Abstract
An oximeter sensory assembly (40) includes a thin elongated flexible sheet-like strip (42) having an integral end portion (44) flexibly wrapping at least partially around a human body part (26), a plurality of electrical conductors (46-50) on the strip, and light emitting and receiving electrical components (28a, 30a) mounted on the strip on the end portion and electrically connected to the conductors. Flexible conductive encompassing shielding layers (62, 66) are also provided, together with outer insulating layers (61, 67). Connection adapter structure (94) is also provided.
