Abstract

A physiological monitoring system may determine physiological information, such as physiological rate information, from a physiological signal. The system may determine a skew metric based on the physiological signal. The system may also determine a correlation lag value corresponding to a peak in a correlation sequence derived from the physiological signal. The system may qualify or disqualify the correlation lag value based on the skew metric. The system may, for example, compare the skew metric and the correlation lag value to a reference set of skew metric values and correlation lag values to determine whether to qualify or disqualify the correlation lag value.
