IR Plethysmograph - Finger Clip

Overview:

The MLT1020FC Plethysmograph is an infrared photoelectric sensor used to record changes in pulsatile blood flow from the finger. The Plethysmograph operates by recording changes in blood volume as the arterial pulse expands and contracts the microvasculature. The Plethysmograph can be plugged directly into a PowerLab Pod port, or Front-end (amplifier) such as the ML142 GP Amp or any ADInstruments Bridge Amp.

Features:

• Uses an infrared photoelectric sensor to detect changes in tissue blood volume
  
• Spring clip suitable for readings from a finger or toe
• Uses reflected infrared light and works best where the light can reflect from the bone beneath the tissue
• Can be connected to a Bridge Amp, GP Amp, or directly to a Pod port of a PowerLab

Applications:

The IR Plethysmographs can be used to record changes in blood volume as the arterial pulse expands and contracts the microvasculature.
