Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for reducing motion artifact and spurious noise effects when computing estimates of values representative of at least one physiological parameter of a subject. For motion, measured motion values are compared with a motion threshold and the taking of physiological measurements used for computing the physiological parameter estimate values are either suspended until a measured motion value is under the threshold or a correction function is applied to the physiological measurements, the correction function being based on the measured motion values. As for spurious noise, physiological measurements taken while emitters are turned off are subtracted from physiological measurements taken while emitters are turned on in order to eliminate outside noise contamination.
