The fingertip is illuminated by a cold light source used in the pulse oximeter, giving the impression that it is red. The device is able to estimate the amount of oxygen in the red blood cell by examining the light from the light source that goes through the finger.
In reality, the majority of contemporary smartwatches and fitness trackers come equipped with SpO2 sensors and stats. The main problem is that not all manufacturers of wearables employ these sensors in the same manner.
The Global Fingertip SpO2 Sensor Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
In response to FDA worries regarding fingertip devices, BioIntelli Sense introduced skin-color sensitivity to pulse oximeter chips. Other wearable gadgets can make use of a patented SpO2 sensor chipset, integrated processing, and reference design capability.
Optical sensor technology in fingertip monitors provides medical-grade precision of oxygen level measuring across skin tones and when moving. For COVID-19 patients in particular, pulse oximeters are an essential component of patient monitoring since they provide real-time assessments of blood oxygen levels.
Darker skin produces readings that overstate the quantity of dissolved oxygen in a patient’s blood since oximeters use light to determine blood oxygen saturation.
BioIntelliSense has joined the group of companies that can create a pulse oximeter that accurately accounts for variations in skin colour and can also measure blood oxygen levels of patients while they are moving, which is essential for giving patients being transported to a hospital from the scene of an accident the proper amount of supplemental oxygen.
It is significant for the pulse oximetry category to address these fundamental skin pigmentation and motion issues in the detection of blood oxygen levels because it enables the democratisation of this cutting-edge technology across consumer and medical grade devices.
The BioIntelliSense SpO2 solution has shown consistent accuracy for darkest skin tones — on par with light skin tones — including at low oxygen saturation ranges in numerous clinical hypoxia investigations, with and without motion protocols.
