Physiological data
CIC Pro centers trend two types of physiological data: periodic and episodic.
Periodic data
Periodic data is constantly updated. Data is sampled every two seconds to yield 30
samples per minute. The displayed value is the median of the 30 samples. It is always
the median of a one-minute time frame, regardless of the interval selected.
The interval is the time between values, not the time of the value itself. For example,
a five-minute interval means one-minute samples spaced five minutes apart, not five-
minute samples, and not a median of the five one-minute samples. Odd number
values are rounded down to the nearest even number.
If the calibration of the system clock changes (for example, daylight saving time), the
time for periodic data slides into the revised time. However, episodic data is time-
stamped and retains its original time.
Examples of periodic data include heart rate and invasive blood pressure.
Episodic data
Episodic data is parameter data that is user, or system, generated. An example of
episodic data is non-invasive blood pressure.
