103. An apparatus for generating an index value indicative of a condition of a patient, said apparatus comprising:
-
a port adapted to receive two or more measured patient parameters, wherein the measured patient parameters originate from one or more sensing devices; and processing logic adapted to;
(a) characterize a first measured patient parameter based on a comparison of the first measured patient parameter against a first reference value;
(b) characterize a second measured patient parameter based on a comparison of the second measured patient parameter against a second reference value; and
(c) computing the index value based on values associated with each of the characterized first and second measured parameters, wherein a weighting factor applied to the value associated with the second characterized measured parameter is influenced by the characterization of the first measured patient parameter. - View Dependent Claims (104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126)
