The present disclosure relates to physiological monitoring. More specifically, this disclosure relates to systems, methods, and apparatuses for measuring physiological parameters from overlapping or proximate regions of tissue using a plurality of non-invasive physiological sensors.
Monitoring of blood glucose (blood sugar) concentration levels has long been critical to the treatment of diabetes in humans. Current blood glucose monitors involve a chemical reaction between blood serum and a test strip, requiring an invasive extraction of blood via a lancet or pinprick. Small handheld monitors have been developed to enable a patient to perform this procedure anywhere, at any time. But the inconvenience of this procedure—specifically the blood extraction and the use and disposition of test strips—has led to a low level of compliance. Such low compliance can lead to serious medical complications. While a non-invasive method of measuring glucose has long been sought, attempts to create such a device have universally failed due to the difficult nature of detecting small concentrations of glucose in the blood.

Overview
Many non-invasive techniques for determining blood glucose have significant shortcomings, such as low accuracy (for example, less accuracy than invasive home monitors) and insufficient specificity of glucose concentration measurement. Accordingly, there is a need for an improved method to non-invasively monitor glucose. Systems and methods disclosed herein address various challenges related to non-invasively determining a patient's blood glucose level by combing and/or correlating data from multiple non-invasive sensors. Each of the non-invasive sensors can interrogate the same or a similar tissue site of a patient. In this way, physiological parameters or other variables identified using one or more sensors can be utilized to improve data from one or more other sensors. Using these data collecting and/or combining techniques, a glucose concentration measurement can be obtained.
In many instances, a single non-invasive sensor may lack the functionality to obtain sufficient physiological information for an accurate determination of an analyte concentration, such as a glucose concentration measurement. As a result, many physiological monitoring techniques include estimations, such as those based on common assumptions, to compensate for the lack of known data. However, due to the sensitivity of analyte measurements, these estimations can result in inaccurate or unreliable determinations.
For example, Beer's Law (also known as the Beer-Lambert Law) relates the attenuation of light to properties of a material. In particular, Beer's law states that absorbance of a material is proportional to the concentrations of the attenuating species in the material sample. The relationship between these parameters is expressed in Equation 1 below:
A=ε*b*c (Equation 1)
where A is the absorbance of the material at a given wavelength of light, S is the molar absorptivity or extinction coefficient (L mol-1 cm-1), unique to each molecule and varying with wavelength, b is the length of the light path through the material (cm), and c is the concentration of an analyte of interest (mol L-1).
In many cases, the length of the light path through the material (sometimes referred to as the path length) is estimated. For example, a generic finger may be associated with a first estimated path length value, while a generic nose may be associated with a second path length value. However, every person has a unique tissue geometry, which can include, but is not limited to, unique skin structure or skin thickness. Furthermore, because tissue is not uniform throughout a person's body, even tissue sites that are close in proximity, such as two different measurements sites on a patient's finger, can have a different tissue geometry and/or optical profiles.
As noted above, a specific tissue geometry of a particular tissue site can affect the path length value, among other physiological parameters or variables. To this end, multiple noninvasive sensors can be configured to obtain physiological parameters from the same tissue site. It can be difficult for a caregiver to manually position multiple sensors to obtain data from the same tissue site. Thus, in some cases, a system or apparatus can include a frame or housing that supports each of the plurality of non-invasive sensors and orients the non-invasive sensors to obtain physiological data associated with the same tissue site. In some cases, two tissue sites are considered the same tissue site if one or more portions of the tissue sites overlap and/or one or more portions of the tissue sites are within a threshold distance of each other.
As another example, a non-invasive physiological sensor can be configured to obtain skin geometry data, which can be utilized to calculate a path length associated with a tissue site. In some such cases, the skin geometry data can be utilized to calibrate one or more sensors (for example, select a focal depth of a Raman spectrometer), which can result in more accurate analyte measurements, such as a blood glucose concentration measurement.
To aid in the correlation of data between the sensors, it can be desirable for each of the sensors to obtain data relating to the same tissue site. However, it can be difficult to position different sensors on the same tissue site without anything more than the caregiver's visual assessments. Similarly, it can be difficult to re-position the same sensor on the same tissue site after it has been removed from the patient. To solve these and other problems, tissue geometry information can be utilized to determine whether successive measurements have occurred in the same or a different location. Furthermore, in some cases, tissue geometry information can be utilized to guide the placement of one or more sensors to a particular tissue site.
