Abstract
A method may include receiving, at a processor, a first electromagnetic radiation signal and a second electromagnetic radiation signal from a regional oximetry sensor having two or more detectors and two or more emitters. The method may also include receiving, at the processor, a trigger signal that has a frequency corresponding to a periodic physical activity of a patient. Additionally, the method may include generating, via the processor, one or more ensemble averaged signals based at least in part on the first and second electromagnetic radiation signals and the trigger signal. Further, the method may include calculating, via the processor, a regional oxygen saturation value based at least in part on the one or more ensemble averaged signals and displaying, via a display, the regional oxygen saturation value.
