Abstract:
A low noise patient cable has a plurality of emitter wires configured to communicate a drive signal between a monitor and at least one emitter. A plurality of detector wires is also configured to communicate a physiological signal between a detector responsive to the emitter and the monitor. A polymer layer is disposed around, and adapted to conduct a triboelectric charge away from, the detector wires.
