The focus of this Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) was to design a next generation of reflectance pulse oximeter sensor. Nellcor wanted to develop an optimized reflectance pulse oximeter sensor with reduced sensitivity to the placement of the sensor (and to composition of the sampled tissue) while accurately measuring the perfusion of the tissue (i.e. oxygen saturation). Nellcor Inc. changed the company name to Nellcor-Puritan Bennett, Inc. in 1995.
