Abstract

The magneto-plethysmograph method is a combination of magnetic field and sensors used to detect changes in blood flow pulsation. However, to detect the magnetic properties of blood related to hemoglobin concentration, physical modeling and simulation are required. This approach involves designing simulations using magnetic field equations and magnetic susceptibility, where a permanent magnet is placed on the surface of blood vessels, and sensors based on giant magnetoresistance are placed at a distance r. The design originates from a simple approach involving the magnetization and detection of Fe atoms in hemoglobin. Parameters involved include the magnetic susceptibility of oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin, with an external magnetic field exceeding 1 Tesla. From the physical modeling and simulation, graphs are obtained depicting the influence of hemoglobin concentration on the number of Fe atoms and its magnetization. This enables the design of non-invasive hemoglobin measurement sensor devices. The uniqueness of this simple physical model and simulation lies in its ability to produce specially designed device models for measuring hemoglobin concentration. This differs from other research focusing on blood flow pulse measurements; the results of this study provide new insights into the benefits of simple physics equations that can be developed for medical diagnostic research and device development.
