Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure include a sensor configured to store in memory indications of sensor use information and formulas or indications of formulas for determining the useful life of a sensor from the indications of sensor use information. A monitor connected to the sensor monitors sensor use and stores indications of the use on sensor memory. The monitor and/or sensor compute the useful life of the sensor from the indications of use and the formulas. When the useful life of the sensor is reached, an indication is given to replace the sensor.

Claim (Index 35):
A method of determining a useful life of a reusable noninvasive physiological sensor, the method comprising:\n receiving at least one sensor life function from a reusable noninvasive physiological sensor, wherein the at least one sensor life function indicates how to calculate the useful life of the reusable noninvasive physiological sensor, the at least one sensor life function assigning a first weighting value to a first indication of sensor use information and assigning a second weighting value to a second indication of sensor use information; updating the at least one sensor life function to assign a third weighting value to the first indication of sensor use information and to assign a fourth weighting value to the second indication of sensor use information, wherein the third weighting value is different from the first weighting value, wherein the fourth weighting value is different from the second weighting value; and calculating the useful life of the reusable noninvasive physiological sensor using at least the first indication of sensor use information, the second indication of sensor use information, the third weighting value, the fourth weighting value, and the updated at least one sensor life function.
