Abstract: A regional oximetry pod drives optical emitters on regional oximetry sensors and receives the corresponding detector signals in response. The sensor pod has a dual sensor connector configured to physically attach and electrically connect one or two regional oximetry sensors. The pod housing has a first housing end and a second housing end. The dual sensor connector is disposed proximate the first housing end. The housing at least partially encloses the dual sensor connector. A monitor connector is disposed proximate a second housing end. An analog board is disposed within the pod housing and is in communications with the dual sensor connector. A digital board is disposed within the pod housing in communications with the monitor connector.

Abstract: A regional oximetry system comprises a pod having a pod housing defining a sensor end and an opposite monitor end. A dual sensor connector is in electrical communication with the sensor end of the pod housing. A monitor connector is in electrical communication with the monitor end of the pod housing. An analog board is disposed within the pod housing and is in electrical communications with the dual sensor connector. The analog board receives and digitizes sensor signals from at least one optical sensor plugged into the dual sensor connector. A digital board is disposed within the pod housing and in electrical communications with the analog board and the monitor connector.

Abstract: A blood pressure monitoring system, comprising: an exciter configured to produce an acoustic signal, the exciter being provided on a first substrate portion; a detector spaced apart from the exciter, the detector being configured to detect the acoustic signal and to produce an electrical output signal, the detector being provided on a second substrate portion that is mechanically or acoustically decoupled from the first substrate portion, wherein the detector comprises at least four detectors; and a processor configured to determine a blood pressure measurement from the electrical output signal.

Abstract: A physiological sensor has light emitting sources, each activated by addressing at least one row and at least one column of an electrical grid. The light emitting sources are capable of transmitting light of multiple wavelengths and a detector is responsive to the transmitted light after attenuation by body tissue.

Abstract: A portable patient monitor has an integrated mode in which it operates as a plug-in module for a multiparameter patient monitoring system (MPMS). The patient monitor also has a portable mode in which it operates separately from the MPMS as a battery-powered handheld or standalone instrument. The patient monitor has a sensor port that receives a signal indicative of physiological parameters as input to an internal processor. The patient monitor processes this sensor signal to derive patient measurements. In the portable mode, this information is provided on its display. In the integrated mode, the patient monitor provides patient measurements to the MPMS to be displayed on a MPMS monitor.
