Abstract:
Methods and systems are presented for determining whether a regional oximetry sensor is properly positioned on a subject. First and second metric values may be determined based on respective first and second light signals. The first and second metric values and a relationship between the first and second metrics are used to determine whether the sensor is properly positioned on the subject. The first and second metrics may form a pair of metrics, and whether the sensor is properly positioned on the subject may be determined based on whether the pair of metrics falls within a sensor-on region. In some embodiments, a plurality of metrics may be determined based on a plurality of received physiological signals. The plurality of metrics may be combined, using, for example, a neural network, to determine whether the regional oximetry sensor is properly positioned on a subject.

Claim (Index 3):
The system of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to determine that the regional oximetry sensor is properly positioned relative to the target site by at least comparing the first combination metric value to a first distribution threshold and comparing the second combination metric value to a second distribution threshold.
