Relationship Between Measurement Site and Motion Artifacts in Wearable Reflected Photoplethysmography
Abstract
Pulse rates obtained from wearable photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors are important for monitoring cardiovascular condition, especially during exercise. However, it is difficult to precisely count pulse rates during exercise because PPG is sensitive to body movement. The artifacts from body movement are caused by a change in the blood volume at the measurement site, in addition to pulsatile changes. Here, we investigated the influence of motion artifact with respect to light source and anatomical sites. In this study, we compared the signal from green-light PPG to that from infrared PPG at different anatomical sites. In these experiments, 11 subjects were asked to either assume a resting position or generate spontaneous motion artifact by jumping and swinging their arm. As a result, pulse rates obtained from green-light PPG showed a higher correlation with the ECG R-R interval as compared to those obtained with infrared. Additionally, the signal from the upper arm showed less artifact than did the peripheral one. Therefore, the green-light PPG may be useful for pulse rate monitoring.

Intensity-linked improvements are modest rather than decisive, but suggest that PPG systems may perform comparatively better when stroke volume and pulsatility increase.
“We therefore interpret intensity-linked improvements as modest rather than decisive, but they do suggest that PPG systems may perform comparatively better when stroke volume and pulsatility increase [2,29].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
