1. A method for communicating a physiological waveform indicative of a physiological condition to a patient monitor, the method comprising:
- obtaining a sensor signal indicative of a physiological parameter;
calculating a first physiological measurement using a first processor;
communicating the physiological measurement to a second processor;
constructing an output signal indicative of the physiological measurement; and
communicating the output signal to the sensor input of a patient monitoring device for recalculation and display of the physiological measurement.

Abstract
The present disclosure includes a pulse oximeter attachment having an accessible memory. In one embodiment, the pulse oximeter attachment stores calibration data, such as, for example, calibration data associated with a type of a sensor, a calibration curve, or the like. The calibration data is used to calculate physiological parameters of pulsing blood.
