Instrument to detect syncope and the onset of shock

Abstract: Currently the diagnosis of hemorrhagic shock is essentially clinical, relying on the expertise of nurses and doctors. One of the first measurable physiological changes that marks the onset of hemorrhagic shock is a decrease in capillary blood flow. Diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) quantifies this decrease. DCS collects and analyzes multiply scattered, coherent, near infrared light to assess relative blood flow. This work presents a preliminary study using a DCS instrument with human subjects undergoing a… Show more

“…1(a). The construction details can be found in our previous reports 22 , 23 . The core DCS components that enabled this miniaturization were a relatively inexpensive and small 785-nm LD (LD785-SH300, Thorlabs, Newton, New Jersey) and a custom, hardware-based time tagger using a programmable system-on-a-chip (PSoC) for implementing a software correlator.…”

“…In fact, there is no noticeable, consistent difference between the two. Notably, it also happens in previous, basic phantoms with a single, large tube running through them 6,7 . This suggests that unlike Doppler-based techniques, DCS is insensitive to the direction of the flow that it is measuring.…”

“…Autocorrelation plots were taken using a multi-channel diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) instrument 7 developed at RMD, Inc. for both the twisting and straight sections of the phantom. Three 30 second runs were completed for each section with the syringe pump pushing Intralipid through the phantom at 0, 0.2, 10, and 20 ml/min, as well as water at 20 ml/min and Intralipid pushed through by hand at about 30 ml/min.…”

“…In experimental models of decreased cardiac output due to simulated hypovolemia (lower body negative pressure) indicators of peripheral perfusion indicate hypoperfusion of the skin (6)(7)(8). In experimental models of decreases in cardiac output (CO) either due to tamponade or endotoxin infusion, sublingual microcirculatory perfusion decreases while its restored following resuscitation (removal of tamponade and fluids) (9).…”
