The device contains two commercial photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors that operate at two different points of the finger, which allows for simultaneous calculations of pulse wave velocity while measuring blood oxygen saturation, body temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate. This amazing new technology is not only helpful for those who need continuous monitoring, but also for those who have severe "white coat syndrome". For some just hearing the word blood pressure cuff can spike their anxiety, thus increasing the their pulse rate and blood pressure readings. This new, very non-invasive technique is much more comfortable and less frightening to those that suffer with these particular anxiety issues. Not only does it help a person with anxiety, but it helps with physical comfort as well. No longer having to inflate a blood pressure cuff on a persons arm is beneficial for comfort as well as those that have sensitivities or complications when compressing the arteries needed to achieve the reading from a blood pressure cuff. ]]> 2022-01-24 18:33:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009519449 mtaylor447 https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009552456 1. Less invasive
2. More comfortable for patient 
3. Reduces "white coat syndrome" associated increase in BP
4. Multiple vital signs monitored at once
5. Less time to get results
6. Will not damage arteries due to excessive inflation of cuff
7. Wireless transmission of data 
8. Easier for continuous monitoring and reviewing vital sign data trends]]> 2022-01-24 18:47:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009552456 mtaylor447 https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009574578 1. More expensive
2. Not as user friendly for non-tech savvy personnel 
3. Possible discrepancies in readings due to excessive movement and/or technical issues
4. As with a pulse oximeter, there could be issues with accurate readings due to patient circulation, artificial nails/nail polish or deformed fingers/nails
5. Would require more maintenance due to the technology requirements
6. Current testing on volunteers show 90% accuracy with systolic BP, but only 63% accuracy in diastolic BP reading ]]> 2022-01-24 18:57:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009574578 mtaylor447 https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009600973 2022-01-24 19:09:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009600973 mtaylor447 https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009801575 I definitely think this new innovation has the potential to benefit health care on a large scale. With the right technology, education and the repair of any glitches or potential issues, this could greatly improve how we obtain vital signs. This would be a great addition to not only the clinical setting, but in-home care as well. A patient at home would have more independence and autonomy in their own health care with a device that is very easy to use. There are far more pros than cons and I think that with even more research and testing most of the cons could be resolved. ]]> 2022-01-24 20:54:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009801575 mtaylor447 https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009902509 The first four of my strengths relator, connectedness, empathy and individualization focus in the area of "relationship building". Being a relator makes me enjoy working with others to achieve a goal, connectedness is where I find my faith and it helps me to look at the bigger picture, empathy allows me to have a sense of what others are going through, and individualization helps me appreciate the differences in others and how we can all work together. My last strength is being strategic, so I often use strategic thinking to help me through a process and/or issue, especially ones that might be unexpected more complicated to solve. ]]> 2022-01-24 22:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009902509 mtaylor447 https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009904136 For my team I chose Angelica- Analytical, Faith- Futuristic, Matthew-Maximizer, Rachel-Restorative and William-Woo. 
*Angelica's strength in being analytical (strategic thinking) will help the team to analyze all the factors that affect the situation.
*Faith being futuristic (strategic thinking), would benefit our team because her strength would help us to be inspired by the future possibilities and in health care we are always geared toward the future and how we can better it.
*Matthew having the strength of a maximizer (influencing), would help the team be successful together as a whole and build on what is already good and make it great.
*Rachel being restorative (executing), will help the team to figure out any problems or issues with the device and help get it resolved efficiently.
*William has the strength of woo (influencing), which I feel is very important when there is a new innovation in technology that no one has heard of before. This strength can help break the ice and form connections with people so that when trialing this new device there is an ease in transition and communication. ]]> 2022-01-24 22:17:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mtaylor447/zqhitl42fiv19xbl/wish/2009904136
