`
`The Medical Science Series is the official book series of the
`International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering
`(IFMBE) and the International Organization for Medical Physics
`(IOMP).
`
`IFMBE
`
`The IFMBE was established in 1959 to provide medical and biological
`engineering with an international presence. The Federation has a long history of
`encouraging and promoting international cooperation and collaboration in the use
`of technology for improving the health and life quality of man.
`
`The IFMBE is an organization that is mostly an affiliation of national societies.
`Transnational organizations can also obtain membership. At present there are 42
`national members, and one transnational member with a total membership in
`excess of 15 000. An observer category is provided to give personal status to
`groups or organizations considering formal affiliation.
`Objectives
`
`• To reflect the interests and initiatives of the affiliated organizations.
`• To generate and disseminate information of interest to the medical and
`biological engineering community and international organizations.
`• To provide an international forum for the exchange of ideas and concepts.
`• To encourage and foster research and application of medical and biological
`engineering knowledge and techniques in support of life quality and cost-effective
`health care.
`• To stimulate international cooperation and collaboration on medical and
`biological engineering matters.
`• To encourage educational programmes which develop scientific and technical
`expertise in medical and biological engineering.
`
`Activities
`The IFMBE has published the journal Medical and Biological Engineering and
`Computing for over 34 years. A new journal Cellular Engineering was established
`in 1996 in order to stimulate this emerging field in biomedical engineering. In
`IFMBE News members are kept informed of the developments in the Federation .
`Clinical Engineering Update is a publication of our division of Clinical
`Engineering. The Federation also has a division for Technology Assessment in
`Health Care.
`
`Every three years, the IFMBE holds a World Congress on Medical Physics and
`Biomedical Engineering, organized in cooperation with the IOMP and the
`IUPESM. In addition, annual, milestone, regional conferences are organized in
`different regions of the world, such as the Asia Pacific, Baltic, Mediterranean,
`African and South American regions.

`
`The administrative council of the IFMBE meets once or twice a year and is the
`steering body for the IFMBE. The council is subject to the rulings of the General
`Assembly which meets every three years.

`IOMP
`
`The IOMP was founded in 1963. The membership includes 64 national societies,
`two international organizations and 12 000 individuals. Membership of IOMP
`consists of individual members of the Adhering National Organizations. Two
`other forms of membership are available, namely Affiliated Regional Organization
`and Corporate Members. The IOMP is administered by a Council, which consists
`of delegates from each of the Adhering National Organizations; regular meetings
`of Council are held every three years at the International Conference on Medical
`Physics (ICMP). The Officers of the Council are the President, the Vice-President
`and the Secretary-General. IOMP committees include: developing countries,
`education and training; nominating; and publications.
`
`Objectives
`
`• To organize international cooperation in medical physics in all its aspects,
`especially in developing countries.
`• To encourage and advise on the formation of national organizations of medical
`physics in those countries which lack such organizations.
`
`Activities
`Official publications of the IOMP are Physiological Afeasurement, Physics iii
`Medicine and Biology andthe A·ledical Science Series, all published by Institute of
`Physics Publishing . The IOMP publishes a bulletin Medical Physics World twice
`a year.
`Two Council meetings and one General Assembly are held every three years at
`the ICMP. The most recent ICMPs were held in Kyoto, Japan ( 1991) and Rio de
`Janeiro, Brazil (1994). Future conferences are scheduled for Nice, France (1997)
`and Chicago, USA (2()00). These conferences are normally held in collaboration
`with the IFMBE to form the World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical
`Engineering. The IOMP also sponsors occasional international conferences.,
`workshops and courses.

