Calibration of a New Reflectance Oximeter.

University Hospital, Grenoble10 enrolled

Overview

This study is about the development of a new medical device for the monitoring of of sleep disordered breathing. This device is developed by the CEA-LETI-LE2S and will be composed of an oximeter, an actimeter in order to measure the activity level of the subject, his state of sleeplessness/sleep, and a CO2 partial pressure transcutaneous sensor (PtcCO2). Developing this device is realized in several steps : a study (ALMOST) is already in progress and its goal is to acquire a database of polysomnography to create automatic algorithms in order to detect respiratory disorders with this device under development. The main goal of the study is to calibrate the oxymeter under development.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Calibration of the oximeter in normoxic situation

Measures with ALTITRAINER200® system Ambiant air : 98-96 % partial pressure in O2

Time frame: 2 hours

Calibration of the oximeter in hypoxia situation

Measures with ALTITRAINER200® system Situation 1 : 90 % (92-88%) partial pressure in O2 Situation 2 : 85% (87-83%) partial pressure in O2 Situation 3 : 80% (82-78%) partial pressure in O2 Situation 4 : 75%(77%-73%) partial pressure in O2
