Background
What is a pulse oximeter?
• A simple non-invasive tool for monitoring the percentage of hemoglobin (Hb) which is saturated with oxygen.

Background (cont)
How does an oximeter work?
• Light source originates from a LED at two wavelengths (650nm and 805nm).
• The light is partly absorbed by hemoglobin.
• A processor calculates the absorption at the two wavelengths and determines O2 concentration.

Background (cont)
General Limitations
• The oximeter is dependant on pulsatile flow and would be unable to function when flow is sluggish (i.e. during vasoconstriction)
• Oximeters give no information about the level of CO2
• Accurate at oxygen saturations of 70 to 100% (+/-2%), but less accurate under 70%…. Under 70% is fatal.

Overview
Product• A pulse oximeter with replaceable adhesive.
• Alleviates problems involved with maintaining proper positioning of the device.
Intended solution• Design will be based upon current disposable pulse oximeters, but will incorporate a reusable sensor and replaceable adhesive.
Audience• Intended for patients using current pulse oximetry devices, specifically those who experience difficulties keeping the device positioned properly.

Project Goals
• Design cost effective pulse oximeter that maintains accuracy of current designs
• Design universal adapter to integrate replaceable device into current electronic monitoring systems
• High level timing goals• Research• Design• Prototyping

Existing design problems
• No universal connectors
• Disposable pulse oximeter • costly
• Clip/ Rubber slip• unstable attachment
• only for the finger
• Alarm• not discernable between situations

Design Alternatives
• Removable adhesive
• Universal connectors
• Different alarm sounds for different situations

Features & Benefits
• Replaceable Adhesive• Cost effective alternative to current disposable models
• Maintains ability of disposable adhesive models to stay in place
• Can be used on a variety of body parts • i.e. finger, toe, nose, forehead, or earlobe
• Increased versatility
• Universal Adapter• Can be integrated into electronics already in use
