Arm mountable portable patient monitor
DCFirst Claim
1. An arm mountable portable patient monitoring device configured to receive physiological information from a plurality of sensors attached to a patient at at least two different measurement sites via wired connections for on-patient monitoring of parameter measurements and wireless transmission of parameter measurements to separate monitoring devices, the portable patient monitoring device comprising:
- a housing configured to be secured to an arm of a patient under measurement;
a strap mountable to a back side of the housing and configured to secure the housing to the arm of the patient;
a display positioned on a front side of the housing, the display configured to show at least one status indicator of the portable patient monitoring device and one or more parameter measurements;
a first sensor port positioned on a first side of the housing, the first side of the housing configured to face toward a hand of the arm of the patient when the housing is secured to the arm of the patient, the first sensor port configured to electrically receive a signal from a pulse oximetry sensor via a wired connection from the pulse oximetry sensor to the first sensor port, the wired connection configured to extend from the first sensor port along a path substantially perpendicular to the first side of the housing;
a second sensor port positioned on the housing and configured to receive a signal from a second sensor arrangement via a wired connection;
a third sensor port positioned on the housing configured to receive a signal from a third sensor arrangement via a wired connection;
one or more signal processing arrangements configured to;
receive the signal from the pulse oximetry sensor; and
cause to be displayed, on the display, at least measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate derived from the signal; and
a transmitter configured to;
wirelessly transmit information indicative of the measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate to a separate monitoring device configured to receive the information indicative of the measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate.

Abstract
An arm mountable portable patient monitoring device configured to receive physiological information from a plurality of sensors attached to a patient via wired connections for on-patient monitoring of parameter measurements and wireless transmission of parameter measurements to separate monitoring devices. The arm mountable portable patient monitoring device includes a housing, a strap, a display, a first sensor port positioned on a first side of the housing configured to face toward a hand of the patient when the housing is secured to the arm of the patient, second and third sensor ports configured to receive signals from additional sensor arrangements via a wired connections, one or more signal processing arrangements configured to cause to be displayed measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate, and a transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit information indicative of the measurements of oxygen saturation and pulse rate to a separate monitoring device.
