Abstract: An electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring system configured to determine an index that comprises a set of indicators, where each indicator is indicative of a level of signal quality in an ECG lead. Further, the ECG monitoring system assigns a first indicator from the set of indicators to a first ECG lead signal and communicates the first indicator to a user.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a subject can include acquiring data from the subject, and dynamically adjusting an alarm limit based on the data. The method can also comprise determining a first value that is typical for the subject for the characteristic being monitored, determining a second value for the characteristic being monitored, and generating a comparison based on the two values. The method could also comprise setting a threshold for a characteristic being monitored, and decreasing the alarm limit if the data crosses the threshold. The method could also include setting an extremity limit. The following methods can be applied to the monitoring of a healthcare patient, or other subjects of interest. Also, the values used in the monitoring of the subject can be configured to be transferable from one monitor to another.

Abstract: A system for selecting physiological data from a plurality of physiological data sources includes first and second physiological data sources and a selection algorithm. The first physiological data source is configured to provide first physiological data. The first physiological data includes a first measurement of a physiological trait. The second physiological data source is configured to provide second physiological data. The second physiological data includes a second measurement of the physiological trait. The first and second measurements are based on different physiological characteristics. The selection algorithm is configured to receive the first and second physiological data and to select one of the first and second measurements as the output data for the physiological trait based on at least one of the first physiological data and the second physiological data.
