ABSTRACT:
A method for compressing clinical data includes monitoring a clinical parameter of a patient using a digital electronic monitoring device, wherein the clinical parameter is a function of time. A processor is utilized to locate exceptional values of the clinical parameter in accordance with predetermined criteria. The method further includes electronically encoding and communicating diagnostically significant information concerning the exceptional values of the clinical parameters to a clinical database repository (CDR) and information concerning normal values of the clinical parameters to the CDR, wherein the communicated exceptional values of clinical parameters and the communicated normal values of clinical parameters are encoded using different methods.
