Continuous SpO2, IEC 60601-1-8 alarms, and nurse-station telemetry for wards and ICUs.
Masimo devices are engineered for the workflow of each care environment — from 800-bed academic centers to critical-access hospitals and home health agencies.

Continuous SpO2, IEC 60601-1-8 alarms, and nurse-station telemetry for wards and ICUs.

Fast PACU turnover with handheld and bedside SpO2 cross-checks.

Cardio and pulmonary clinics using spot-check SpO2 with UDI-tracked sensors.

Portable oximetry and night-shift alarm policies tuned for long-term care staffing.

Hospital-to-home bundles with caregiver teach-back and FHIR Observation push.

Spot-check SpO2 during PT/OT sessions with durable handheld devices.
Method comparison
Best when readings are intermittent: clinic vitals, home health visits, rehab sessions. Lower capital cost and simpler alarm policy. Limit: not a substitute for continuous ICU monitoring when motion/low-perfusion Arms modes are required by the care pathway.
Best for ward / ICU / PACU telemetry with IEC 60601-1-8 priority alarms and HL7 ORU / FHIR Observation export. Limit: higher integration effort and sensor burn rate; disposable vs reusable sensor strategy must be decided with infection control.
