Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to sensors for measuring physiological parameters and more specifically to sensors for measuring blood gas concentrations, pressures, and other physiological parameters in the tissue of a patient.
  • Tissue probes are devices which are adapted to be inserted into the tissue of a patient to measure various physiological parameters such as oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration, pH, and pressure. These sensors are typically carried by a probe which is disposed at the end of a long flexible catheter.
  • the prior art has relied upon a catheter introducer which is more commonly used to provide access for catheters and other instruments directly into the vessels of a patient.
  • the introducer includes a needle and an overlying sleeve or cannula which is carried by the needle.
  • the needle and sleeve are inserted into the tissue bed and the needle is removed leaving the sleeve in place with the cannula defining a channel into the tissue bed.
  • the flexible catheter can then be
  • SUBSTITUTE SHEET introduced through the cannula up to the point where the sensor contacts the tissue at the end of the sleeve. At this location the sensor can be activated to provide the measurements of interest.

  • a chemical indicator including an oxygen quenching fluorescent dye is disposed in the sensor region and interrogated by incident light from the fiber.
  • the fluorescent dye includes a reversible chemical indicator having fluorophors which fluoresce in response to the incident light, with an intensity which is dependent upon the concentration of oxygen.

  • the probe includes a needle having a wall defining a lumen which extends between distal and proximal ends along an elongate axis of the needle.
  • Means is included in the needle for defining a point along the axis at the distal end of the needle, while other portions of the needle define at least one window extending through the wall. This window provides access for an analyte or other physiological parameter of interest to pass from the tissue outside the needle to the lumen inside the needle.
  • the sensor is disposed in the lumen and provided with characteristics which are variable in accordance with a particular property of the analyte. Means responsive to these characteristics of the sensor determine the particular property of the analyte in the tissue.
