  • Unobtrusive advisors for patient monitor
    Patent number: 9924908
    Abstract: A patient monitor system (10) includes a signal processor (30) which analyzes signals from physiological parameter sensors (20) to derive physiological data values, plots, and alarms. A display (12) displays physiological values and plots (42). An advisor engine, routine, or processor (34) is connected with the signal processor to analyze at least alarm occurrences, also in combination with user interactions, and provide directly actionable advice for reducing alarm frequency which is displayed unobtrusively on the display. The directly actionable advice includes specific actions or adjustments which are specific to a current patient, a present situation, or a present mode or setting of the patient monitor system. The unobtrusively displayed directly actionable advice is displayed without the use requesting it.

  • SENSOR APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING A VITAL SIGN OF A SUBJECT
    Publication number: 20160262641
    Abstract: A sensor apparatus for monitoring a vital sign of a subject comprises at least one sensor configured to measure a sensor signal representing a vital sign or being related to a vital sign, an evaluation unit configured to evaluate said sensor signal to determine, based on previously measured sensor signals, changes of the health condition of the subject and/or to identify an unsuccessful measurement or an unreliable sensor signal, and a control unit configured to control said at least one sensor to automatically change the measurement interval based the result of said evaluation.
