Experience in the field

• Pulse oximeter sensor engineering when it was new medical technology in 1984
• Transcutaneous CO2 and O2 sensors
• Anesthesia monitors
• Metabolic measurement monitors
• Engineering documentation, specifications, data analysis, verification and validation, clinical and usability testing, and manufacturing support.

What’s the most interesting Medical Device project you’ve worked on and why?

I really loved watching the robotic motion of the automated testing and production equipment for the high voleme pulse oximeter sensors that one of my teams produced. It was exciting to work with that system. Althrough pulse oximetry seems like a mystery, the theory pulse ox measurement is simple and elegent. It’s interesting to watch that theory come to life.
