Patent ID: 11510624

Abstract:
A method of determining one or more vital sign parameters by a wireless vital-sign measurement device comprises: measuring motion information of a user wearing the wireless measurement device, the measurement device being in the idle mode in which at least one opto-electronic sensor in the measurement device is deactivated; switching the measurement device in an active mode if the motion information is below a predetermined threshold, wherein in the active mode the at least one opto-electronic sensor is activated; during a predetermined measuring period, exposing part of a skin tissue of the user to light and measuring one or more optical response signals associated with the exposed skin tissue and the motion sensor measuring motion information associated with movements of the user; and, selecting or rejecting one or more pulses in the one or more optical response signals on the basis of the motion information measured during the measuring period and determining one or more vital sign parameters on the basis of the one or more selected pulses.
