| Abstract | A pulse oximeter is a medical electronic instrument that measures the oxygen saturation (SaO/sub 2/) of arterial blood and pulse rate by non-invasive techniques. It enables prompt recognition of hypoxemia. In the transmittance type pulse oximeter that CSIO has developed, the absorption of light by oxygenated and reduced hemoglobin is measured at two wavelengths 660 nm (red) and 940 nm (infrared). At each wavelength, the light detected by the photodiode consists of a cardiac synchronous AC signal arising from arterial blood volume pulsations, superimposed on a DC level. The DC level depends on LED intensity, tissue absorption, path length, and detector sensitivity. The tissue absorption and path length may vary widely between individuals and probe site. The ratio of red and infrared signals after normalisation is calculated and is related to arterial oxygen saturation. The SaO/sub 2/ is finally calculated using the well known Mendelson and Kent equation which is derived based on Beer Lambert law. In CSlO's pulse oximeter, a Nellcor finger clip probe is employed. The system operates at 400 Hz which is locked with power line frequency. Constant current feedback circuits are employed for driving the LEDs in a particular sequence. The detector output is given to sample and hold circuits for demultiplexing the three signals namely red, ambient and infrared. Our oximeter has provision for high and low alarm settings of SaO/sub 2/ from 50% to 100% and pulse rate setting from 30 BPM to 250 BPM. It also gives alarm conditions if the probe is accidentally disconnected from the finger. The SaO/sub 2/ is correctly measured in the range of 65 to 100% within /spl plusmn/2% accuracy and pulse rate within /spl plusmn/3 bpm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
