Photonic textiles for pulse oximetry

Abstract: Biomedical sensors, integrated into textiles would enable monitoring of many vitally important physiological parameters during our daily life. In this paper we demonstrate the design and performance of a textile based pulse oximeter, operating on the forefinger tip in transmission mode. The sensors consisted of plastic optical fibers integrated into common fabrics. To emit light to the human tissue and to collect transmitted light the fibers were either integrated into a textile substrate by embroidery (produc… Show more

“…by bio-compatible glue. Another option may lay in wearable photonics textiles (Rothmaier et al, 2008) or electronics (Zysset et al, 2013). Such developments in combination with miniaturized, wireless fNIRI instrumentation will enable unobtrusive measurements in many everyday situations.…”

“…There are technologies available now that allow sensors to be woven into materials ready for detection. Plastic optical fibres (POF) can be used to measure SpO 2 with help from 690nm and 830nm lasers [16]. These fibres can be very expensive for the final product which needs to be robust and sustainable to be worn over long periods of time and in case of medical institutions, used on different patients.…”

“…NIRS and NIRI are applied in many clinical applications, using different types of instruments to track oxygenation and blood flow in tissue [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]. Many of these applications could profit from textile integrated optic devices, as described in [22].…”
