SpO2Pad(TM) - Forehead Sensor Protection

image (1)_edited.jpg
Protect What Matters Most

A simple solution to a serious problem-SpO2Pad(TM) helps reduce skin irritation and thermal pressure injuries caused by extended use of forehead pulse oximetry sensors.

What is SpO2Pad(TM)?

SpO2Pad(TM) is a soft, non-invasive foam pad designed to act as a barrier between the skin and forehead pulse oximetry sensors-most commonly the MaxFast(TM) or equivalent sensors. It helps reduce pressure and heat buildup that can lead to pressure ulcers or skin breakdown during continuous monitoring.

How It Works

The SpO2Pad(TM) is placed between the patient's skin and the sensor's adhesive face.

Padding helps distribute pressure more evenly.

Breathable foam helps minimize heat and moisture buildup.

The sensor is secured over the pad using its existing adhesive.

*The product is intended for single-use applications.*

Use Case Example

Many forehead sensor systems are applied for extended durations, sometimes exceeding 24-72 hours. In such scenarios, the SpO2Pad(TM) provides added protection for fragile skin, especially in high-risk patients such as preterm infants, elderly patients, or individuals with compromised tissue perfusion.
