How it works
Masimo
rainbow SET™ technology

Philips patient monitoring with Masimo technology provides noninvasive, continuous hemoglobin monitoring you can rely on – at the point of care. Maintain consistent visibility on your patient's condition between invasive hemoglobin samples. Streamline workflows and drive down costs while providing clinically proven patient monitoring across care settings.

Philips and Masimo combine their expertise at Strasbourg University Hospital

“The rollout went well. The first step, and the one that seemed most important, was for caregivers to gain the conviction that these elements and their integration would provide a clinical advantage for patient safety, and this is a particularly important point, as well as for the ergonomics of care.”

Dr. Julien Pottecher,
Head of the Department of Anesthesia-Intensive Care & Perioperative Medicine, Strasbourg University Hospital, France

Standard parameters

Masimo SET™ pulse oximetry

Pulse rate

Perfusion Index

Optional parameters

Pleth Variability Index

Total hemoglobin

Methemoglobin saturation

Carboxyhemoglobin

Acoustic Respiration rate

Oxygen content

Common measurement parameters

SpO₂ - measure of oxygen saturation even through motion and low perfusion

SpHb¹ - provides continuous visibility to changes – or lack of changes – in hemoglobin levels between invasive blood samples

PVi - measure of the dynamic changes in the Perfusion Index (PERF) that occur during one or more respiratory cycles

Philips IntelliVue and Masimo Horizon Trends

Horizon Trends are built into many Philips IntelliVue monitors and provide graphical representation of vital sign changes to make deviations easier to notice.

Horizon trends

Horizon trends clearly indicate timely changes in patient condition – to aid you to quickly identify meaningful clinical deviations and take appropriate actions.

Noninvasive rainbow SETtechnology

Advanced rainbow SET sensors utilize multiple wavelengths of light to measure total hemoglobin (SpHb), Pleth Variability Index (PVi), oxygen content (SpOC). carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO) and methemoglobin (SpMet) noninvasively and continuously.

^*Study Protocol: In each group, if researchers noted SpHb trended downward below 10 g/dl, a red blood cell transfusion was started and continued until SpHb trended upward above 10 g/dl. The transfusion threshold of 10 g/dl was predetermined by the study protocol and may not be appropriate for all patients. Blood sampling was the same for the control and test group. Artertal blood was drawn from a 20 gauge radial.
