1. HR/PR stands for heart rate and pulse rate
2. NIBP stands for non-invasive blood pressure, while IBP is invasive
3. SpO2 stands for oxygen saturation
4. RESP stands for respiratory rate
5. TEMP stands for body temperature
.Since the most core function of the multi-parameter monitor is cardiac monitoring, it has been simplified for a long time to be called cardiac monitor essentially no difference.
Patient monitors and cardiac monitors are also the same thing. Because the early monitor only on the electrocardiogram signal monitoring, so the customary monitor will be called cardiac monitor. Due to the subsequent development and progress of medical equipment, most notably clinical monitoring of vital indicators of the need to appear will be important vital signs, such as blood pressure, oxygen saturation, respiratory pressure curve, pulse rate, temperature and other indicators and electrocardiogram collection, to become what is now commonly known as the "patient monitor. If used for special purposes, such as anesthesia, carbon dioxide gas concentration (anesthesia workstation), as well as some special anesthesia gas concentration values, real-time display, monitoring, that is, anesthesia workstation. The next popular indicator is the muscle relaxation indicator, which can be integrated into a new anesthesia workstation. The following are some of the aliases for cardiac monitors:
"Bedside monitor", "Patient monitor", "Multi-parameter monitor", "Portable multi-parameter monitor". "portable multiparameter monitor", "multiparameter bedside monitor", "bedside monitor", "cardiac monitor ", "monitors"
