Abstract

Blood gas measurements provide vital clinical information in critical care. Here we report a new generation of noninvasive device for respiratory status assessment at point of care based on transcutaneous diffusion rate. The startup time of this device is independent of skin temperature, so the measurement can be made quickly at regular body temperature.