An optical coherence tomography, or OCT, sensor can be utilized to obtain tissue geometry information. OCT is an optical imaging technique using light waves that produce high-resolution imagery of biological tissue. OCT creates its images by interferometrically scanning in depth a linear succession of spots, and measuring backscattered light at different depths in each successive spot. The OCT data can be processed to present an image of the linear cross section. OCT data can be processed to determine tissue geometry information, such as skin geometry. For example, the OCT data can provide data regarding a thickness of one or more skin layers, such as the epidermis, the dermo-epidermal junction, or the dermis.
In some cases, OCT data can be utilized to determine whether successive OCT measurements have occurred in the same or a different location (e.g., the same or a different tissue site). For example, each tissue site can relate to a specific optical profile and a particular tissue site can retain its specific optical profile over time. Furthermore, the specific optical profile of a particular tissue site can be different from the specific optical profile of some or all other tissue sites. In some cases, OCT data can be utilized to determine whether multiple OCT measurements have occurred in the same or a different location. In some cases, OCT data can be utilized to determine whether multiple non-OCT measurements have occurred in the same or a different location. For example, the position and/or orientation of an OCT sensor can be registered with the position and/or orientation of one or more other sensors, and successive OCT measurements can be utilized to determine whether a sensor has been placed in the same (or a different) location as a previously placed sensor.
A bio-impedance or tissue dielectric constant sensor can be utilized to obtain tissue geometry information. For example, bio-impedance or tissue dielectric constant data can provide information relating to one or more skin layers, a hydration of one or more skin layers, or a cellular structure of the tissue. In some cases, similar to as described above with respect to OCT data, bio-impedance or tissue dielectric constant data can be utilized to determine whether successive measurements have occurred in the same or a different location.
Raman spectroscopy has exhibited promise with respect to blood glucose detection, due to its capability to gain information about the molecular constitution non-invasively. For example, features such as peaks of the Raman spectra are considered the Raman “fingerprints” of analytes such as glucose. Accordingly, using an isolated or semi-isolated Raman signal, the system can identify physiological data, such as information regarding a patient's blood glucose level.
For various reasons, it has been challenging to isolate a pure Raman signal from a signal obtained from a Raman spectrometer. For example, emission of fluorescence in tissue often overwhelms any signal collected from the Raman spectrometer, thereby hiding Raman features. In addition, attenuation of the signal due to absorption can further affect prediction of analytes using the collected signal. Furthermore, varying tissue geometries at tissue sites increases the difficulty in selecting a focal depth of the Raman spectrometer that will optimize a resolution of the Raman signal. Systems, devices, and methods herein can include variety of noninvasive physiological sensors, such as any of those described in greater detail in International Pat. App. No. PCT/US2018/042148, filed Jul. 13, 2018, entitled “Medical Monitoring Device For Harmonizing Physiological Measurements,” which is hereby incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Systems and methods disclosed herein can address one or more of these or other challenges by providing a multi-sensor apparatus that can utilize multiple sensors to obtain physiological data from the same tissue site. For example, the present disclosure addresses various challenges related to positioning and/or orienting multiple sensors to obtain physiological data from the same tissue site. In some instances, physiological data associated with the same tissue site can facilitate calibration or harmonization between sensors, or improve the accuracy of one or more other sensors.
Patient Monitoring System
The plurality of sensors 104 can each be the same type of sensors, or one or more of the sensors 104 can be of a different type. For example, the plurality of sensors 104 can include, but are not limited to, an OCT sensor, a Raman spectrometry device, a pulse oximetry device, a bioimpedance sensor, a temperature sensor, an acoustic sensor, or a combination thereof.
As described herein, a particular tissue site can retain its specific optical profile over time, and that optical profile can be different from the optical profile of another tissue site. Accordingly, to aid in harmonizing data between the sensors 104, it can be advantageous for the sensors 104 to interrogate the same tissue site. Accordingly, two or more of the sensors 104 can be configured to obtain physiological measurements from the same tissue site 102. In some cases, two tissue sites can be considered the same tissue site if one or more portions of the tissue sites overlap with one another. In some cases, two tissue sites can be considered the same tissue site if one or more portions of the tissue sites touch or connect. In some cases, two tissue sites can be considered the same tissue site if one or more portions of the respective tissue sites satisfy a distance threshold. The distance threshold can vary across embodiments. For example, in some cases, a distance threshold can be satisfied if a first tissue site (e.g., corresponding to a first sensor) is less than 4, 8, 12, or 16 mm (+/−a few mm) from a second tissue site (e.g., corresponding to a second sensor). As another example, the distance threshold can be satisfied if the distance between two tissue sites is less than or equal to 30, 50, 70, or 90 mm. the distance threshold can be satisfied if the distance between two tissue sites is less than or equal to 1, 2.5, or 4 cm. In some cases, For example, two tissue sites can be considered the same tissue site if they include the same region of the patient's body (e.g., the same finger, thumb, thenar space, hand, wrist, forearm, nose, limb, head, ear, neck, upper body, or lower body). In some cases, one or more of the sensors 104 can be configured to obtain physiological measurements from the different tissue sites.
