Claim Text:
1. An apparatus for indicating a health-related condition of a subject, comprising: an analytical device for sampling a biological quantity as part of a measurement method, where the biological quantity is related to the health-related condition of the subject; an input interface for receiving a raw sequence of samples of the biological quantity from the analytical device; a processor for processing the raw sequence of samples to obtain a processed sequence, the processor comprising an interpolator for providing data on an interpolated sample for a missing sample of the biological quantity using one or more samples at a preceding time instant or one or more samples at a subsequent time instant to obtain an interpolated sequence representing samples of the raw sequence and the interpolated sample; a low-pass filter for filtering the processed sequence to obtain a filtered sequence, the filtered sequence having a useful variation and a reduced non-useful variation compared to the processed sequence before filtering, wherein the low-pass filter has a cut-off frequency; a cut-off frequency calculator being arranged to determine the cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter, by: an output interface for processing the filtered sequence or for processing an enhanced sequence derived from the filtered sequence and for outputting an indication of the health-related condition of the subject based on the filtered sequence or the enhanced sequence derived from the filtered sequence.
