1. A monitoring device control system, comprising:

  • a position detector that detects a chest elevation level of a subject and provides chest elevation level data;

    a pressure sensor system installed on a bed that provides pressure sensor data associated with the subject;

    a processor in a control unit that uses the chest elevation level data to continuously monitor a heart elevation level with respect to a reference level, wherein the control unit recalibrates the heart elevation level in accordance to whether a left movement or a right movement of the subject is detected, wherein recalibration in accordance with left movement differs from recalibration in accordance with right movement for a given subject chest thickness, wherein the control unit further comprises a closed-loop self-learning structure that nonlinearly combines the heart elevation data, the pressure sensor data and a position of a trolley or rail where a monitoring device is installed to generate one or more control parameters; and

    a movement system that adjusts an elevation level of the monitoring device in response to the one or more control parameters.