In some cases, one or more of the sensors 104 can be integrated into or coupled to an apparatus. In some cases, the apparatus, such as apparatus 200 of
The patient monitor 130 can be configured to communicate (non-limiting example: via sensor interface 110) with one or more of the plurality of sensors 104 to receive sensor data, control the sensors 104, or the like. The sensor data can be utilized by the patient monitor 130 (non-limiting example: the processor 120) to determine one or more physiological parameters, patient vitals, or concentrations of one or more analytes associated with a patient. For example, based at least in part on sensor data from one or more of the sensors 104, the patient monitor 130 can determine an amount of light absorbed, transmitted through, or reflected at a tissue site, path length (for example, a distance that light travels through the tissue), concentration of an analyte, bioimpedance, tissue dielectric constant, pulse rate (PR), pulse pressure variation (PPV), pleth variability index (PVI®), stroke volume (SV), stroke volume variation (SVV), peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2), mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), pulse pressure (PP), perfusion index (PI), total hemoglobin (SpHb®), carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO®), methemoglobin (SpMet®), oxygen content (SpOC®), or acoustic respiration rate (RRa®), among other parameters. In some aspects, the patient monitor 130 can derive or use one or more relationships (for instance, a set of linear equations) from two or more of the determined parameters. The patient monitor 130 can utilize the one or more relationships to determine the patient's blood glucose concentration, systemic vascular resistance (SVR), CO, or arterial blood pressure (BP), among other parameters.
In some cases, data from a single sensor 104 may not provide enough reliable information to determine certain physiological parameters. For example, a number of factors can affect an accuracy of sensor data including, but not limited to, patient movement, sensor placement, interference, the type of sensor being used, the expansion and contraction of the patient's vascular system, assumptions made during calculations, skin temperature, pressure, or the like. In addition or alternatively, the determination of some physiological parameters (for example, glucose concentration) may require more information than a single sensor can provide. To solve this or other problems, the patient monitor 130 (or one or more of the sensors) can harmonize or compare data from two or more sensors 104, which can allow for a determination of more accurate or reliable data, or can allow for a determination of one or more additional physiological parameters, such as blood glucose concentration.
The patient monitor 130 can wirelessly, or using wires, receive a signal from one or more of the plurality of sensors 104. The received signal may take various forms, such as a voltage, a current, or charge. An operational amplifier (op-amp) of the patient monitor 130 can increase the amplitude, as well as transform the signal, such as from a current to a voltage. An anti-aliasing filter (AAF) of the patient monitor 130 can then process of the output signal from the op-amp to restrict a bandwidth of the output signal from the op-amp to approximately or completely satisfy the sampling theorem over a band of interest. An analog-to-digital convertor (ADC) of the patient monitor 130 can convert the output signal from the AAF from analog to digital. The output signal from the ADC can then be sampled by a processor 120 of the patient monitor 130 at a relatively high speed. The result of the sampling can next be down-sampled before waveform analysis may be performed.
Multi-Sensor Apparatus
A multi-sensor apparatus can include a plurality of non-invasive physiological sensors and can position and/or orient the sensors such that each of the sensors can obtain measurements from the same tissue site (sometimes referred to as a measurement site). In this way, each of the sensors obtain measurements corresponding to tissue having the same or similar properties, such as the same or similar optical profile, the same or similar tissue geometry, the same or similar analyte concentration, or the like. Sensor data from one or more of the sensors can be combined, correlated, or utilized to improve, calibrate, or corroborate data and/or calculations from or related to another sensor. Sensor data from one or more sensors can be combined and/or harmonized to determine or estimate a physiological parameter, such as blood glucose concentration.
