SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USING PHOTOPLETHYSMOGRAPHY IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF NARCOTIC REVERSAL AGENTS
摘要
Provided according to embodiments of the present invention are methods of monitoring and treating respiratory depression that include securing a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor to a central source site of an individual; administering a central nervous system (CNS) depressant to the individual; processing PPG signals from the PPG sensor with a computer in communication with the PPG sensor; and administering a narcotic reversal agent to the individual if the PPG signals or a physiological parameter derived therefrom are outside a preset value range. Related systems are also described.
