ABSTRACT:
A non-invasive, electro-optical sensor probe and a method for its use are disclosed. The sensor probe measures light extinction during transillumination of a portion of blood-perfused tissue. A malleable layer makes the sensor particularly well-suited for attachment to a central site, such as the patient's tongue, cheek, gum or lip, to provide accurate oxygen saturation and pulse rate readings for patients with lowered or inconsistent peripheral circulation.
