Patient monitoringPatient monitoring description/claimsThe Patent Description & Claims data below is from USPTO Patent Application 20090099424, Patient monitoring. Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims
The present invention relates to improvements in patient monitoring and directing treatment. In particular, the invention relates to apparatus and methods for determining the requirement for, and/or if required the nature or extent of, and/or for monitoring the response to, an intervention by a carer for a subject in order to improve the hydration level and/or hemodynamic status of the subject. The apparatus and methods are particularly useful during a period or periods of hemodynamic instability, such as during a surgical procedure for example. Hemodynamic monitoring is useful in the care of patients, for example in the intensive care unit (ICU) or during surgery. The ICU provides a place for monitoring and care of patients with potentially severe physiological instability requiring advanced artificial life support. Within this context, hemodynamic monitoring is used to identify hemodynamic instability and its cause and monitor the response to therapy. Medical technological advances have enabled monitoring, display, and assessment of many physiological variables (Pinsky M R and Payen D, Crit. Care 2005, 566-572), yet the utility of some aspects of hemodynamic monitoring is unproven. It is the commonly available technologies where clinical studies have demonstrated relevance in terms of improved patient outcome. Physiological measures available from commonly available monitoring devices are given in Table 1. Table 1. Hemodynamic Monitoring Defined Primary Hemodynamic Variables A. Non-Invasive Monitoring 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) Heart rate, dysrhythmnias, heart rate variability 2. Pulse Oximetry SpO2, heart rate 3. Arterial Pressure
