Technology Overview

The following chapter describes the general principles of operation, parameters and measurements used by the Respiree RS001 products.
The RS001 Respiree Cardio-respiratory Monitor uses an all optical approach for direct measurement of pulse oximetry (similar as that of conventional pulse oximeters) and direct measurement of respiratory rate from the chest. The Near Infra-red sensor module is common to both measurements.
To measure pulse oximetry and that measures displays Pulse Rate (PR or HR) and Arterial Oxygen Saturation (Sp02), RS001 Cardio-respiratory Monitor uses a finger adapter and a switch on the RS001 monitor to switch to the pulse oximetry mode.
To measure respiratory rate (RR), RS001 Cardio-respiratory Monitor uses a disposable patch that allows the sensor to connect to the chest for measurement of chest-thorax movements. A switch on the RS001 monitor allows the sensor to switch the respiratory rate measurement mode.
To measure respiratory rate on the chest, the Respiree Cardio-respiratory Monitor makes use of the direct-contract optical diffuse reflectance principle of operation as shown in the figure below. The light absorption changes due to stretching of the skin is measured from a photo-sensor. Adaptive filters to remove noise and motion as well as to calculate respiratory rate accurately are utilized.
This figure is for conceptual purposes only.Respiree RS001 Cardio
Respiratory Monitor -1

To measure pulse oximetry on the chest, the Respiree Cardio-respiratory Monitor makes us of the photo-photoplethysmography effect that measures the amount of light absorbed by the varying quantities of arterial blood changes.

General Description for Oxygen Saturation (Sp02)

Pulse oximetry is governed by the following principles:

  • Oxyhemoglobin (oxygenated blood) and dexoyhemoglobin (non-oxygenated blood) differ in their absorption of red and infrared light (spectrophotometry)
  • The amount of arterial blood in tissue changes with your pulse (photoplethysmography). Therefore, the amount of light absorbed by the varying quantities of arterial blood changes as well.

General Description for Pulse Rate (PR or HR)
Pulse rate (PR or HR) is measured in beats per minute (BPM) and is based on the optical detection of the peripheral flow pulse.
General Description for Respiratory Rate (RR)
Respiration rate can be determined by the direct absorption change due to skin stretching. The method measures the respirations per minute (RPM).

Using RS001.2.C and RS001.2.S Cardio-respiratory Monitor

RESPIRATORY RATE (RR) Measurement (RR Mode)
To take readings for Respiratory Rate, follow the instructions below:
Note: Before use, ensure sensor is in good conditionRespiree RS001
Cardio Respiratory Monitor -3

  1. Take the sensor and piece of RS001.1.P patch for use with RS001 device. Ensure the “sensing-side” of the sensor is along the same direction as the “longest-side” of the patch window. Place the hook side of the patch with the fastener side of the RS001 device.
  2. Remove the non-adhesive part of the patch.
  3. Turn on the device by pushing the “on-off button” on the side of the sensor. The display will turn on with the initialization of “RR” as mode.
  4. Place the sensor 2 fingers from the collarbone on the left-side of the chest.
  5. Wait for 1 minute and respiratory rate (RR) will be displayed on the screen. RR is refreshed every 5 seconds.
    Note: If readings are ok, display will show “ok” under Warning Indicators. If readings are perturbed by motion or ambient light, display will show “MOT” or “SAT”. If sensor is faulty, readings will display “ERR”. See Troubleshooting.
    Note: In cases where the user has hyperopia or presbyopia, it is recommended that the patient attempt the Bluetooth pairing process first (Page
  1. before attaching the sensor to the patch. This will allow the readout to be provided immediately on the Android app upon attachment.
    Note: Once reading is complete and spot measurement is taken, remove the sensor, remove the patch, throw away the patch and turn-off the sensor. Proceed to clean down the sensor.
    WARNING: Do not remove the sensor for 1 minute when the sensor is on the patient.

PULSE OXIMETRY (PR, Sp02) Measurement (HR Mode)

To take readings for Pulse Oximetry, follow the instructions below:
Note: Before use, ensure sensor is in good conditionRespiree RS001