`PREFACE
`
`Pulse oximetry was introduced in 1983 as a noninvasive method for monitoring
`the arterial oxygen saturation of a patient's blood. Recognized worldwide as the
`standard of care in anesthesiology, it is widely used in intensive care, operating
`rooms, emergency, patient transport, general wards, birth and delivery, neonatal
`care, sleep laboratories, home care and in veterinary medicine. It provides early
`information on problems in the delivery of oxygen to the tissue. Those problems
`may arise because of improper gas mixtures, blocked hoses or airways,
`inadequate ventilation, diffusion, or circulation, etc. More than 35 companies
`manufacture and distribute the more than 300 000 pulse oximeters presently in
`use in the USA.
`This book emphasizes the design of pulse oximeters. It details both the
`hardware and software required to fabricate a pulse oximeter as well as the
`equations, methods, and software required for effective functioning.
`Additionally, it details the testing methods and the resulting accuracy. The book
`should be of interest to biomedical engineers, medical physicists, and health care
`providers who want to know the technical workings of their measuring
`instruments.
`Chapter 1 reviews the methods of transport of oxygen to the tissue by
`ventilation, perfusion to the blood, binding to hemoglobin in the red blood cells,
`and transport through the blood circulation. Chapter 2 describes the problems
`and diseases that can occur in oxygen transport, which motivate us to measure
`oxygenation. In chapter 3, we review the many ways oxygenation has been
`measured in the past, the CO-oximeter used as the gold standard, and provide an
`introduction to the pulse oximeter.
`Chapter 4 begins with Beer's law for the absorption of light by hemoglobin
`and oxyhemoglobin, and develops the equations required for converting
`measured light transmission through the tissue to display the hemoglobin oxygen
`saturation. The light-emitting diodes, which alternately emit red light at 660 nm
`and infrared light at 940 nm and require precise wavelength control, are
`described in chapter 5. Chapter 6 covers the variety of light sensors, with
`emphasis on the single photodiode typically used.
`Chapter 7 details the design of reusable and disposable probes and their
`flexible cables. The probes can transmit light through either the finger or ear, or
`use reflected light from the scalp or other skin surface. Chapter 8 covers the
`hardware, with block diagrams showing how red and infrared signals are
`amplified to yield the ratio of pulse-added red absorbance to the pulse-added
`infrared absorbance. These signals are used to control light-emitting diode levels
`and the ratio is used to calculate oxygen saturation. The flow charts and

`algorithms to perform oxygen saturation calculations are given in chapter 9, with
`worked out examples. Synchronization with the electrocardiogram improves
`accuracy diiring patient movement.
`Chapter 10 describes ways to test performance of pulse oximeters: the
`
`technician's finger, electronic simulators, in vitro test systems , and optoclectronic
`
`simulalors. In chapter 11,we find the resulting accuracies and descriptions of the
`inaccuracies caused by alternative forms of hemoglobin, optical and electrical
`interference, colored nail polish, etc. Chapter 12 describes the interface between
`the pulse oximeter, the operator, and the external world. Chapter 13 covers the
`many applications for pulse oximetry in intensive care, operating rooms,
`emergency, patient transport, general words, birth and delivery, neonatal care,
`sleep laboralories, home care, and in veterinary medicine.
`A glossary provides definitions of terms from both the medical and the
`engineering world. We also provide instructional objectives as a means of
`provoking further thought toward learning the information. We gleaned much of
`the design information from operator's manuals and from patents; periodical
`literature provided more general information. Rather than giving an exhaustive
`list of references, we have included review articles and books that can serve as an
`entry into further study. All contributors are from the Department of Electrical
`and Computer Engineering at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA,
`and worked as a team to write this book. We would welcome suggestions for
`improvement of subsequent printings and editions.

`
`NORMAL OXYGEN TRANSPORT
`Susanne A Clark
`
`Oxygen is vital to the functioning of each cell in the human body. In the absence
`of oxygen for a prolonged amount of Litne. cells will die. 7'hus, oxygen delivery
`to ccils is an important indicator of a patieni's health.
`Several methods have been developed to analyze oxygen delivery. Pulse
`oximetry is a common, noninvasive method used in clinical environmenis. This
`book discusses pulse oximetry, from applications to signal processing. Before
`continuing, it is essential to understand normal oxygen transport, which is the
`subject of this chapter.
`Oxygen delivery to cells requires the ilse of the respiratory system as well as
`the circulatory system. Ventilation is the Initial step, moving air into and out of
`the lungs. Within the lungs. gas exchange occurs. Oxygen is diffused into the
`blood, while carbon dioxide, a byproduct of cellular respiration. diffuses into the
`lungs. The oxygenated blood circulates around the body until u reaches oxygen
`depicted areas, wheie oxygen is diffused to cells. and carbon dioxide is
`transferred to the blood returning to the lungs. The ventilatory process is
`controlled by neurons in the brain steni. The circulalory system also can
`modulate cardiac output to effect the oxygen delivery.
`
`1.1 VENTILATORY CONTROL
`
`Ventilation is the involuntary, rhythmic process of moving air in and out of the
`lungs. This process is controlled by respiratory neurons in the brain stem. The
`respiratory neurons excite motor neurons, which in turn cause the movement of
`respiratory muscles. The output of the respiratory neurons is modulated by
`chemoreceptons and nzeehanoreceptors.
`
`1.1.1 Neural control
`
`The respiratory neurons in the brain stem are responsible for the paltern
`generation in normal breathing. The rate and depth of ventilation are modulated
`by these neurons. The respiratory neurons excite motor neurons in the spinal
`cord. The excitation of the motor neurons causes the contraction of the
`diaphragm, pectoral muscles, and intercostal muscles. All of these muscles

