Design Specification

• Our device will utilize an adjustable arm-band design.• We will use multiple LEDs and detectors

Benefits of a Multiple LED system

• Produces more light which allows detector to see dark spots better

• Even if the crisis occurs outside of the emitance of the LED, our detectors can identify a crisis

Technique

• We will use two pulse oximeters

• This can allow us to get a baseline reading while simultaneously attempting to identify a crisis

• Preliminary testing has proven this method to be viable

Recreating a vaso-occlusion

• Vaso-occlusion causes less blood to reach tissue

• We were able to slow blood flow to the extremities using a sphygmomanometer
