Abstract
A number of embodiments of an oximeter sensor having a flat lower surface for interfacing with the patient are disclosed. Each sensor includes a laminated sensor housing. Part of a cable that interconnects the oximeter sensor with an oximeter is disposed within this laminated sensor housing. In one embodiment, a foam preform having a flat lower surface is disposed between an upper film assembly that is sealed to a lower film assembly which collectively define an oximeter sensor housing. This preform includes a slot in which the cable may be positioned. In another embodiment, the upper and lower film assemblies of the sensor housing are sealed together at a location which is at least generally coplanar with the lower extreme of the cable to provide the desired flat lower surface for the laminated oximeter sensor housing.
