1. A method for identifying and reporting a physiological event of an individual comprising:

  • associating at least two wearable physiological sensors with the body of said individual, said sensors comprising at least a pulse rate sensor and a heat flux sensor;

    continuously collecting sensor output signals from said at least two wearable physiological sensors for a period of time from said individual, while said individual is experiencing said physiological event;

    collecting physiological data while said individual is experiencing said physiological event and such physiological data is additional data related to said physiological event of said individual;

    using a processor to provide a mathematical operation defining the association of said additional data related to said physiological event of said individual with said sensor output signals;

    deriving values using said processor of said physiological event of said individual from said sensor output signals based on said association; and

    modifying said mathematical operation using said processor to form a modified mathematical operation based upon said derivation of said values of said physiological event of said individual, such that said derived values of said physiological event are predictive of said event.
