Abstract
An apparatus, system and method provide data indicative of cardio-respiratory state of a patient. Two or more cardio-respiratory parameters of the patient are measured, and optionally monitored over time, the two or more cardio-respiratory parameters being different one from the other and being measured at a same anatomical part of said patient.

77. Apparatus for providing data indicative of cardio-respiratory state of a patient, the apparatus comprising at least two cardio-respiratory sensor modules for providing at least two cardio-respiratory parameters, including:
- —
first sensor module for measuring a first cardio-respiratory parameter of said patient, wherein said first cardio-respiratory parameter is capillary refill time (CRT); second sensor module for measuring a second cardio-respiratory parameter of said patient, different from said first cardio-respiratory parameter, wherein said second cardio-respiratory parameter is any one of blood oxygenation state, a peripheral perfusion parameter (PU) other than capillary refill time, blood pressure, pulse rate, systemic vascular resistance; wherein said apparatus is adapted for measuring said first cardio-respiratory parameter and said second cardio-respiratory parameter at a same anatomical part of said patient. - View Dependent Claims (78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104)

105. A method for providing data indicative of cardio-respiratory state of a patient comprising measuring at least two cardio-respiratory parameters of said patient, wherein one said cardio-respiratory parameter is capillary refill time (CRT) and wherein another said cardio-respiratory parameter is any one of blood oxygenation state, a perfusion parameter (PU) other than capillary refill time (CRT), blood pressure, pulse rate, systemic vascular resistance, herein said at least two cardio-respiratory parameters are different one from the other and are measured at a same anatomical part of said patient.
- 106. A sheath for use with a sensing device, wherein the sheath is adapted to be worn over a finger, said sheath comprising at least one window for allowing communication between an inside and an outside of the sheath, wherein the sheath is adapted for becoming unusable as a sheath after being removed from a finger.
