摘要：
The present invention relates to a novel non-invasive perfusion/resistancestatus monitor system and methods of using the same, and more specifically, avascular perfusion status monitor system receiving and processing signals fromat least two pulse oximeter probes, where each of the at least two pulseoximeter probes are situated at advantageously different locations in apatient. Novel pulse oximeter probes are configured to be placed,respectively, across the lip or cheek, across the septum or nares of the noseand on the tongue. These probes are fabricated to provide signals to estimatearterial oxygen saturation. Conventional oximeter probes also can beconfigured to function according to the novel methods of determiningdifferences in peripheral blood flow and/or resistance described herein. Thepresent invention also relates to a combined nasal pulse oximeter probe/nasalcannula. The present invention also relates to other devices that combine apulse oximeter probe with a device supplying oxygen or other oxygen-containinggas to a person in need thereof. In certain embodiments, an additionallimitation of a control means to adjust the flow rate of such gas is provided,where such control is directed by the blood oxygen saturation data obtainedfrom the pulse oximeter probe.
