<p>A blood parameter measurement device (14) especially useful for surgical procedures includes a compact housing (200) with at least one light source (212), light detector (214) and signal converter (438, 439, 440) contained within the housing. In use, the device (14) is releasably coupled to a cassette (12) that can be either used as an in-line cell in series with a cardiopulmonary by-pass circuit or in another passageway that shunts the cardiopulmonary by-pass circuit. Preferably, the housing (200) of the device (14) has a longitudinal axis that extends in a direction generally parallel to the direction of blood flowing through the cassette (12).</p> |
