Highly sensitive contact pressure measurements using FBG patch in endotracheal tube cuff (2016)
Journal Article
Correia, R., Blackman, O. R., Hernandez, F. U., Korposh, S., Morgan, S. P., Hayes-Gill, B. R., …Norris, A. (2016). Highly sensitive contact pressure measurements using FBG patch in endotracheal tube cuff. Proceedings of SPIE, 9916, Article 99161F. https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2236859

A method for measuring the contact pressure between an endotracheal tube cuff and the trachea was designed and developed by using a fibre Bragg grating (FBG) based optical fibre sensor. The FBG sensor is encased in an epoxy based UV-cured cuboid patc... Read More about Highly sensitive contact pressure measurements using FBG patch in endotracheal tube cuff.

Motion limitations of non-contact photoplethysmography due to the optical and topological properties of skin (2016)
Journal Article
Butler, M. J., Crowe, J. A., Hayes-Gill, B. R., & Rodmell, P. I. (2016). Motion limitations of non-contact photoplethysmography due to the optical and topological properties of skin. Physiological Measurement, 37(5), N27-N37. https://doi.org/10.1088/0967-3334/37/5/N27

Non-contact photoplethysmography (PPG) provides multiple benefits over in-contact methods, but is not as tolerant to motion due to the lack of mechanical coupling between the subject and sensor. One limitation of non-contact photoplethysmography is... Read More about Motion limitations of non-contact photoplethysmography due to the optical and topological properties of skin.

Comparison of laser Doppler and laser speckle contrast imaging using a concurrent processing system (2016)
Journal Article
Sun, S., Hayes-Gill, B. R., He, D., Zhu, Y., Huynh, N. T., & Morgan, S. P. (2016). Comparison of laser Doppler and laser speckle contrast imaging using a concurrent processing system. Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 83, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.optlaseng.2016.02.021

Full field laser Doppler imaging (LDI) and single exposure laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) are directly compared using a novel instrument which can concurrently image blood flow using both LDI and LSCI signal processing. Incorporating a commerc... Read More about Comparison of laser Doppler and laser speckle contrast imaging using a concurrent processing system.

An automated quasi-continuous capillary refill timing device (2015)
Journal Article
Blaxter, L., Morris, D. E., Crowe, J. A., Henry, C., Hill, S. J., Sharkey, D., …Hayes-Gill, B. R. (in press). An automated quasi-continuous capillary refill timing device. Physiological Measurement, 37(1), https://doi.org/10.1088/0967-3334/37/1/83

Capillary refill time (CRT) is a simple means of cardiovascular assessment which is widely used in clinical care. Currently, CRT is measured through manual assessment of the time taken for skin tone to return to normal colour following blanching of t...

Performance of a condensed electrode patch compared to a diffuse electrode array for transabdominal fetal heart rate and uterine contraction monitoring: a preliminary report (2015)
Journal Article
Hayes-Gill, B. (2015). Performance of a condensed electrode patch compared to a diffuse electrode array for transabdominal fetal heart rate and uterine contraction monitoring: a preliminary report. American Journal of Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2(3), 89-95

Objective: Intrapartum monitoring of the fetal heart rate (FHR), maternal heart rate (MHR) and uterine activity (UA) can be done noninvasively via adhesive electrodes on the parturient’s abdominal surface. This approach, requiring multiple electrodes...

Forehead reflectance photoplethysmography to monitor heart rate: preliminary results from neonatal patients (2014)
Journal Article
Grubb, M., Carpenter, J., Crowe, J. A., Teoh, J., Marlow, N., Ward, C., …Hayes-Gill, B. R. (2014). Forehead reflectance photoplethysmography to monitor heart rate: preliminary results from neonatal patients. Physiological Measurement, 35(5), https://doi.org/10.1088/0967-3334/35/5/881

Around 5%–10% of newborn babies require some form of resuscitation at birth and heart rate (HR) is the best guide of efficacy. We report the development and first trial of a device that continuously monitors neonatal HR, with a view to deployment in...

CMOS sensors for imaging blood flow (2010)
Journal Article
Morgan, S., Hayes-Gill, B., & Crowe, J. (2010). CMOS sensors for imaging blood flow. Optics and Photonics News, 21(1), 32-37. https://doi.org/10.1364/OPN.21.1.000032

Smart CMOS sensors can extract parameters of interest from incoming signals at the sensor and therefore overcome the data bottleneck between sensor and processor. This enables full-field laser Doppler blood flow imaging to be obtained at a frame rate... Read More about CMOS sensors for imaging blood flow.
