Abstract
The present disclosure describes embodiments of a patient monitoring system and methods that include the measure and display of hemoglobin statistics. In an embodiment, total hemoglobin trending is displayed over a period of time. Statistics can include frequency domain analysis, which may be unique for each patient monitored. The total hemoglobin trending and/or statistics can further be used to help control the treatment of a patient, such as being used to control IV administration.
Claims14
A transfusion system comprising:
- a physiological monitor connected with a fluid delivery system;
- a noninvasive sensor configured to emit energy into a measurement site of a patient and detect the energy attenuated by the patient measurement site;
- and
- one or more hardware processors configured to:
- determine a plurality of total hemoglobin measurements over a first time period based on the detected attenuated energy;
- determine a trend in the plurality of total hemoglobin measurements over the first time period;
- compare the trend with an expected limit of hemoglobin;
- and
- control the fluid delivery system based on the determined trend and the comparison.
6 more elements
An electronic transfusion method comprising:
- determining a plurality of total hemoglobin measurements over a first time period based on attenuated energy detected from a measurement site of a patient responsive to energy emitted by a noninvasive sensor into the measurement site;
- determining a trend in the plurality of total hemoglobin measurements over the first time period;
- comparing the trend with an expected limit of hemoglobin;
- and
- controlling a fluid delivery system based on the determined trend and the comparison.
