Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female subjects 18 or older (inclusive)
  • Subject is able to participate for the duration of the study
  • Subject is willing to sign an informed consent

Exclusion criteria

  • Previous injury or trauma to fingers or hands that may change blood flow or vascular supply and affect our ability to test sensors

  • Severe contact allergies that cause a reaction to standard adhesive materials such as those found in medical sensors and electrodes

Treatment and study plan

Nellcor USB Pulse Oximeter Monitor Interface Cable

Device

Volunteers are subjected to certain simulated, sensor removal conditions known to represent challenges to the sensor-off feature. Such conditions include exposing the sensor to an ambient light source, sensor slipping off the finger with the light emitter and detector facing each other or a sensor slipping off under a blanket.

Primary outcomes

  1. Report the Time Until the Device Posts "Sensor Off" After the Sensor is Removed

    Time frame: 1 minute per event, multiple events per subject. Total duration up to 1 hour

    A series of sensor-off events were collected from subjects in the study using marketed, off-the-shelf sensors. Each event was marked as pass if event duration (Timeend - Timestart) was less than or equal to 60 seconds; otherwise, the event was marked as greater than or equal to 60 seconds. The acceptance criteria is if 90% of the time the product posts Sensor Off, or any equal or higher priority alarm, within 60 seconds after sensor is removed.
