Objectives: To determine how different mathematical time series approaches can be implemented for the detection of qualitative patterns in physiologic monitoring data, and which of these approaches could be suitable as a basis for future bedside time series analysis.

We present a robust graphical procedure for routine detection of isolated and patchy outliers in univariate time series. This procedure is suitable for retrospective as well as for online identification of outliers. It is based on a phase space reconstruction of the time series which allows to...

Objectives: Time series analysis techniques facilitate statistical analysis of variables in the course of time. Continuous monitoring of the critically ill in intensive care offers an especially wide range of applications. In an open clinical study time series analysis was applied to the...

Intelligent alarm systems are needed for adequate bedside decision support in critical care. Clinical information systems acquire physiological variables online in short time intervals. To identify complications as well as therapeutic effects procedures for rapid classification of the current...

As high dimensional data occur as a rule rather than an exception in critical care today, it is of utmost importance to improve acquisition, storage, modelling and analysis of medical data, which appears feasible only with the help of bedside computers. The use of clinical information systems...
