First Claim
Patent Images
1. A wearable medical monitor, comprising:
- a sensor attachable to a finger of a patient;
a housing comprising a processor configured to receive a physiological signal from the sensor and to determine a physiological parameter of the patient based on the physiological signal;
a cable comprising a connector that couples the sensor to the housing; and
a mount removably attachable to the housing to secure the housing about a wrist of the patient, wherein the mount comprises a channel positioned on the mount to receive the cable into the channel and a cable fastener positioned about the channel to retain the cable in the channel.

Abstract
A coupling portion of a wearable medical monitor may include an attachment member configured to reversibly couple the coupling portion to a body portion of the wearable medical monitor. The wearable medical monitor may be coupled to a sensor via a cable. The coupling portion may also include a cable retention feature including a channel configured to receive the cable. The cable retention feature may be configured to apply a retaining force to the cable when the cable is disposed in the channel.
