| Abstrakt: | Significance: Tissue oxygenation is a parameter that allows for determining the health status of human beings. In diabetic patients, it is particularly important to evaluate this parameter as an indicator of microcirculatory problems in the extremities. Aim: We aim to obtain tissue oxygen saturation from diffuse reflectance measurements. Approach: A computational algorithm to automate the methodology was implemented with the aim of establishing a medical diagnosis technique that is non-invasive and easy to apply and requires a short evaluation time. Tissue oxygen saturation measurements were performed on a group of volunteers to whom a vascular occlusion was applied. It was observed that, by increasing the applied pressure to the arm of each volunteer, the tissue oxygen saturation progressively decreased. Results: The results indicate that the developed technique is an effective method for monitoring changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with some type of pathology in which tissue oxygenation is compromised. In addition, the expected behavior of tissue oxygen saturation during a vascular occlusion was obtained. Conclusions: A methodology to obtain tissue oxygen saturation from diffuse reflectance measurements was successfully developed. It meets the necessary characteristics to be considered a technique for obtaining StO 2 because it can be applied in vivo and non-invasively and does not require a high computational cost; thus it is fast and capable of providing an objective and quantifiable evaluation.
