Claim One:
1. A microprocessor system for evaluation of a patient, the system comprising: at least one monitor having at least one sensor for positioning adjacent said patient and at least one processor programmed to: produce a first timed waveform based on a first physiologic parameter of a patient, produce a second timed waveform based on a second physiologic parameter which is generally subordinate to said first physiologic parameter, so that said second physiologic parameter normally changes in response to changes in said first physiologic parameter, identify pathophysiologic divergence of at least one of said first and second physiologic parameters in relationship to the other of said physiologic parameters, the pathophysiologic divergence comprising a change that is both unexpected in the absence of organ dysfunction during clinical monitoring of the patient and pathologic, and output an indication of said divergence, wherein said second physiologic parameter comprises a measure of arterial oxygenation.
