Abstract
There is provided a method of generating a pulmonary index value of a patient, which includes receiving two or more measured patient parameters, wherein at least one of the measured parameters originates from a pulmonary sensor; and computing the pulmonary index value based on the two or more measured patient parameters.
Claims24
An apparatus for generating an index value indicative of a condition of a patient, said apparatus comprising:
- a port adapted to receive two or more measured patient parameters, wherein the measured patient parameters originate from one or more sensing devices;
- and
- processing logic adapted to:
- (a) characterize a first measured patient parameter based on a comparison of the first measured patient parameter against a first reference value;
- (b) characterize a second measured patient parameter based on a comparison of the second measured patient parameter against a second reference value;
- and (c) computing the index value based on values associated with each of the characterized first and second measured parameters, wherein a weighting factor applied to the value associated with the second characterized measured parameter is influenced by the characterization of the first measured patient parameter.
