OXI_W is intended for use:
- To spot check or monitor Oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2%) and pulse rate.
- To analyze the pulse waveform (Photoplethysmography or PTG) provided by the oximeter. It only provides mathematical analysis of the input of the PTG using the first and second derivatives of the PTG values related to the microvascular condition.
- To analyze the basic rhythms of the NN or RR intervals in heart rate from the PTG, both in the time domain and in the frequency domain (short time 5 minutes). It only provides mathematical analysis of the heart rate variability values related to the autonomic nervous system function.
FEATURES:
- Photoplethysmography (PTG) analysis to assess the peripheral circulation.
- HRV (Heart Rate Variability) analysis both in the time domain and frequency domain to assess early ANS dysfunction
- Ewing Tests analysis (Valsalva maneuver, deep breathing and K30/15 tests) to assess cardiovagal failure.
PTG uses transmitted infrared and red light to measure oxygen saturation and relative blood volume in the fingertip. PTG waveform are reflective of blood movement in cutaneous vessels and can be used to identify synchronous depolarization of cardiovascular tissue.
