Abstract
Handheld medical diagnostic instrument that provides high time-resolution pulse waveforms associated with multiple parameters including blood pressure measurements, blood oxygen saturation levels, electrocardiograph (ECG) measurements, and temperature measurements. The device stores and analyzes the pulse waveforms simultaneously obtained from all tests, and thereby allows an unusually detailed view into the functioning of the user's cardiovascular heart-lung system. The device is designed for use by unskilled or semi-skilled users, thus enabling sophisticated cardiovascular measurements to be obtained in a home environment. Data from the device can be analyzed onboard, with local computerized devices, and/or with remote server based systems. The device or remote server may be configured to analyze this data according to various algorithms chosen by the physician to be most appropriate to that patient's particular medical condition (e.g. COPD patient algorithms). The device or remote server may be further configured to automatically provide alerts and drug recommendations.
