First Claim
Patent Images
1. A physiological parameter system comprising:
- a first parameter input responsive to a first physiological sensor;
a second parameter input responsive to a second physiological sensor;
a plurality of predetermined limits for said parameters; and
a processor adapted to combine said parameters and said limits so as to generate an alarm output.

Abstract
A physiological parameter system has one or more parameter inputs responsive to one or more physiological sensors. The physiological parameter system may also have quality indicators relating to confidence in the parameter inputs. A processor is adapted to combine the parameter inputs, quality indicators and predetermined limits for the parameters inputs and quality indicators so as to generate alarm outputs or control outputs or both.
