1. A clip sensor device for optical measuring at least one vital sign of a subject, the clip sensor device comprising:

  • a internal supporting frame configured to be folded into a desired orientation, and having an upper surface, an under surface, a right hand end, and a left hand end;

    a measuring probe mounted on the upper surface of the internal supporting frame and comprising a transmitter configured for generating an optical signal and emitting the optical signal outwardly away from the upper surface of the internal supporting frame towards a portion of blood perfused body tissue of the subject, and a receiver configured for receiving light originated from the portion of blood perfused body tissue and generating a photo current signal including a time response of the blood perfused body tissue to the applied optical signal, the time response is indicative of said at least one vital sign of the subject;

    a pressing member mounted on the upper surface of the internal supporting frame, said pressing member comprising at least one spring element configured to provide a predetermined pressure on the portion of the blood perfused body tissue due to the deformation of the spring element when said portion of blood perfused body tissue is applied against the pressing member.
