ABSTRACT:
A pulse oximetry method and system for improved motion correction is disclosed. The method/system provides for the use of a detector output signal to obtain a different plurality of differential absorption data sets in corresponding relation to each of a succession of measurement, wherein each of the data sets includes differential absorption values for light of a first wavelength and light of a second wavelength. The data sets are processed to obtain a relative motion estimate value for each measurement. When the relative motion estimate value for a given measurement falls within a predetermined range (i.e., corresponding with clinical motion), a corresponding blood analyte indicator value is adjusted in a predetermined manner, wherein the corresponding adjusted blood analyte indicator is employable to obtain at least one blood analyte concentration value. In one embodiment, blood analyte indicator values may be readily multiplied by a predetermined adjustment factor (i.e., when clinical motion is identified). The relative motion estimate value for a given measurement may be obtained by conducting a principal component analysis of the corresponding plurality of data sets relative to a corresponding best fit function therefor to obtain corresponding variance values V1, V2. The variance value V1, and/or V2for a given current measurement may be employed to obtain a current motion estimate value. The current motion estimate value and the relative motion estimate value obtained for a prior low motion measurement (i.e., for which no adjustment was necessary) may be used to compute the relative motion estimate value for the current measurement. The variance values V1and/or V2are also employable to compute an ongoing, updated motion probability factor, wherein such factor may be used to adjust relative motion estimates values in instances of rapid tissue perfusion changes.
