Abstract: An oximeter device has an ergonomically shaped enclosure that allows a user to comfortably grip and use the device during handheld operation. A sensor tip can be easily placed evenly on the tissue surface, so that all sources and detectors are directly on the tissue with even pressure. This allows for more consistent and accurate results. The user can easily move the device from one position to another and take numerous measurements. The user will have a wide, unobstructed view of the tissue because of the tip's small size, angle of display, and the grip and fingers are positioned away from the tip. Components housed by the enclosure are arranged to give the device a balanced weighting while in the hand. The device can be used for long periods at a time without fatigue.

Abstract: An oximeter device has a replaceable probe tip. The probe tip can be removed or detached from the probe unit and discarded. A replacement probe tip can be attached to the probe tip. The replaceable probe tip allows the probe unit to be reused many times, each time with new sterile probe tip.

Abstract: A microneedle patch for assessing oxygenation at a localized region of interest includes microneedle projections which extend into a region of interest, a layer of material bonded to the microneedles which allows the patch to releasably engage the localized region of interest, and a paramagenetic material dispersed within the patch. An oxygen impermeable layer of material may be disposed over the oxygen permeable layer of material such that environmental oxygen is inhibited from interacting with the paramagnetic material.
