The Nellcor™ MAXFASTI Forehead SpO₂ Sensor is an advanced pulse oximetry solution designed for fast, accurate oxygen saturation monitoring in challenging clinical conditions. Engineered with trusted OxiMax™ technology, this forehead sensor provides reliable SpO₂ and pulse rate readings when traditional finger sensors struggle—particularly in patients with low perfusion or compromised circulation.

Unlike conventional digit sensors, the MAXFASTI is positioned on the forehead, closer to the heart and central circulation. This allows clinicians to detect changes in oxygen saturation significantly faster—helping support timely clinical decisions when every second counts.

Ideal for use across a wide patient range (from paediatric to adult), the MAXFASTI sensor is a dependable choice in acute care, emergency, and critical care environments where accuracy and responsiveness are essential.

Key Features & Benefits

• Faster Detection of Hypoxic Events
