1. A method for monitoring a subject, comprising:
- setting respective first and second thresholds that are different from one another;
sensing at least one parameter of the subject;
analyzing the sensed parameter to generate a score;
if the score is between the first and second thresholds, generating an alert that is indicative of a condition of the subject only after the subject awakes; and
if the score passes the second threshold, generating an immediate alert that is indicative of the subject'"'"'s condition.

Abstract
Apparatus and methods are provided for monitoring a subject, including setting respective first and second thresholds that are different from one another, sensing at least one parameter of the subject, and analyzing the parameter to generate a score. If the score is between the first and second thresholds, an alert that is indicative of a condition of the subject is generated only after the subject awakes. If the score passes the second threshold, an alert that is indicative of the subject'"'"'s condition is generated immediately. Other applications are also described.

2. Apparatus for monitoring a subject, comprising:
-
a sensor, adapted to sense at least one parameter of a subject; a user interface; and a control unit, adapted to; set respective first and second thresholds that are different from one another, analyze the sensed parameter to generate a score, if the score is between the first and second thresholds, drive the user interface to generate an alert that is indicative of a condition of the subject only after the subject awakes, and if the score passes the second threshold, drive the user interface to generate an immediate alert that is indicative of the subject'"'"'s condition. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)
