ABSTRACT:
A system for determining the value of a compositional parameter of blood, including a sensor for producing a signal related to the value of the compositional parameter. A computer analyzes the signal and produces an output representing the value of the compositional parameter of blood. There is a delayed response in the system such that the signal has a time-varying waveform that varies from an initial value to an equilibrated value. The equilibrated value is predicted by detecting the occurrence of an inflection point and then computing an estimate of the equilibrated value based upon the assumption that the waveform varies exponentially from the inflection point to the equilibrated value.
