Abstract
A pulse oximetry sensor for use on pediatric patients comprised of a resilient foot wrap extending around the patient's foot, with an adjustable slide having slotted openings into which the ends of the foot wrap are inserted. The slide carries a plunger with a piercing member which can be pushed downward through the rubber to lock the slide in place making the foot wrap variable in size. The wrap has two resilient receptacles into which sensors are inserted, the receptacles being sized relative to the sensors so that the flexible receptacles stretch and securely hold the sensors in position.
