    摘要: A fiber optic sensing device for measuring a chemical or physiological parameter of a body fluid or tissue is provided. To one end of the fiber is attached a polymer including a plurality of photoactive moieties selected from the group consisting of chromophores and lumophores, the photoactive moieties spaced apart so as to minimize chemical or physical interaction therebetween while optimizing the density of photoactive moieties. In one embodiment, a polymer chain is covalently bound to photoactive moieties through functional groups such as esters, amides, or the like. In a second embodiment, a polymer chain is inherently fluorescent and is formed from at least one monomeric unit. These devices are particularly useful as pH and oxygen sensors.

    摘要: A device for assessing capillary vitality comprises an inflatable cuff, a blood flow sensor and a pressure sensor in communication with the cuff, a pressure instrument in fluid communication with the cuff for inflation and deflation thereof, a microprocessor coupled to the pressure instrument for controlling airflow, at least one metabolic sensor for measuring a metabolic condition, and a computer program executable by the microprocessor. The pressure instrument includes a source of pressurized air and a conduit connecting the source of pressurized air to the cuff. The microprocessor is arranged to receive inputs from the blood flow, pressure and metabolic sensors. When executed by the microprocessor, the computer program causes the microprocessor to initiate an automatic inflation sequence resulting in a no flow condition, initiate an automatic deflation sequence, automatically qualify a perfusion measurement as an SPP value upon one or more conditions being met during the deflation sequence, and initiate the measurement of at least one metabolic factor.

    摘要: There is a need for a technique to compensate for, or eliminate, motion-induced artifacts in patient-attached critical care monitoring instruments. Consequently, the invention is directed to improving pulse-oximetry by incorporating additional signals to aid in the triggering of the pulse-oximeter or in analyzing the data received by the pulse oximeter. This includes detecting when the patient moves and analyzing the pulse-oximetry data in light of the detected movement.

    摘要: A device is provided for maintaining a volume of gas dissolved in a fluid at a predetermined partial pressure. The device includes a first sealable, gas-tight pouch containing the fluid and a second sealable, gas-tight pouch encasing the first pouch and providing a space between the first and second pouches. The space may be charged with an atmosphere containing a volume of the gas dissolved in the fluid that is greater than the volume of dissolved gas, at a partial pressure that is substantially the same as the partial pressure of the dissolved gas. A method is also provided for using the device to maintain a volume of a gas dissolved in a fluid at a predetermined partial pressure.

    摘要: A ratiometric method for using optical sensors is provided to measure dissolved oxygen in a fluid sample. The sensor is formulated so as to contain an oxygen permeable membrane of a cured perfluorinated urethane polymer and, incorporated therein, an oxygen-sensitive indicator component and a reference dye component. The emission spectrum from the indicator component is calibrated by comparison with that of the reference dye, which is substantially less sensitive to oxygen-quenching and which has a photodecomposition rate similar to the indicator component. Methods for making and using the membrane and sensor are provided as well.
