Design and development of a portable pulseoximetry system
2010
Heart is the most important part in human body. Thus, it is important to follow-up and monitor its
condition. Heart rate (HR) and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) are important indicators directly
related to heart-pulmonary system. Monitoring of HR and SpO2 offers us a good indication of heart
functionality. Therefore, it is crucial to design and develop a homemade inexpensive device for
measuring HR and SpO2. Pulse Oximeter (PO) is an opto-electronic non-invasive medical instrument
capable of measuring and recording the changes of HR and SpO2 at the finger tip. In this paper we will
demonstrate the overall process involved in the development of a portable (PO) system which can be
used for health condition monitoring or for educational and research purposes.
