Abstract: A characteristic (e.g., SpO2) of a user's physiological signals can be estimated using a pulse oximeter. In some examples, inconsistent measurement of the physiological characteristic may occur despite the underlying physiological signals having quality characteristics consistent with physiologically valid signals showing a consistent cardiac signal indicative of accurate measurement of the physiological characteristic. In particular, the measurement inconsistency may be associated with a spatially localized region. Such measurement inconsistency may result in an incorrect, low estimate of the physiological characteristic relative to the true characteristic (e.g., the SpO2 estimate may skew lower than the true SpO2). An algorithm may be used to detect spatially localized measurement inconsistency and to mitigate or reduce its effect to improve the accuracy of the estimate of the physiological characteristic.

Abstract: A hot melt adhesive based on ethylene-2-ethylhexyl acrylate copolymer finds use in packaging applications where high heat resistance, as well as good cold tolerance, is required.
