In neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and adult monitoring settings, accurate oxygen saturation (SpO2) readings can be the difference between early intervention and missed events. The Masimo RD SET NEO 4003 disposable SpO2 finger sensor delivers industry-leading performance in the most challenging conditions—motion, low perfusion, and delicate neonatal skin.
Designed as a single-patient-use adhesive sensor, the Masimo 4003 RD SET NEO combines comfort, infection control, and Masimo’s proprietary SET® Measure-through Motion and Low Perfusion™ technology. Whether you’re caring for premature infants under 3 kg or adult patients over 40 kg, this sensor provides reliable, clinically proven results.
What Is the Masimo RD SET NEO 4003?
The Masimo 4003 RD SET NEO is a lightweight, adhesive, single-patient-use SpO2 sensor specifically engineered for neonatal and select adult monitoring. It connects seamlessly to Masimo RD SET–enabled pulse oximeters and monitors, including popular models like the Rad-97 and compatible defibrillators. Packaged in boxes of 20 and supplied non-sterile (with optional replacement tape 4047), the sensor is latex-free and built for maximum patient comfort without sacrificing signal quality. Its flat, soft cable and low-profile optical components make it ideal for tiny hands, feet, or adult fingers.
Key Features That Set It Apart
Masimo SET® Measure-through Motion and Low Perfusion™ Technology — Delivers accurate SpO2 and pulse rate readings even when patients move or have weak peripheral perfusion—common in neonates.
Ultra-lightweight & patient-friendly design — Flat sensor cable with smooth edges lies comfortably on the hand or foot. Low-profile optics reduce pressure on delicate skin.
Single-patient-use adhesive — Minimizes cross-contamination risk in high-acuity environments like NICUs.
Dual patient compatibility — Perfect for neonates <3 kg (hand or foot placement) and adults >40 kg (finger or toe).
Durable yet gentle — Not made with natural rubber latex; designed to maximize comfort and support hospital green initiatives by reducing waste through reliable single-use performance.
Why Masimo SET® Technology Matters in Neonatal Care
Conventional pulse oximeters often struggle with motion artifact and low perfusion, leading to false alarms and missed true hypoxic events. Masimo SET® uses advanced signal processing to separate arterial signals from venous motion and noise. Clinical studies show Masimo SET®:
Reduces false alarms dramatically while identifying more true hypoxic and bradycardic events in newborns.
Provides faster, more reliable readings during neonatal resuscitation.
Maintains high accuracy (ARMS of 1.5% for SpO2 in motion and no-motion conditions for the RD SET series).
For NICU teams, this means fewer unnecessary alarms, better workflow, and—most importantly—improved patient safety.
