Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus for detecting configuration for a patient worn sensor assembly are described. In one aspect a method includes receiving, by a computer system, sensor assembly data for a particular sensor assembly, accessing, by the computer system, sensor assembly identifier information defining a plurality of sensor assembly identifiers, where each sensor assembly identifier is associated with a respective sensor assembly, identifying, by the computer system and based on the sensor assembly data, a particular sensor assembly identifier for the particular sensor assembly, and determining, by the computer system, configuration information for the particular sensor assembly based on the particular sensor assembly identifier.
Claims8
A system for detecting a configuration for a patient worn sensor assembly, the system comprising:
- a sensor assembly including:
- an adapter including a configuration resistor;
- and
- a sensor device including:
- an internal reference resistor;
- an analog-to-digital (ADC) circuit to measure a measured voltage output from a resistive voltage divider defined by the configuration resistor and the internal reference resistor when a reference voltage is applied;
- a first communicator to generate sensor device communication data, the sensor device communication data includes a sensor assembly identifier;
- a storage to store mapping data, the mapping data including associated values between the measured voltage output and the sensor assembly identifier;
- and
- a controller operably coupled to the storage and configured or programmed to identify the sensor assembly based on the mapping data and the measured voltage output;
- and
- a patient monitoring device communicatively coupled to the sensor assembly via the first communicator of the sensor device, the patient monitoring device including a second communicator to receive the sensor device communication data, including the sensor assembly identifier, from the first communicator of the sensor device.
