Abstract: An optical measurement device includes a light source, a first detector, and a second detector. The light source emits light to a measurement site of a patient and one or more detectors detect the light from the light source. At least a portion of a detector is translucent and the light passes through the translucent portion prior to reaching the measurement site. A detector receives the light after attenuation and/or reflection or refraction by the measurement site. A processor determines a light intensity of the light source, a light intensity through a tissue site, or a light intensity of reflected or refracted light based on light detected by the one or more detectors. The processor can estimate a concentration of an analyte at the measurement site or an absorption or reflection at the measurement site.

Abstract: A noninvasive physiological sensor for measuring one or more physiological parameters of a medical patient can include a bump interposed between a light source and a photodetector. The bump can be placed in contact with body tissue of a patient and thereby reduce a thickness of the body tissue. As a result, an optical pathlength between the light source and the photodetector can be reduced. In addition, the sensor can include a heat sink that can direct heat away from the light source. Moreover, the sensor can include shielding in the optical path between the light source and the photodetector. The shielding can reduce noise received by the photodetector.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an interface for a noninvasive glucose sensor that comprises a front-end adapted to receive an input signals from optical detectors and provide corresponding digital signals. In one embodiment, the front-end comprises switched capacitor circuits that are capable of handling multiple streams signals from the optical detectors. In another embodiment, the front-end comprises transimpedance amplifiers that are capable of handling multiple streams of input signals. In this embodiment, the transimpedance amplifier may be configured based on its own characteristics, such as its impedance, the impedance of the photodiodes to which it is coupled, and the number of photodiodes to which it is coupled.

Abstract: A magnetic-flap optical sensor has an emitter activated so as to transmit light into a fingertip inserted between an emitter pad and a detector pad. The sensor has a detector responsive to the transmitted light after attenuation by pulsatile blood flow within fingertip so as to generate a detector signal. Flaps extend from the emitter pad and along the sides of a detector shell housing the detector pad. Flap magnets are disposed on the flap ends and shell magnets are disposed on the detector shell sides. A spring urges the emitter shell and detector shell together, so as to squeeze the fingertip between its fingernail and its finger pad. The flap magnets have opposite north and south orientations from the shell magnets, urging the flaps to the detector shell sides and squeezing the fingertip sides. These spring and magnet squeezing forces occlude the fingertip blood flow and accentuate a detector signal responsive to an active pulsing of the fingertip.
