1. A method of computing an index value indicative of a condition of a patient, said method comprising:
- receiving two or more measured patient parameters, wherein the measured patient parameters originate from one or more sensing devices;
characterizing a first measured patient parameter based on a comparison of the first measured patient parameter against a first reference value;
characterizing a second measured patient parameter based on a comparison of the second measured patient parameter against a second reference value; and
computing the index value based on values associated with each of the characterized first and second measured patient 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.
