Figure Lengend Snippet: Continuously oxygen saturation (StO 2 ) estimated from oxygenated and deoxygenated haemoglobin concentrations with time during K E ’s perfusion cycle. Median smoothing of the StO 2 is shown over the raw estimates. Left: the final hour of EVNP, shortly after the final repositioning of the reflectance probe on K E . Right: the final 20 min of EVNP with the RBFi derived decompensation event window highlighted.
Article Snippet: Spectroscopic measurements were performed using an Ocean Optics reflectance kit consisting of a FLAME-S-VIS-NIR spectrometer, an HL-2000-HP-FHSA tungsten halogen light source and a hand-held reflection probe placed on the kidney surface.
Techniques: Derivative Assay
