ChipOx

Compact and power-saving pulse oximetry module

An important vital parameter in common monitoring applications: the oxygen saturation in the arterial blood. If not enough oxygen is supplied to the blood, this can quickly become dangerous for patients. ChipOx measures S_pO₂ and pulse rate continuously and reliably. Whether it be finger clip or soft tip: the miniaturized module weighs only 1.9 g, meaning it can be easily integrated into many sensor variants. 

Continuous and accurate S_pO₂– and pulse rate measurement

Functions

Output of filtered and real-time raw plethysmogram
Various measuring modes for adaptation to ambient conditions
Warning output in case of poor signal quality and reliability

Advantages

Flexible and easy combination with a wide range of sensor types
Safe, convenient patient monitoring
Low energy and space requirements

The technology

Non-invasive pulse oximetry

The S_pO₂ measurement is based on the difference in the spectral characteristics of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin. In this regard, two different wavelengths in the range of 660 nm and 905 nm are measured using transmission sensors.

Use of a wide range of measurement parameters

Recording of S_pO₂ values between 45 and 100%.
Recording the pulse rate from 20 to 300 bpm
Status bits, quality parameters and pulsation strength provide feedback on the reliability and quality of the measured values at any time.

Areas of use

Status bits, quality parameters and pulsation strength provide feedback on the reliability and quality of the measured values at any time.

Typical fields of application are:

in anesthesia
in intensive care
in sleep diagnostics
in emergency services
