1. A wireless system monitoring a subject comprising:
- a plurality of peripheral electronic devices each having a sensor and a wireless communication system;
a hub having a wireless communication system, the hub in wireless communication with the peripheral electronic devices;
a processor receives data from each of the sensors through the hub, and establishes an association confidence level for each peripheral electronic device based upon at least one association criteria for the data from each of the sensors, the association confidence level for each peripheral electronic device being indicative of the likelihood that a peripheral electronic device of the plurality is associated to the monitored subject; and
a plurality of indicators, each indicator of the plurality configured to communicate the association confidence level for a peripheral electronic device.

Abstract
Wireless systems and methods include a plurality of peripheral electronic devices each having a wireless communication system. A processor is configured to establish an association confidence level indicative of a likelihood that a peripheral electronic device is associated to a monitored subject for each peripheral electronic device based on association criteria. Indicators are configured to communicate the association the association confidence level.

15. A method of workflow management in a wireless patient monitoring system, the method comprising:
-
providing a plurality of peripheral electronic devices, each comprising a sensor configured to acquire physiological data from a patient and a communication system; registering, at a processor, each of the plurality of peripheral electronic devices to a monitored patient; receiving physiological data acquired by each of the peripheral electronic devices at the processor; applying at least one association criteria to the physiological data to derive association criteria values; determining an association confidence level for each of the peripheral electronic devices based at least in part upon the association criteria values; producing a perceptible indication of the determined association confidence levels. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
