Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for determining when to update a blood pressure measurement. The value of a physiological metric may be monitored and compared to a reference value. A patient monitoring system may compute a difference between a monitored metric and a reference value, and compare the difference to a threshold value to determine whether to update a blood pressure measurement. The threshold value may be constant or variable, and may depend on the monitored metric.
