Optical patient monitor
An optical based patient monitoring system employing an optical sensor and providing an indication of an optical change which does not correlate to a change in a physiological blood parameter and based on that indication, providing a care provider an indication of a condition of a patient. The optical based patient monitoring system providing the indication of the patient condition in relation to a patient using an IV setup.
1. A method of determining a physiological parameter data through a change in measurement site, the method comprising:
obtaining first signal data from a sensor at a first measurement site of a patient during a first time period;
determining a physiological parameter during the first time period based on the first signal data;
detecting a change in measurement site of the sensor from the first measurement site to a second measurement site of the patient based on additional signal data obtained from the sensor;
obtaining second signal data from the second measurement site of the patient during a second time period after the first time period and after detecting the change in measurement site of the sensor;
determining an offset based on a first magnitude of a first portion of the first signal data obtained at the first measurement site and a second magnitude of a second portion of the second signal data obtained at the second measurement site;
correcting the second signal data based on the determined offset, wherein the correcting comprises shifting the second signal data based on the determined offset; and
determining the physiological parameter during the second time period based on the corrected second signal data.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the physiological parameter comprises a met-hemoglobin measurement.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the physiological parameter comprises a hemoglobin measurement.
