Measuring physiological parameters at depth is an emergent challenge for athletic training, diver's safety and biomedical research. Recent advances in wearable sensor technology made this challenge affordable; however, its impact on breath-hold diving has never been comprehensively discussed.
We performed a systematic review of the literature in order to assess what types of sensors are available or suitable for human breath-hold diving, within the two-fold perspective of safety and athletic performance.
In the 52 studies identified, sensed physiological variables were: electrocardiogram, body temperature, blood pressure, peripheral oxygen saturation, interstitial glucose concentration, impedance cardiography, heart rate, body segment inertia and orientation.
Limits and potential of each technology are separately reviewed. Inertial sensor technology and transmission pulse oximetry could produce the greatest impact on breath-hold diving performances in the future.
在水下测量生理参数对于运动训练、潜水员安全和生物医学研究来说是一项新出现的挑战。可穿戴传感器技术的最新进展使应对这一挑战变得可行；然而，其对屏气潜水的影响从未得到全面讨论。
我们对文献进行了系统综述，以便从安全和运动表现这两个角度评估哪些类型的传感器适用于人类屏气潜水。
在确定的52项研究中，所感测的生理变量有：心电图、体温、血压、外周血氧饱和度、组织间葡萄糖浓度、阻抗心动图、心率、身体节段惯性和方向。
分别综述了每种技术的局限性和潜力。惯性传感器技术和透射式脉搏血氧饱和度测定法未来可能会对屏气潜水表现产生最大影响。