The sensor head 210 can include a frame 220 (sometimes referred to as a housing) and a tissue interaction section 230. The frame 220 can support one or more of sensors 104. For example, the frame 220 can be configured to receive, couple to, or integrate with one or more of the sensors 104. In some cases, the frame 220 includes or defines one or more cavities of a size and shape capable of accepting one or more of the sensors 104. In some cases, some or all of the sensors 104 are positioned and/or oriented on or within the frame 220 such that the sensors 104 are positioned and/or oriented on or within the frame 220 such that the sensors 104 are positioned and/or oriented on or within the frame 220 such that the sensors 104 can, in use, obtain measurements from the same, or essentially the same, tissue site. For example, as illustrated, each of the sensors 104 can be oriented within the frame 220 such that the sensors 104 point or are directed towards the tissue site 102.
The tissue interaction section 230 can include one or more openings through which the sensors 104 can emit light, receive lights, obtain measurements, etc. As described in more detail herein, the openings in the tissue interaction section 230 through which the sensors 104 emit light, receive lights, obtain measurements, etc. can be referred to a sensing region. The size, number, and location of the sensing regions in the tissue interaction section 230 can vary across embodiments. For instance, in the illustrated example of in
The tissue interaction section 230 can be a centralized location at which the sensors 104 obtain measurements. In some such cases, the tissue interaction section 230 can encompass or include each of the sensing regions of the sensors 104. In this way, the sensors 104 can be oriented to obtain measurements from the same tissue site. In some cases, tissue sites can be considered the same tissue site if one or more portions of the tissue sites overlap with one another, if one or more portions of the tissue sites touch or connect, or if the tissue sites reside on the same region of the patient's body. As another example, in some cases, tissue sites can be considered the same tissue site if a distance between the tissue sites satisfies a distance threshold. For example, a distance threshold between sensing regions of two sensors can be satisfied if the sensing regions are less 4, 8, 12, or 16 mm (+/−a few mm) away from each other. As another example, the distance threshold between sensing regions of two sensors can be satisfied if the sensing regions are less than 30, 50, 70, or 90 mm (+/−a few mm) away from each other. As another example, the distance threshold between sensing regions of two sensors can be satisfied if the sensing regions are less than 1, 2.5, or 4 cm (+/−a few cm) away from each other.
The shape of the lower surface 232 of the tissue interaction section 230 can vary across embodiments. For example, in some cases, the lower surface 232 can be relatively flat. As another example, in some cases, the lower surface 232 can include one or more curvatures or concavities. A curvature of the lower surface 232 can be of a similar curvature to that of the area of the measured tissue site. As an example, the tissue site may be a finger nail and the curvature of the lower surface 232 can follow the approximate curvature of the finger nail. In some examples, the curvature of the lower surface 232 can match a specific curvature of the tissue site of the user. For example, the lower surface 232 can be molded, formed, or otherwise shaped according to a shape of the tissue site. In some cases, the curvature or shape of the lower surface 232 can be generic to the approximate curvature of a tissue site of the user. For example, the lower surface 232 can be molded, formed, or otherwise shaped according to the approximate curvature of an adult human finger nail where the tissue site is a finger nail.
The shape of the tissue interaction section 230 and/or the bottom of the sensor head 210 can vary across embodiments. For example, as illustrated in
The size of the tissue interaction section 230 can vary across embodiments. In some cases, the tissue interaction section 230 can have a length, width, and/or diameter on the scale of a few millimeters, decimeters, or centimeters. For example, the tissue interaction section 230 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 5 mm and 30 mm or between 10 mm and 20 mm, such as about 12.7 mm (+/−a few mm). As another example, the tissue interaction section 230 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 0.5 cm and 5 cm or between 1 cm and 3 cm.
In use, the tissue interaction section 230 can be placed on or positioned proximate to a tissue site. For example, in some cases, the tissue interaction section 230 can be configured to contact the tissue site. As another example, in some cases, the tissue interaction section 230 can be configured to hover over the tissue site such that a gap exists between at least a portion of the tissue interaction section 230 and the tissue site.
The tissue interaction section 230 can be attached to the tissue site of a patient using a permanent or temporary adhesive, by permanent or temporary implantation, via a wearable device, or other suitable means of temporarily, semi-permanently, or permanently securing a component to a tissue site. In some examples, the tissue interaction section 230 may be secured to a tissue site of a patient via a semi-permanent adhesive capable of securing the attachment component for a day or more. For example, the tissue interaction section 230 may be secured to a tissue site with a medical adhesive, glue, tape, or other means of adhering components to a tissue site.
The size and/or shape of the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can vary across embodiments. For example, in some implementations, the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can be sized to fit in the palm of a user's hand or is otherwise a handheld apparatus. In some cases, it can be desired for the multi-sensor apparatus 200, or at least the sensor head 210, to be relatively small such that the measurement site is also relatively small, such as less than 5, 10, 15, or 20 millimeters in diameter. However, the size of the measurement site can vary across embodiments and can be based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, a number of sensors integrated into the multi-sensor apparatus 200.
