Intra-tracheal multiplexed sensing of contact pressure and perfusion (2021)
Journal Article

Incorrect endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff inflation pressure causes significant problems for intubated patients. The technical development and first in vivo use of a smart ETT for measurements at the cuff-trachea interface during mechanical ventilation...

Localised plasmonic hybridisation mode optical fibre sensing of relative humidity (2021)
Journal Article

This work reports an optical fibre probe functionalised with ‘cotton-shaped’ gold-silica nanostructures for relative humidity (RH) monitoring. The sensor response utilises the localised surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of self-assembled nanostructure...

Optical Fibre Sensor for Capillary Refill Time and Contact Pressure Measurements under the Foot (2021)
Journal Article

Capillary refill time (CRT) refers to the time taken for body tissue to regain its colour after an applied blanching pressure is released. Usually, pressure is manually applied and not measured. Upon release of pressure, simple mental counting is typ... Read More about Optical Fibre Sensor for Capillary Refill Time and Contact Pressure Measurements under the Foot.

Optical fibre Sensor for Simultaneous Temperature and Relative Humidity Measurement: Towards Absolute Humidity Evaluation (2021)
Journal Article

Temperature and humidity are essential parameters in monitoring the health of patients in critical care. An optical fibre sensor has been developed for simultaneous measurement of relative humidity (RH) and temperature at a single optical fibre tip b...

Monica Healthcare: From the research laboratory to commercial reality—A real‐life case study (2021)
Journal Article

The desire of many engineers is to see their work end up as a final product offering a real benefit to society—for a lecturer/professor at a university, this is a dream often out of reach of the majority. However, the university academic is a changed... Read More about Monica Healthcare: From the research laboratory to commercial reality—A real‐life case study.

Development and validation of a novel fibre-optic respiratory rate sensor (FiRRS) integrated in oxygen delivery devices (2021)
Journal Article

© 2021 The Author(s). Respiratory rate (RR) monitoring provides crucial information on the overall health condition of patients and a reliable, low cost RR monitor for normal hospital inpatient or home use would be of significant benefit. The propose... Read More about Development and validation of a novel fibre-optic respiratory rate sensor (FiRRS) integrated in oxygen delivery devices.
