Abstract:
The review of recent papers devoted to actively developing methods of photoplethysmographic imaging (the PPGI) of blood volume pulsations in vessels and non-contact two-dimensional oximetry on the surface of a human body has been carried out. The physical fundamentals and technical aspects of the PPGI and oximetry have been considered. The manifold of the physiological parameters available for the analysis by the PPGI method has been shown. The prospects of the PPGI technology have been discussed. The possibilities of non-contact determination of blood oxygen saturation SpO2 (pulse saturation O2) have been described. The relevance of remote determination of the level of oxygenation in connection with the spread of a new coronavirus infection SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) has been emphasized. Most of the works under consideration cover the period 2010-2021.

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...
