A physiological measurement system has a sensor that transmits optical radiation at a multiplicity of wavelengths other than or including the red and infrared wavelengths utilized in pulse oximeters. The system also has a processor that determines the relative concentrations of blood constituents other than or in addition to HbO2 and Hb, such as carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO), methemoglobin (MetHb), fractional oxygen saturation, total hemoglobin (Hbt) and blood glucose to name a few. Further, such a system may be combined with other physiological parameters such as noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP). There is a need to easily configure such a physiological measurement system from compatible components capable of measuring various physiological parameters.
FIGS. 5A-5B are block diagrams illustrating forward and backward sensor compatibility with various processors.
The processor 110 generates drive signals so as to activate the sensor emitters and inputs and processes the corresponding detector signal so as determine the relative concentrations of two or more blood constituents. The communications link 130 provides communications between the processor 110 and sensor 120 including transmitting the drive signals from the processor 110 to the sensor 120 and the detector signals from the sensor 120 to the processor 110. In one embodiment, the communications link 130 is a cable and corresponding sensor and processor connectors that provide a wired connection between the processor 110 and connector 120. In another embodiment, the communications link 130 provides a wireless connection between the processor 110 and connector 120. The wireless connection may utilize Bluetooth®, IEEE 802.11 or similar wireless technologies.
As shown in FIG. 5A, configurable physiological measurement systems 200 comprise a family of processors (P0, P1, P2) 210 including those capable of computing SpO2 510-530, HbCO 520-530 and MetHb 530. The systems 200 also comprise a family of sensors 220 (S0, S1, S2) including those capable of detecting SpO2 550-570, HbCO 560-570 and MetHb 570. Here, the lower numbered processors and sensors represent less capability, e.g. older generation processors and sensors or current generation, but less costly processors and sensors. Illustrated is forward sensor compatibility, i.e. less capable sensors are capable of running on more capable processors. For example, an SpO2 only sensor 550 is capable of working with a multiple parameter (SpO2, HbCO, MetHb) processor 530. Also illustrated is LCD functionality. A system 200 having a P2 processor 530 and a S0 sensor 550 is functional but only capable of measuring SpO2.
