PERFUSION SHIFT MEASURING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18563455 titled 'PERFUSION SHIFT MEASURING

The abstract describes a system for monitoring a patient, including sensors, a processor, and memory storing executable instructions.

  • The system correlates perfusion indexes from two sensors and performs trend-based analysis of perfusion.
  • The first sensor is located at a central site, while the second sensor is at a distal site.
  • The processor processes signals from the sensors to analyze perfusion trends in the patient.

Potential Applications: - Monitoring patients in critical care settings - Assessing perfusion in surgical procedures - Tracking perfusion changes in chronic disease management

Problems Solved: - Enables real-time monitoring of perfusion in patients - Provides valuable data for clinical decision-making - Improves patient outcomes through early detection of perfusion issues

Benefits: - Enhanced patient safety and care - Timely intervention based on perfusion trends - More accurate assessment of patient status

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Patient Monitoring System for Enhanced Healthcare" This technology can be used in hospitals, clinics, and ambulatory care settings to improve patient monitoring and outcomes. It has implications for medical device companies, healthcare providers, and research institutions.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system improve patient outcomes through perfusion monitoring? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in different healthcare settings?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in patient monitoring technology, including research on perfusion monitoring and its impact on clinical practice.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system for monitoring a patient is described. The system includes a first sensor disposed at a central site, and adapted to provide a first signal; a second sensor disposed at a distal site, and adapted to provide a second signal; a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions. When executed by the processor, the instructions cause the processor to: correlate a first perfusion index based on the first signal from the first sensor and a second perfusion index based on the second signal from the second sensor, and determine a trend based analysis of perfusion based on the first signal and in the second signal.
