METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SENSOR PLACEMENT TIME, PHYSIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENT APPARATUS, AND SENSOR AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR A PHYSIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENT APPARATUS

摘要

A method for controlling sensor placement time, a physiological measurement apparatus and a sensor and computer program product for a physiological measurement apparatus are disclosed. In order to prevent skin injuries, occurrence of at least one predetermined event is monitored, wherein the at least one predetermined event comprises at least one predetermined start event. Upon detection of any of the at least one predetermined start event, a respective timer is started, thereby to start at least one timer, wherein each timer is provided with dedicated timer settings.