In some cases, the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can be compatible with different sensor heads. For example, the different sensors heads can include various shapes and/or sizes, and a particular sensor head can be configured for use with a particular tissue site. That is, in some cases, a particular sensor head may be configured for use with a finger, while another sensor head may be configured for use with a toe, an ear, a forearm, or the like.
The sensor head 210 can be made of plastic or other lightweight material so as to reduce weight and/or cost. In some examples, the sensor head 210 can include brackets for securing components, such as sensors 104, to the frame 220.
In some implementations, the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can optionally include a battery (not shown). The battery can include various types of batteries, such as AA or AAA batteries. The battery can be configured to provide power to multi-sensor apparatus 200, such as to one or more of the sensors 104.
Assembly of a Multi-Sensor Apparatus
Pulse Oximetry Device
The multi-sensor apparatus 200 can include one or more components for pulse oximetry, such as one or more light sources for emitting light of one or more of a variety of wavelengths and one or more detectors for detecting the light after attenuation by tissue of a patient. The detected signal(s) can be communicated to a patient monitor 130, where the patient monitor 130 can remove noise, preprocesses the signal(s), and/or determine one or more physiological parameters associated with the patient.
In the illustrated example exploded views of the multi-sensor apparatus 200 of
In some cases, the multi-LED fibers 226 or a fiber bundle 222 can be coupled to the sensor head 210. The sensor head 210 can orient or position the multi-LED fibers 226 or the fiber bundle 222. In use, the surface 212 of the sensor head 210 can be positioned on or proximate to a desired measurement site (for example, a portion of the patient's skin) and the multi-LED fibers 226 or the fiber bundle 222 can be utilized to obtain measurements from the measurement site on which the surface 212 is placed. It is understood that fewer, additional, or different light sources with fewer, additional, or different wavelengths can be utilized.
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
The multi-sensor apparatus 200 can include one or more components for OCT. OCT is an optical imaging technique using light waves that produce high-resolution imagery of tissue. OCT creates its images by focusing a beam of light into a medium and interferometrically scanning the depth of a linear succession of spots and measuring the absorption and/or the scattering of the light at different depths in each successive spot. In some cases, the data can be processed to present an image of the linear cross section of the medium scanned.
In the illustrated example exploded views of the multi-sensor apparatus 200 of
The light source 416 can output a beam of light having a broad spectrum of wavelengths. In some cases, the beam of light can be collimated and pass a beam splitter such that a portion of the beam of light is directed towards the tissue and a portion of the beam of light is directed toward a reference arm, such as mirror 422. The light can be either polarized or non-polarized. In some cases, a polarizer located on one edge of a beam splitter can polarize the light linearly, elliptically, or circularly, as desired. As a non-limiting example, the wavelength can be centered at, for example, 1310 nm with a 50 nm bandwidth. In other cases, the wavelength can be centered at 1060 nm with a 70 nm bandwidth. Still, in other cases, the light source can be selected to have a center wavelength anywhere between 400 nm and 1700 nm with a bandwidth of up to 150 nm. It is understood that different light sources with different bandwidths can be chosen to optimize penetration depth into the tissue and optimize the depth resolution of sensitivity to skin structures.
The mirror 422 can be translated or moved to raster scan a depth image of the tissue. In some cases, the mirror 422 can be translated or moved to fine-tune OCT measurements. In addition or alternatively, an angle of the mirror 422, relative to one or more axes, can be adjusted. For example, multi-sensor apparatus 200 can be configured to move or shift the mirror 422, such as by means of a stepper motor, a piezo-electric actuator, or the like.
The reflected light from the tissue can be collected using a converging lens, such as lens 430 (
Bioelectrical Impedance
The multi-sensor apparatus 200 can include one or more components for bioelectrical impedance. Bioelectrical impedance can be characterized as the principle that tissues and/or fluids of a patient have different impedances, that is, opposition to the flow of the electric current, which in turn may be dependent on variables such as water and electrolyte content, to name a few. Analysis of bioelectrical impedance can be performed to examine electrical, capacitive, or resistive characteristics of tissue to provide information on a noninvasive basis, such as tissue geometry.

