Pulse oximetry sensor with improved appendage cushion

摘要: The invention is directed to reusable, clip-type oximetry sensors that comprise opposing top and bottom members. In one aspect, the sensor includes a resilient spring member interposed between members provide closing force, wherein comprises tensile compressive portions. That is, upon positioning patient appendage in different portions of are tension compression so as combinatively an enhanced force utilized secure may be molded, monolithic construction, comprising elastomeric material. another inventive cushions interconnected via snap-fit engagement. engagement provided by plurality interconnecting pairs (e.g., projections mating recesses), connection axes each pair transversely disposed yield interconnection two-dimensional restraint assemblies
