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.

Abstract: A pneumatic transfer system having a modular pneumatic shifting device. A teller conduit has a teller station and a customer conduit has a customer station. A housing having apertures connected to the teller conduit and the customer conduit has a teller gate and a customer gate intermittently obstructing the apertures. A differential pressure generating mechanism is connected to the housing. A plurality of sensors send signals to a programmable means when a carrier pass through the system actuating movement of the gates and operation of the differential pressure generating mechanism.

Abstract: A method and system of distinguishing physiological pulses as measured by pulmonary artery catheterization. The method includes positioning two measurement devices in blood vessels of a subject, one in a major systemic artery and one in the pulmonary artery, and measuring blood pressure in the blood vessel with the measuring device to generate a pressure waveform. A phase difference between the two pressure waveforms is determined and used to create a warning or to display the phase difference on a display. The system includes an analysis module that determines phase differences based on the inputs from two or more physiological sensing modules.
