A non-invasive physiological sensor system implemented as a smart watch or other wearable device includes an emitter for emitting light and a detector for collecting light after the light interacts with a tissue of a wearer. The system can measure light intensity at one or more radial distances to estimate attenuation parameter values that can be used to correct physiological parameter bias across subjects. In addition or alternatively, the system can determine whether a detector is positioned sufficiently proximate to an obstructing tissue (for example, an artery or vein) so as to cause inaccurate measurements by the detector.

Systems and methods for assessment of placement of a detector of a physiological monitoring device

A patient monitor can noninvasively measure a physiological parameter using sensor data from a nose sensor configured to be secured to a nose of the patient. The nose sensor can include an emitter and a detector. The detector is configured to generate a signal when detecting light attenuated by the nose tissue of the patient. An output measurement of the physiological parameter can be determined based on the signals generated by the detector. The nose sensor can include an inner prong and an outer prong to assist the nose sensor in securing to a patient's nose. The detector can be coupled to an inner post of the inner prong and can be configured to secure to an interior or exterior portion of the patient's nose.
