Abstract
A method and apparatus for detection of changes in physiologic parameters of a patient that includes generating measured physiologic parameters, generating an adaptive baseline trend of the measured physiologic parameters corresponding to a first time period, generating a short term trend of the measured physiologic parameters corresponding to a second time period less than the first time period, and generating a metric of physiologic parameter change between the adaptive baseline trend and one of a most recent measured physiologic parameter and the short term trend of the measured physiologic parameters.