Raman Spectroscopy
The multi-sensor apparatus 200 can include one or more components for Raman spectroscopy. As illustrated in the example exploded views of the multi-sensor apparatus 200 of
The components for Raman spectroscopy can include a light source. In some cases, the light source includes or produces a light, such as a laser beam. The characteristics of the light can vary across embodiments. For example, the light can have a tight bandwidth and/or stable spectrum. As another example, in some cases, the light can be centered between 600 nanometers and 900 nanometers, between 750 nanometers and 850 nanometers, centered at 785 nanometers, centered at 830 nanometers, or the like. Furthermore, the wavelength of the light can vary across embodiments. For example, in some cases, the light can have any wavelength(s) of a range of wavelengths varying from visible to NIR spectrum. In some cases, the light can be directed to the tissue by means of a dichroic mirror, focusing lens, and/or an optical window contacting the patient tissue. In some cases, the components for Raman spectroscopy are selected to avoid issues such as, but not limited to, reflections, fluorescence or scattering. In some cases, an optical window can be manufactured from quartz glass, coated with anti-reflecting material. It will be noted, however, that the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can include fewer, additional, or different components for Raman spectroscopy.
The Raman effect is a light-scattering phenomenon that can provide insight as to one or more characteristics of an analyte in a sample. When light irradiates a tissue, a fraction of the light is scattered, meaning it emerges in directions other than that of the incident (incoming) beam. Most of this scattered light (generally referred to as Rayleigh scattering) emerges at the original frequency (f0) and wavelength of the incident beam. A small portion of the scattered light, however, emerges at some shifted frequency (fs) that is different from, and usually lower than, the original frequency (f0) and has wavelengths different from that of the incident light. Stokes shifted Raman can be at relatively longer wavelengths, and anti-stokes Raman can be at relatively shorter wavelengths. The process leading to this small portion of the scattered light is termed the Raman effect or Raman scattering.
Raman scattering can occur with a change in vibrational or rotational energy of a molecule. Accordingly, the Raman spectra can contain information about the specific chemical substance in the irradiated tissue. For example, Raman scattering yields a set of characteristic peaks in a spectrum, which is a “fingerprint” of a specific chemical substance. Raman spectroscopy has exhibited promise with respect to blood glucose detection, as well as the determination of other physiological data. Furthermore, Raman spectroscopy can by utilized with one or more other sensors to enhance or improve physiological data measurements or determinations. For example, data acquired from one or more sensors can be utilized to remove or reduce an effect of the fluorescence, or tissue absorption, refraction, scattering, and/or reflection.
Multi-Sensor Apparatus
As described herein, each of the sensors 104 of a multi-sensor apparatus 200 can be oriented or positioned to obtain measurements associated with a sensing region location with the perimeter of the sensor head 210.
Coupling Agent

The sensor head 210 can be various shapes depending on the embodiment. For example, as illustrated in
Portions of the lower surface 232 of the sensor head 210 can be partitioned into sensing areas of the plurality of non-invasive physiological sensors.

As an example, the bio-impedance sensing areas 610 can each have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 5 mm and 30 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 10 mm and 20 mm (+/−a few mm). As another example, the Raman sensing area 612 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 1 mm and 10 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 2 mm and 4 mm (+/−a few mm), such as 2.25 mm. As another example, the OCT sensing area 614 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 1 mm and 10 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 2 mm and 4 mm (+/−a few mm), such as 2.5 mm. As another example, the sensing area 616 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 1 mm and 10 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 2 mm and 4 mm (+/−a few mm). As another example, the temperature sensing areas 620 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 1 mm and 5 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 3 mm and 4 mm (+/−a few mm). In some cases, the temperature sensing areas 620 are 3.5 mm by 0.4 mm (+/−a few 0.1 mm). As another example, the sensing areas 618 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 0.2 mm and 10 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 1 mm and 4 mm (+/−a few mm). As described above, the multi-LED fibers 226 can include one or more visible or NIR emitters and one or more detectors. In some cases, the emitters can be 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 mm (+/−a few mm) from a detector. As another example, the coupling agent sensing areas 622 can have a length, width, and/or diameter of between 5 mm and 30 mm (+/−a few mm) or between 10 mm and 20 mm (+/−a few mm).
By enabling each of the plurality of sensors to obtain measurements from essentially the same, overlapping, or proximate regions of tissue, the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can advantageously facilitate the integration, correlation, and/or harmonization of sensor data received from the plurality of sensors. Furthermore, the multi-sensor apparatus 200 can enable a determination, or a more accurate estimate, of one or more physiological parameters, such as those physiological parameters that are not readily determinable from sensor data from a single physiological sensor.
