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

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.
