Monitor is a device or system that measures and controls a patient's physiological parameters and can be compared with known settings, and can sound an alarm if there is an exceedance.
Medical monitor is a device or system that measures and controls a patient's physiological parameters and can be compared with known settings, and can sound an alarm if there is an exceedance. Monitor it must be 24 hours continuous monitoring of the patient's physiological parameters, check out the trend of change, pointing out the critical situation for doctors emergency treatment and treatment basis, so that complications to minimize the purpose of alleviating and eliminating the condition. In addition to the measurement and monitoring of physiological parameters, the use of the monitor also includes monitoring and processing of medication and the situation before and after surgery.
Expanded Information
Divided into four categories based on their structure: portable monitors, plug-in monitors, telemetry monitors, and HOLTER (24-hour ambulatory electrocardiogram) cardiac monitors.
Divided into three categories according to function: bedside monitor, central monitor, discharge monitor (telemetry monitor).
Bedside monitor is set up in the bedside with the patient connected to the instrument, can be a variety of physiological parameters or certain state of the patient for continuous monitoring, to be displayed to the alarm or record, it can also be with the central monitor to form a whole to work.
Central monitor, also known as the central system monitor, which is composed of the main monitor and a number of bedside monitors, through the main monitor can control the work of the bedside monitors, the situation of a number of monitored objects at the same time for monitoring, one of the important task is to complete the abnormal physiological parameters and the automatic recording of medical records.
Leaving the hospital monitor (telemetry monitor) so that the patient can carry a small electronic monitor, can be in and out of the hospital on the patient's some kind of physiological parameters for continuous monitoring, for doctors to carry out non-real-time examination.
