  • Patent number: 9642565
    Abstract: A sensor for measuring physiological characteristics is provided that includes a circuit assembly and a means of deforming the sensor to a desired shape of small radius compound curvature. In one embodiment, the sensor includes a deformable layer configured to conform and maintain a shape of a surface on which the sensor is applied.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 27, 2008
    Date of Patent: May 9, 2017
    Assignee: Covidien LP
    Inventors: Oleg Gonopolskiy, Rick Scheuing
  • Patent number: 9636057
    Abstract: A sensor for measuring physiological characteristics includes a circuit assembly, at least one material layer, and an adhesive layer that extends beyond an outer edge of the circuit assembly. The at least one material layer forms an adhesive edge around the perimeter of the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20150216461
    Abstract: A sensor used to measure physiological characteristics of body tissues is provided. The physiological sensor includes a first light source assembly having a first light source in parallel with a second light source. Each of the first light source and the second light source have an anode and a cathode. A second light source assembly includes a third light source in parallel with a fourth light source. Each of the third light source and the fourth light source have an anode and a cathode. The anode of the first light source is electrically connected to the cathode of the second light source, the anode of said third light source, and the cathode of said fourth light source. The anode of the third light source is electrically connected to the cathode of the fourth light source.
