Pulse Oximetry01:24

Pulse Oximetry

Pulse oximetry, or SpO2, is a non-invasive method for continuously monitoring arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). This procedure involves attaching a probe or sensor to the patient's fingertip, forehead, earlobe, or nose bridge. The sensor works by detecting changes in oxygen saturation levels through light signals generated by the oximeter and reflected by the pulsing blood under the probe.
Purpose
Average SpO2 values are greater than 95%. If the readings fall below 90%, it indicates that...

  • SHIMMER is a modular wireless system for health monitoring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To validate the physiological signal (EMG, ECG, GSR) accuracy of the SHIMMER system.
  • To compare SHIMMER's performance against established commercial monitoring systems.

Main Methods:

  • The SHIMMER system, including its EMG, ECG, and GSR daughter-boards, was used for signal acquisition.
  • Recorded physiological signals were compared against data from commercial monitoring devices.

Main Results:

  • SHIMMER's recorded EMG, ECG, and GSR signals demonstrated strong agreement with commercial systems.
  • The validation confirmed the reliability and accuracy of the SHIMMER device for physiological data collection.

Conclusions:

  • The SHIMMER system provides accurate and comparable physiological measurements (EMG, ECG, GSR) to commercial standards.
  • SHIMMER is a validated and reliable choice for wearable physiological monitoring applications.
