1. A medical monitoring system comprising:
- one or more biometric monitors configured to collect time-stamped samples of a plurality of monitored biometric parameters;
an expression evaluator comprising a computer configured to generate time-stamped samples of a user-defined biometric parameter defined by a user-defined expression by evaluating the user-defined expression for one or more of the monitored biometric parameters incorporated into the user-defined expression;
a data storage including a first storage structure corresponding to each monitored biometric parameter configured to store the time-stamped samples of the corresponding monitored biometric parameter and a second storage structure corresponding to each user-defined biometric parameter configured to store the time-stamped samples of the corresponding user-defined biometric parameter;
a graphical display including a plurality of display regions; and
a station controller that is user-configurable to select a monitored biometric parameter or user-defined biometric parameter for each display region of the display component, the station controller configured to display in each display region a trend of time-stamped samples of the selected monitored biometric parameter or user-defined biometric parameter stored in the corresponding storage structure of the data storage by plotting the time-stamped samples of the selected monitored biometric parameter or user-defined biometric parameter respective to time as indicated by the time stamps of the time-stamped samples.

Abstract
In a medical monitoring system, one or more biometric monitors collect data of a plurality of monitored biometric parameters. An expression evaluator evaluates a user-defined expression incorporating one or more of the monitored biometric parameters to generate data for a user-defined biometric parameter. A further processing component performs processing and display of data of at least one parameter selected from the monitored biometric parameters and the user-defined biometric parameter. The further processing component operates in the same way regardless of whether the at least one parameter is selected from the monitored biometric parameters or the user-defined biometric parameter.

9. A medical monitoring system comprising:
-
one or more biometric monitors configured to collect time-stamped samples of a plurality of monitored biometric parameters including at least two monitored biometric parameters selected from the group consisting of;
heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), and electrocardiographic (ECG) data;a first data storage; a second data storage; and an expression evaluator comprising a computer configured to; generate time-stamped samples of a user-defined biometric parameter defined by a user-defined expression by evaluating the user-defined expression for the collected time-stamped samples of one or more of the monitored biometric parameters incorporated into the user-defined expression; store the collected time-stamped samples of the plurality of monitored biometric parameters in the first data storage in a format including a time stamp format for time stamps of the time-stamped samples and a sample value representation format for the samples; store the time-stamped samples of the user-defined biometric parameter in the second data storage in the same format as the collected time-stamped samples of the monitored biometric parameters, the same format including the same time stamp format and the same sample value representation format; and a display component configured to process and display a trend of time-stamped samples of at least one parameter selected from the monitored biometric parameters and the user-defined biometric parameter by plotting the time-stamped samples respective to time as indicated by the time stamps of the time-stamped samples. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)
