A sensor assembly is provided that includes a skeletal frame comprising a loop structure. The sensor assembly includes at least one physiological sensor attached to the loop structure. A coating is provided over the skeletal frame and the at least one physiological sensor to form a sensor assembly.
A sensor assembly is provided that includes a skeletal frame comprising a loop structure. The sensor assembly includes at least one physiological sensor attached to the loop structure. A coating is provided over the skeletal frame and the at least one physiological sensor to form a sensor assembly. The sensor may be placed on a patient's finger, toe, and so forth to obtain pulse oximetry or other physiological measurements. Methods of manufacturing the sensor and sensor body and of applying the sensor are also provided.
What is claimed is: 1. A sensor assembly, comprising: a skeletal frame comprising a loop structure; at least one physiological sensor attached to the loop structure; and a coating molded over the skeletal frame and the at least one physiological sensor to form a sensor assembly. 2. The sensor as
What is claimed is: 1. A sensor assembly, comprising: a skeletal frame comprising a loop structure; at least one physiological sensor attached to the loop structure; and a coating molded over the skeletal frame and the at least one physiological sensor to form a sensor assembly. 2. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the at least one physiological sensor comprises at least one of a light emitting diode or a photodetector. 3. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the sensor assembly comprises at least one of a pulse oximetry sensor, a sensor for measuring a water fraction, or a combination thereof. 4. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the skeletal frame comprises a single molded part. 5. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the frame comprises two or more parts joined to form the skeletal frame. 6. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the coating comprises a thermoplastic elastomer. 7. The sensor assembly of claim 6, wherein the thermoplastic elastomer comprises at least one of a thermoplastic polyolefin, a thermoplastic vulcanizate alloy, thermoplastic polyurethane, silicone, or a combination thereof. 8. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the coating comprises a conformable material. 9. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein no moving parts of the frame remain exposed from the coating. 10. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the sensor assembly is fluid tight. 11. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the coating is chemically bonded to the skeletal frame. 12. The sensor assembly of claim 1, comprising a pulse oximeter monitor configured to receive data from the sensor assembly. 13. The sensor assembly of claim 1, comprising a multi-parameter monitor configured to receive data from the sensor assembly. 14. The sensor assembly of claim 1, comprising at least one integrated circuit device. 15. The sensor assembly of claim 1, comprising a cable comprising one or more integrated circuits. 16. The sensor assembly of claim 1, comprising an adapter cable connected to one or more signal transmission structures of the sensor assembly. 17. The sensor assembly of claim 1, wherein the loop structure biases an emitter and a detector toward one another. 18. A method of applying a sensor, comprising: applying force to a sensor body comprising a loop structure portion of an overmolded skeletal frame, wherein the applied force squeezes together opposing sides of the loop structure such that the sensor body is distorted; and situating the sensor body on a digit of a patient while the force is applied to the sensor body. 19. The method of claim 18, comprising: ceasing to apply force to the sensor body once the sensor body is situated on the digit.
