rad-97 combines its portable, compact form factor with a
high-resolution, multi-touch color display that allows clinicians to
easily customize the device for each monitoring use case – bringing
rainbow SET™ measurements and capnography measurements to care areas
where a small footprint or high portability is desired. Rad-97 features
built-in enterprise WiFi capability, allowing it to connect wirelessly
to supplemental patient monitoring systems including Masimo Patient
SafetyNet™*, facilitating automatic data transfer to hospital electronic
medical record (EMR) systems. The easy-to-use, intuitive interface helps
to simplify charting workflows for vital sign monitoring and patient
data capture.
“We’re delighted to bring the full family of Rad-97 products to markets
outside the United States,” said Joe Kiani, Founder and CEO of Masimo.
“We believe Rad-97, with its versatility and customizability, will play
an especially important role in helping hospitals improve their
monitoring capabilities with convenient, easy-to-use device and
technology solutions – ultimately helping to improve patient care and
safety.”
Rad-97, Rad-97 with noninvasive blood pressure, and Rad-97 with NomoLine
capnography have received FDA 510(k) clearance and are also available in
the United States.

About Masimo
Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) is a global leader in innovative noninvasive
monitoring technologies. Our mission is to improve patient outcomes and
reduce the cost of care. In 1995, the company debuted Masimo SET®
Measure-through Motion and Low Perfusion™ pulse oximetry, which has been
shown in multiple studies to significantly reduce false alarms and
accurately monitor for true alarms. Masimo SET® has also been
shown to help clinicians reduce severe retinopathy of prematurity in
neonates,1 improve CCHD screening in newborns,2
and, when used for continuous monitoring with Masimo Patient SafetyNet™*
in post-surgical wards, reduce rapid response activations and costs.3,4,5
Masimo SET® is estimated to be used on more than 100 million
patients in leading hospitals and other healthcare settings around the
world,6 and is the primary pulse oximetry at 17 of the top 20
hospitals listed in the 2017-18 U.S. News and World Report Best
Hospitals Honor Roll.7 In 2005, Masimo introduced rainbow®
Pulse CO-Oximetry technology, allowing noninvasive and continuous
monitoring of blood constituents that previously could only be measured
invasively, including total hemoglobin (SpHb®), oxygen
content (SpOC™), carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO®), methemoglobin
(SpMet®), Pleth Variability Index (PVi®), and more
recently, Oxygen Reserve Index™ (ORi™), in addition to SpO2,
pulse rate, and perfusion index (Pi). In 2014, Masimo introduced Root®,
an intuitive patient monitoring and connectivity platform with the
Masimo Open Connect® (MOC-9®) interface, enabling
other companies to augment Root with new features and measurement
capabilities. Masimo is also taking an active leadership role in mHealth
with products such as the Radius-7® wearable patient monitor,
iSpO2® pulse oximeter for smartphones, and the
MightySat™ fingertip pulse oximeter. Additional information about Masimo
and its products may be found at www.masimo.com.

ORi has not received FDA 510(k) clearance and is not available for sale
in the United States.
