Abstract
According to various embodiments, a medical system and method for early detection of shock may include devices configured to provide information about multiple patient parameters. In certain embodiments, the system may receive input from a regional saturation sensor. Based on these inputs, the system may provide a diagnosis of shock and/or distinguish between various types of shock.
Claims27
A system comprising:
- input circuitry configured to receive a regional saturation signal from a regional saturation sensor and a blood pressure signal from blood pressure sensor;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- determine a regional saturation parameter of a patient based on the regional saturation signal;
- determine a blood pressure parameter of the patient based on the blood pressure signal;
- determine the patient is in shock;
- determine a treatment for the shock by at least comparing the regional saturation parameter to a first threshold and comparing the blood pressure parameter to a second threshold;
- and
- provide an output based on the determined treatment.
