A system and method for identifying success of a physiological measurement

A computer-implemented method for providing feedback indicative of a suitability of data collected during a physiological measurement for analysis of a physiological process of a body of a patient, the method comprising executing on a processor:

• obtaining physiological data collected from the body of the patient at a plurality of different times during a physiological measurement, the physiological data resulting at least from the physiological process;
• determining many-valued quality scores for the physiological data collected at the plurality of different times;
• providing an indication that the physiological measurement was successful in response to determining that an accumulative amount of times, out of the plurality of different times, for which the determined many-valued quality score fulfilled a predetermined criterion exceeded a predetermined amount, wherein the indication includes at least one of:
• (a) a visual indication provided via a user interface of the system;
• (b) a sound indication provided via a speaker of the system;
• or (c) a vibration indication provided via a vibrating element of the system;
• and
• providing at least part of the physiological measurement to a diagnosing entity, so as to enable the diagnosing entity to diagnose the medical condition of the patient.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium for providing feedback indicative of a suitability of data collected during a physiological measurement for analysis of a physiological process of a body of a patient, comprising instructions stored thereon, that when executed on a processor, perform on the processor at a plurality of different times during a physiological measurement the steps of:

• obtaining physiological data collected from the body of the patient at a plurality of different times during a physiological measurement, the physiological data resulting at least from the physiological process;
• determining many-valued quality scores for the physiological data collected at the plurality of different times;
• providing an indication that the physiological measurement was successful in response to determining that an accumulative amount of times, out of the plurality of different times, for which the determined many-valued quality score fulfilled a predetermined criterion exceeded a predetermined amount, wherein the indication includes at least one of:
• (a) a visual indication provided via a user interface of the system;
• (b) a sound indication provided via a speaker of the system;
• or (c) a vibration indication provided via a vibrating element of the system;
• and
• providing at least part of the physiological measurement to a diagnosing entity, so as to enable the diagnosing entity to diagnose the medical condition of the patient.
