Abstract
The present disclosure describes embodiments of a patient monitoring system and methods that include the measure and display of hemoglobin statistics. In an embodiment, total hemoglobin trending is displayed over a period of time. Statistics can include frequency domain analysis, which may be unique for each patient monitored. The total hemoglobin trending and/or statistics can further be used to help control the treatment of a patient, such as being used to control IV administration.

2. A method of controlling a treatment unit, the method comprising:
-
controlling one or more light emitters configured to transmit optical radiation towards a tissue site of a patient; receiving attenuated optical radiation from the tissue site of the patient corresponding to the transmitted optical radiation; determining a first plurality of hemoglobin measurements from the received attenuated optical radiation; applying pattern detection rules on the determined first plurality of hemoglobin measurements; and transmitting a control signal to a treatment unit based on an output of the applied pattern detection rules on the determined first plurality of hemoglobin measurements. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A system for controlling a treatment unit, the system comprising:
-
one or more light emitters configured to transmit optical radiation towards a tissue site of a patient; one or more detectors configured to detect attenuated optical radiation from the tissue site of the patient corresponding to the transmitted optical radiation; and a patient monitor comprising one or more hardware processors configured to; determine a first plurality of hemoglobin measurements from the detected attenuated optical radiation; apply pattern detection rules on the determined first plurality of hemoglobin measurements; and transmit a control signal to a treatment unit based on an output of the applied pattern detection rules on the determined first plurality of hemoglobin measurements. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
