SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING VITAL SIGNS
First Claim
1. A portable wearable computing device configured to continuously obtain data indicative of a patient'"'"'s vital signs, the portable wearable computing device comprising:
- a temperature sensor configured to obtain data indicative of body temperature of the patient;
a blood oxygen saturation sensor configured to obtain data indicative of amount of oxygen present in the patient'"'"'s blood;
an arterial waveform sensor configured to obtain data indicative of an arterial waveform produced by the patient'"'"'s artery; and
a processor coupled to the temperature sensor, the blood oxygen sensor, and the blood pressure sensor, and configured to receive the obtained data indicative of the patient'"'"'s vital signs.
