21. A method for assessing a dynamic arterial pressure wave, comprising:
-
detecting the dynamic arterial pressure wave as a function of changing blood volume using a plethysmographic technique; assessing at least one characteristic of the dynamic arterial pressure wave; and providing at least one output for diagnostic and remedial purposes, wherein the at least one output represents the assessed at least one characteristic of the dynamic arterial pressure wave. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37)
