Objectives: Cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) may be a relevant parameter to assess brain oxygenation in intensive care. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is able to measure this parameter, but ...

Effective management of critically ill patients requires not only optimisation of systemic haemodynamics but also assurance of adequate oxygen delivery at the tissue level. Traditional monitoring of ...

A paint-on, transparent bandage containing phosphorescent materials reads the amount of oxygen reaching transplanted tissue -- a critical component of a transplant's success. Existing oximeter ...
