Blood Oxygen Saturation Measurement Method And Apparatus
A blood oxygen saturation measurement method includes: acquiring a pressure measurement signal between a blood oxygen saturation measurement apparatus and an object; in response to determining that the pressure measurement value is within a preset range, and acquiring a blood oxygen saturation measurement signal of the object; and according to the blood oxygen saturation measurement signal of the object, obtaining a blood oxygen saturation measurement value of the object.
NON-INVASIVE BLOOD GLUCOSE SENSOR
In general, regardless of using an optical method or an electrical AC resistance impedance method, non-invasive blood glucose measurement has a problem in that variations in the level of glucose contained in blood are too small to be measured as a signal, and thus measurement results are inaccurate due to noises generated during measurement and errors caused by the difficulty in consistent measurement. To solve this problem, the present invention provides a non-invasive blood glucose sensor includes: a measurement-unit body; an impedance electrode sensor provided on an inner bottom surface of the measurement-unit body; a signal-generation and measurement unit configured to measure impedance while scanning frequency by supplying multiple frequencies to the impedance electrode sensor; a blood sensor configured to measure the amount of blood flowing through a body part brought into contact with the impedance electrode sensor; and a status display LED configured to display different colors according to the amount of blood measured using the blood sensor. Owing to this configuration, the present invention has an effect of measuring an accurate blood glucose level in a non-invasive manner.
SIGNAL MEASUREMENT METHOD AND APPARATUS
A signal measurement method and a signal measurement apparatus (1000) are provided. A mode selection switch (11) may be used to enable a multi-lead measurement mode, to obtain signals of a plurality of leads and a status of a user. When quality of the signals of the plurality of leads is good or the user is in a static state, extracted features of the signals of the plurality of leads are output. When the signals of the plurality of leads are poor and the user is in a moving state, the mode selection switch (11) is used to switch to a single-lead mode with right leg drive, to obtain a signal of a single lead. A common-mode signal is eliminated from the signal of the single lead by using a negative feedback of a right leg drive electrode, and a feature of the signal of the single lead is output.
