The parameters of a monitor refer to ECG, heart rate, respiration, invasive blood pressure, non-invasive blood pressure, cardiac output, temperature, pulse, blood gases, and oxygen saturation, which is the ratio of oxygen content to oxygen capacity.
A medical monitor is a device or system designed to measure and control a patient's physiologic parameters, which can be compared to known set values, and which can sound an alarm if there is an exceedance.
Monitor it must be 24 hours of continuous monitoring of the patient's physiological parameters, check out the trend of change, pointing out the critical situation, for doctors to deal with emergencies and the basis for treatment, so that complications to minimize to alleviate and eliminate the purpose of the disease. In addition to the measurement and monitoring of physiological parameters, the use of monitors also includes monitoring and processing of medication and the situation before and after surgery.
With the steady growth of China's medical equipment market, medical monitors are also from the past, mainly used for the monitoring of critically ill patients, the development of general ward monitoring, and even the primary health care units and community health care units also put forward the application of the demand.
Expanded information:
The role of the monitor:
Monitor and monitor diagnostic equipment is different, it must be 24 hours continuous monitoring of the patient's physiological parameters, detecting changes in the trend, pointing to the situation of imminent danger for the doctor's emergency response and treatment basis, so that the complications of the The basis of treatment, so that complications are minimized to achieve the purpose of alleviating and eliminating the condition.
The purpose of the monitor is not only to measure and monitor physiological parameters, but also to monitor and deal with the conditions before and after medication and surgery.
The standard 6 parameters of a monitor are ECG, respiration, noninvasive blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse rate, and temperature. Optional parameters include invasive blood pressure, end-expiratory carbon dioxide, respiratory mechanics, anesthetic gases, cardiac output (invasive and non-invasive), EEG dual frequency index, and more.
Clinical applications of the monitor: intra-operative, post-operative, trauma care, coronary heart disease, critically ill patients, neonates, preterm infants, hyperbaric oxygen chambers, labor and delivery rooms, and so on.
