Graduation Project
Design and Implementation Low Cost Pulse Oximeter
Pulse oximetry has gained wide acceptance as a non-invasive method for monitoring oxygenation of hemoglobin in arterial blood and heart beat. However, pulse oximeters are widely used for this purpose, as well as it is an integral part of numerous medical procedures, including patient monitoring in the operating room and intensive care situations, pulmonary evaluations, neonatal diagnoses, oral surgeries, and the use of general anesthesia. It is not surprising therefore, that pulse oximeters one of the most requested pieces of medical equipment in developing world hospitals.
The purpose of this project is to design a low-cost pulse oximeter that delivers to the EWH organzation to help the third world countries.
In this design we observe choosing parts with low cost and high efficiency that could reduce the cost of our design, we also add to our consider that our circuits has to be simple and easy made circuits so it also can be made by other biomedical engineers to provide a higher number of this devices to cover every hospital in development countries. In additions it can be owned and delivered to every person needs to track his personal health more efficiently, and monitor the status of another individual periodically.
