    This paper explores the feasibility of using wearable laser-induced graphene (LIG) sensors to estimate oxygen saturation (SpO2) as an alternative to traditional photoplethysmography (PPG) oximeters, particularly in mass casualty triage scenarios. Positioned on the chest, the LIG sensor continuously monitors respiratory signals in real-time. The study leverages deep neural network (DNN) trained on PPG signals to process LIG respiratory signals, revealing promising results. Key performance metrics include a mean squared error (MSE) of 0.152, a mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.13, a root mean square error (RMSE) of 1.23, and an R2 score of 0.68. This innovative approach, combining PPG and respiratory signals from graphene, offers a potential solution for 2D sensors in emergency situations, enhancing the monitoring and management of various medical conditions. However, further investigation is required to establish the clinical applications and correlations between these signals. This study marks a significant step toward advancing wearable sensor technology for critical health- care scenarios.

    The HeartPy Python toolkit for analysis of noisy signals from heart rate measurements is an excellent tool to use in conjunction with novel wearable sensors. Nevertheless, most of the work to date has focused on applying the toolkit to data measured with commercially available sensors. We demonstrate the application of the HeartPy functions to data obtained with a novel graphene-based heartbeat sensor. We produce the sensor by laser-inducing graphene on a flexible polyimide substrate. Both graphene on the polyimide substrate and graphene transferred onto a PDMS substrate show piezoresistive behavior that can be utilized to measure human heartbeat by registering median cubital vein motion during blood pumping. We process electrical resistance data from the graphene sensor using HeartPy and demonstrate extraction of several heartbeat parameters, in agreement with measurements taken with independent reference sensors. We compare the quality of the heartbeat signal from graphene on different substrates, demonstrating that in all cases the device yields results consistent with reference sensors. Our work is a first demonstration of successful application of HeartPy to analysis of data from a sensor in development.

    Wearable sensors are reaching maturity, at the same time as technologies for communicating physiological data and those for analyzing massive amounts of data. The combination of the three technologies invites for applications in mass screening of personal health through smart algorithm deployment on data from wearable patches. We propose and present an architecture for a wearable patch to be used in mass casualty emergency situations, or for hospital bedside monitoring. The proposed patch will contain multiple sensors of physiological parameters. We propose to create respiration and heartbeat sensors made of laser induced graphene. We show that graphene on flexible substrates can be utilized in conjunction with the Python heart rate analysis toolkit - HeartPy to reliably acquire physiological data from human subjects.
