Determining the effect of implant surgery on blood oxygen saturation of the adjacent tooth
Background: Implant surgery requires local anesthesia and drilling. This surgery may affect the blood circulation of the adjacent teeth. In this study, we evaluated the blood oxygen saturation of the healthy adjacent tooth with a pulse oximeter, during ...

Monte Carlo Analysis of Optical Interactions in Reflectance and Transmittance Finger Photoplethysmography [PDF]
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a non-invasive photometric technique that measures the volume changes in arterial blood. Recent studies have reported limitations in developing and optimising PPG-based sensing technologies due to unavailability of the ...

Effect of using disposable polyethylene bag as a probe cover or finger cover in pulse oximetry
Background: Consumer-grade pulse oximeters are used to monitor blood oxygen levels (SpO2) at home. Sharing a pulse oximeter with family members in isolation centers or home isolation due to COVID-19 may increase the chances of cross-infection.
