1. A patient monitoring system comprising:
- one or more wireless sensing devices, each wireless sensing device configured to record physiological data from a patient to measure a physiological parameter of the patient;
one or more processors;
an activity analysis module executable on one or more of the processors to select an activity class from a predefined set of activity classes based on an activity input;
a power management module executable on one or more of the processors to reduce power consumption of the one or more of the wireless sensing devices by;
identifying that the one or more of the wireless sensing devices is unreliable to measure the physiological parameter based on the activity class when the activity class indicates that the physiological data will be unreliable due to patient position or artifact caused by motion of the patient; and
operating the one or more identified unreliable wireless sensing devices in a low power mode.

Abstract
A patient monitoring system includes one or more wireless sensing devices configured to record physiological data from a patient and one or more processors. An activity analysis module is executable on one or more of the processors to select an activity class from a predefined set of activity classes based on an activity input. A power management module is executable on one or more of the processors to reduce power consumption of one or more of the wireless sensing devices by identifying that one or more of the wireless sensing devices is unreliable based on the activity class, and operating the one or more unreliable wireless sensing devices in a low power mode.

15. A method of monitoring a patient, the method comprising:
-
recording physiological data from a patient with each of at least two wireless sensing devices, wherein each wireless sensing device of the at least two wireless sensing devices measures a different type of physiological data to measure a different physiological parameter of the patient; receiving an activity input at a processor; selecting with the processor an activity class based on the activity input; identifying at least one wireless sensing device that is unreliable to measure the physiological parameter based on the activity class when the activity class indicates that the physiological data will be unreliable due to patient position or artifact caused by motion of the patient; and changing operation of the identified unreliable wireless sensing devices into a low power mode. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