`combine efforts pulling the ribcage up and out, expanding the lungs, causing
`inspiration. The activity of respiratory neurons is thought to occur spontaneously,
`with occasional inhibition allowing the respiratory muscles to relax. Thi,~ causes
`the rib cage to contract which yields expiration.
`
`1.1.2 Respiratory feedback
`
`The brain stem receives feedback from many mechanical and chemical receptors.
`The input from these neurons is analyzed by the respiratory neurons to determine
`the appropriate rate and depth of ventilation, Mechanoreceptors give feedback
`related to mechanical aspects of breathing. For example, stretch receptors are
`mechanoreceptors that provide feedback on the expansion of the lung and chest
`during both inspiration and expiration. An inflation index is the level of feedback
`provided that causes inhibition of inspiration, preventing overinflation of the
`lungs. A deflation index serves a similar purpose in expiration. hindering the
`collapse of the lungs.
`Chemoreceptors provide information on the level of carbon dioxide, oxygen,
`and hydrogen ions in the blood, Chemoreceptors are located in the carotid
`arleries, as the oxygenated blood is being sent to the brain, and in the aorta,
`shortly after the oxygenated blood is being pumped from the heart to the body.
`Oxygen levels under normal conditions are high in the systemic arteries, and
`carbon dioxide and hydrogen levels are low.
`The brain stein must process all of the information it receives and no single
`factor controls ventilation. Under normal breathing conditions, the brain stem is
`most sensitive to the levels of carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The oxygen
`concentrations are only important when the level is extremely low. Consider an
`extremely high level of carbon dioxide present iii the blood, such as would ircur
`during maximal exercise. However. stretch receptors indicate that the lung and
`chest are at maximal expansion. meaning the inflation index has been reached.
`Thus, the rate of breaching increases to compensate without a proportional
`increase in chest and lung expansion.
`An unusual feature of ventilation is that breathing can be brought under
`voluntary control lo some extent. However. it is not possible to commit suicide by
`refusing to breathe, Once the individual loses consciousness, the input from
`chemorcceplors will cause ventilation to he restored.
`
`1.2 VENTILATORY MECHANICS
`
`Ventilatory mechanics are based on the principle of air flow from areas of high
`pressure to areas of lower pressure. The contraction of the intercostal muscles,
`pectoral muscles, and the diaphragin causes the thoracic cavity to expand,
`decreasing the pressure in the thoracic cavity. The atmospheric pressure is higher
`than the pressure inside the lungs, causing air to flow into the lungs, which is
`termed inspiration. The relaxation of the intercostai muscles and the diaphragm
`causes the volume of the lungs to decrease, increasing the pressure in the thoracic
`cavity. As the pressure in the lungs increases reaching levels above the
`atmospheric pressure, air flows out of the lungs, which is referred to as
`expiration.

`Ill Inspiration
`As discussed prevjousiy, the brain stem exciles motel· neurons in [lie spinal cord,
`which, in turn, causes die contraction of the diaphragm, the pectoral muscles, and
`tiltercostal muscles, Jocated hetween the ribs. The contraction Of the diaphragm
`causes the flattening and lengthening of the thoracic cavity. The intercostal
`muscles and pectorn] muscles pull the ribcage up and out. Both of these sets of-
`muscles work to expand the lungs. This means thal pressure will be reduced
`williin the lungs, shice the air present will have a greate, volume to expand in.
`This will create a pressure differential between the air outside the body and the
`air inside the body. Thus, ail flows into the body (see figure 1.1 (a)).

`
`Air travels through the nasa] cavity. Cilia are Inicroscopic hairs within the
`nasal cavity [liat act to eliminate pollutants from entering the respiratory trac[.
`Air and food both go through the pharynx. When food is swallowed, the
`epiglottis ( par[ of the tarynx), pharynx, and mouth cavity work together to shut
`off the opening to the trachea to avoid the entry of food particles into the lungs.
`The larynx is commonly reterred M as the voice box. Besides assisting with
`Separation ot food particles trom air, the larynx contains the cricoid cartilage
`which reinforces the airway and assists iii keeping it open. The lai·ynx also
`contains the vocal cords. As air vibrates over the vocal cords, a sound is
`produced. The variation in elasticity and tension of the vocal cords determines the
`pitch of the sound.
`The trachea ic composed of ribbed cartilage which extends 10 cm to the
`bronchi. The trachea also contai,1 Cilia which act to filter out furlher pollutants.
`Two bronchi provide a path to each lung (see figure 1.2).
`Each bronchus divides into even narrower brotichioles. Each bron ,hiole ha
`in lurn , end in alveola r sacs. Each
`five or more alveolar duas at ilie end. which ,
`alveolar sac contain several alveoli (see figure 1 . 3 ). Aiveoli are the site of gas
`exchange.
