Pulse oximeter is a tool to monitor oxygen saturation in the blood (arteries) and also a person's heart rate (BPM) without having to go through blood analysis. Lack or excess of oxygen in the blood will cause illness and disruption of the body's work. At a certain level, this disease can cause the risk of death. The purpose of this study was to develop a pulse oximeter. The design of this equipment uses the MAX30102 sensor.  Then the sensor will start working and Arduino will do data processing.  Data from the MAX30102 sensor entering the I2C pin is then displayed on the TFT LCD screen.  This equipment is made portable to make it easier for users to do monitoring anytime and anywhere.This test is done by comparing modules with standard measuring instruments. From the results obtained, this equipment is worthy of use because by "Pedoman Pengujian dan Kalibrasi Alat Kesehatan” DEPKES RI tahun 2001, the maximum limit in fault tolerance was Pulse Oximeter ± 1%.

Abstract: In recent times, we have realized the importance of vital signs such as Oxygen saturation and heart rate i.e beats per minute (BPM) due to the covid-19 situation worldwide. SpO2 and BPM are being used as preliminary indicators for testing a person’s health, the drop in the oxygen saturation is perceived as one of the symptoms of a person suffering from coronavirus. Oximeters are portable devices that are used to measure the SpO2 and BPM of a person. Timely measurements of oxygen saturation can aid in taking preventive measures. This paper discusses the construction and development of an IoT-based pulse oximeter that is capable of transmitting the reading obtained to any remote location wirelessly. The proposed system uses Arduino as the microcontroller which is used for signal processing and Esp-01 as the Wifi platform to enable remote data transmission. The data is communicated remotely through Blynk mobile application. This project is aimed at reducing the manual effort undergone in regularly updating the oxygen saturation to the doctor, in the case of a person undergoing home treatment. Though an oximeter is not a screening te st, it is a primary indicator of a person’s health. Keywords: Heart rate, SpO2, IoT, Arduino, BLYNK server, Red, IR.

Blood oxygen saturation meter is a tool used to monitor the state of oxygen saturation in the blood and also the patient's heart rate (BPM) and to assist in the physical assessment of the patient without going through blood gas analysis. Oxygen saturation measuring devices usually use the difference in the wavelengths of red and infrared led light that will be captured by the photodiode. The purpose of this research is to make a pulse oximeter equipped with a display of SPO2, BPM values ​​and an additional SP02 signal. The design of this measuring instrument uses the MAX30100 sensor, the minimum system circuit of Arduino ATmega328p and OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode). Data from the MAX30100 sensor enters the I2C pin on the minimum Arduino system, then the microcontroller is processed to produce the percentage of SPO2 value, BPM value, and SPO2 signal which is then displayed on the OLED. The test is done by comparing the module with standard measuring instruments which produces the largest % error of 0.81% for Spo2 and 0.87% for BPM. The error presentation is obtained from factor measurements, if there is finger movement it will cause a large error. From the results obtained, the tool is still feasible to use because in the "Guidelines for Testing and Calibrating Medical Devices" Ministry of Health RI 2001, the maximum limit in the pulse oximeter error tolerance is for Spo2 1% and BPM 5%.

Tobacco smoke is enormously harmful to human health, there’s no safe way to smoke. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the role of tobacco smoke compounds and their ability to damage the cardiovascular system and, in particular, to interfere with blood pressure (Brachial and radial pressure), heart rate and partly on the percentage blood Oxygen saturation. A new device has been manufactured which is unique for measuring the level of smoke, to obtained privies readings, the device had fixed to the first reference level آ and starting up from it. The effect of smoking has been studied on (26) male passive (26) active smoker volunteer, (14) female passive and (14) female active smoker participants. The results has been showed that the blood pressure and heart rate has been increased with increasing the number of cigarettes in both genders for passive and active smokers. However, this effect for male was more pronounced comparing with females for passive and active smokers. In the case of oxygen saturation concentration percentage, for males the change of oxygen concentration percentage was not stable. In other words, it was fluctuated with the number of cigarettes. But for females the oxygen concentration was decreased but not too much. This means that this effect was not pronounced. this study found آ that the most pronounced effect has been shown by male’s comparison to females for both passive and active smokers. As well as in nonsmoker’s males, the relation between heart rate and smoke level is inversely proportional. While in male and female smokers and female nonsmokers the relation is proportional. In all cases the relation between the smoke level and time of smoking is inversely proportional. Finally males& females are affected differently by tobacco use; the sensitivities to smoke for males are higher than in females for passive and active smokers in both brachial and radial blood pressure measurement.

Neonatal jaundice occurs in >80% of newborns in the first week of life owing to physiological hyperbilirubinemia. Severe hyperbilirubinemia could cause brain damage owing to its neurotoxicity, a state commonly known as kernicterus. Therefore, periodic bilirubin monitoring is essential to identify infants at-risk and to initiate treatment including phototherapy. However, devices for continuous measurements of bilirubin have not been developed yet. Here, we established a wearable transcutaneous bilirubinometer that also has oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate (HR) sensing functionalities. Clinical experiments with neonates demonstrated the possibility of simultaneous detection of bilirubin, SpO2, and HR. Moreover, our device could consistently measure bilirubin during phototherapy. These results demonstrate the potential for development of a combined treatment approach with an automatic link via the wearable bilirubinometer and phototherapy device for optimization of the treatment of neonatal jaundice.
