Multimodal Pulse Oximeter: Target Product Profile

This Target Product Profile (TPP) outlines the specifications for a multimodal pulse oximeter - a noninvasive device designed to measure oxygen saturation, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and additional clinical parameters such as temperature, hemoglobin, and blood pressure.

The TPP includes detailed guidance on product use, performance characteristics, design considerations, cost expectations, and channels to market. It also incorporates feedback from a global consensus survey, as well as insights from discussions with manufacturers and national stakeholders in Kenya, Senegal, and Tanzania.
