Abstract: A system, method and apparatus is disclosed, comprising a biomathetical model for optimizing cognitive performance in the face of sleep deprivation that integrates novel and nonobvious biomathematical models for quantifying performance impairment for both chronic sleep restriction and total sleep deprivation; the dose-dependent effects of caffeine on human vigilance; and the pheonotypical response of a particular user to caffeine dosing, chronic sleep restriction and total sleep deprivation in user-friendly software application which itself may be part of a networked system.

Abstract: A system is disclosed having a storage, a communications module for interacting with a medical measurement device, an analysis controller, and a test module that allows for the testing and evaluating of decision-support algorithms. A method for testing decision-support algorithms is disclosed having the steps of receiving into storage of a ruggedized, compact computer at least one decision-support algorithm; detecting with a communications module the initiation of a vital-sign monitoring session; receiving and storing vital-sign information into storage by the communications module; pushing the stored vital-sign information by an analysis controller to a test module running the stored at least one decision-support algorithm; and providing at least one output from the decision-support algorithm to at least one of a database and a display.
