About this trial

The aim of the study is to experimentally compare measured perfusion index values between smartwatch and a medical grade pulse oximeter in healthy subjects at rest and with and without motion artifacts and during exercise.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Healthy Adult Volunteer

Disqualifiers

Post-traumatic upper limb conditions affecting finger or arm perfusion

Injuries or diseases of the skin of the fingers and arm

Any acute phase of any disease

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Resting conditions

    Other intervention

    The volunteers hand is at rest and Perfusion index readings are taken for six minutes from pulse oximeter and smartwatch

  • Movement artifacts

    Other intervention

    The volunteer periodically spreads his/her fingers and clenches them into a fist, and Perfusion index readings are taken for six minutes from pulse oximeter and smartwatch.

  • Circulation constriction

    Other intervention

    The volunteers arm is constricted using a cuff to measure non-invasive blood pressure. The perfusion index value is monitored during the time of cuff pressure and cuff release. The measurement is followed by a 4-minute pause to allow the vascular supply to stabilize. The measurement is repeated three times.

  • Physical exercise

    Other intervention

    The volunteer is seated on the exercise bike, rests his forearms on the handlebars and is instructed not to move his arms. The volunteer\'s heart rate is controlled to increase to 120 beats per minute. For five minutes, the perfusion index is recorded from a pulse oximeter and smartwatch.
