Abstract:
An apparatus for obtaining a physiologically controlled measurement at a living subject, comprising:a signal acquisition arrangement, adapted for interaction with a living subject, for continually acquiring a physiological signal from the living subject, said physiological signal having a current time curve associated therewith; a time-setting arrangement connected to said signal acquisition arrangement for allowing manual setting of at least two different points in time referenced to said current time curve for controlling a time sequence of a measurement to be subsequently implemented at said living subject; and a display connected to said signal acquisition arrangement and said time-setting arrangement for graphically displaying said current time curve of said physiological signal and for automatically determining and graphically displaying a time window between said at least two points in time in a temporal relationship to said current time curve of said physiological signal, said time window indicating a time span within which measurement should occur.
