LIVING BODY MODEL, PSEUDO-BIOLOGICAL INFORMATION GENERATOR USING THE MODEL, AND LIVING BODY SIMULATOR USING THE GENERATOR COMPATIBLE WITH PULSE OXIMETER

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a living body model, a pseudo-biological information generator using the model, and a living body simulator using the generator and compatible with a pulse oximeter which show operator's degree of skill of using a biological information monitoring apparatus utilizing an optical means. PSOLUTION: A finger model 22 emits pseudo-transmitted light 46 synchronizing with irradiation light 44 and having an arbitrary characteristic from a probe light emitting section 16 of a pulse oximeter. The finger model emits the pseudo-transmitted light 46 as if it is the irradiation light 44 transmitted through a living body while being affected by the living body. With such a configuration, the finger model can respond to a pulse oximeter with a living body of an arbitrary condition reproduced and can provide one's degree of skill of using the pulse oximeter.
