PHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETER SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18584637 titled 'PHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETER SYSTEM

The abstract describes a physiological parameter system that utilizes parameter inputs from physiological sensors, along with quality indicators to determine confidence in the inputs. A processor combines these inputs, quality indicators, and predetermined limits to generate alarm outputs or control outputs.

  • Physiological parameter system with inputs from physiological sensors
  • Quality indicators to assess confidence in parameter inputs
  • Processor combines inputs, quality indicators, and limits to generate outputs
  • Outputs can be alarms or controls

Potential Applications: - Medical monitoring systems - Fitness trackers - Sleep monitoring devices

Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate and reliable physiological parameter measurements - Provides timely alerts for abnormal readings

Benefits: - Improved health monitoring - Enhanced user safety - Real-time feedback on physiological status

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Physiological Parameter Monitoring System for Healthcare and Wellness" This technology can be used in hospitals, clinics, fitness centers, and wearable device industries to enhance monitoring capabilities and improve patient outcomes.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system determine the quality of the parameter inputs? - The system evaluates the quality indicators associated with each input to assess its reliability. 2. What types of physiological parameters can be monitored using this system? - This system can monitor various parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and more.


Original Abstract Submitted

A physiological parameter system has one or more parameter inputs responsive to one or more physiological sensors. The physiological parameter system may also have quality indicators relating to confidence in the parameter inputs. A processor is adapted to combine the parameter inputs, quality indicators and predetermined limits for the parameters inputs and quality indicators so as to generate alarm outputs or control outputs or both.
