  • Fiber Optic Flow And Oxygenation Monitoring Using Diffuse Correlation And Reflectance
    Publication number: 20230079219
    Abstract: Disclosed are fiber optic devices and related methods that allow for measurement of blood flow and oxygenation in real time. These devices have particular application to the spinal cord. Such devices have applicability in, for example, the care of military members sustaining combatant and noncombatant spinal injuries, as well as to civilians. The devices also have utility in the acute and subacute management of spine trauma, enhancing the efficacy of interventions aimed at the prevention of secondary ischemic injury, and ultimately improving neurologic outcome.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 9, 2022
    Publication date: March 16, 2023
    Inventors: Thomas F. Floyd, Arjun G. Yodh, Rickson C. Mesquita
