Abstract
The aim of the project is to examine the capability of the sensor VD6281 to evaluate the Peripheral Oxygen Saturation and the Heart Rate, in real-time and non-invasively. Nowadays, the SpO2 evaluations are mostly employed by transmission pulse oximeter, photoplethysmography application that works with the red and the IR LEDs. Each LEDs emit a light beam that it passes through the irradiated tissues, interacts with these and is partly absorbed. The residual transmitted rays are collected by a photodiode, opposite to the light beams direction. In this way, the PPG signal is obtain and it allows to estimate the Peripheral Oxygen Saturation.
The measurements are essentials in the clinical environment to trace oxygen losses, in cases of severe cardiorespiratory diseases or to verify the anaesthetic efficacy
