1. A system for electronic patient care, the system comprising:

  • a first medical sensor configured to couple to a patient and measure a first physiological parameter of the patient;

    a medical device configured to operatively receive the first measured physiological parameter from the first medical sensor, the medical device configured to communicate the first measured physiological parameter, the medical device having a user interface configured to display a plurality of physiological sensor signals, the medical device configured to treat the patient;

    a server in operative communication with the medical device to receive the first measured physiological parameter for storage therein;

    a second medical sensor configured to couple to the patient and measure a second physiological parameter of the patient;

    a third medical sensor configured to coupled to the patient and measure a third physiological parameter of the patient,a wearable dock; and

    a wearable system monitor dockable to the wearable dock, the wearable system monitor configured to;

    identify a caregiver,start a timer when the wearable system monitor is detach from the wearable dock;

    stop the treatment of the medical device when a predetermined amount of time has elapsed without the wearable system monitor being docked into the wearable dock,identify the patient,authorize the caregiver to pair the wearable system monitor,pair the wearable system monitor with the patient-care device,reattach to the wearable dock,identify and authenticate the wearable dock, andresume the treatment of the medical device after the wearable system monitor is docked into the wearable dock, and the wearable dock is identified and authenticated by the wearable system monitor,wherein;

    the medical device is configured to operatively receive the first, second, and third physiological parameters from the first, second, and third medical sensors, respectively,the medical device is configured to;

    issue a first alert if the first physiological parameter exceeds a first threshold,issue a second alert if the second physiological parameter exceeds a second threshold,issue a third alert if the third physiological parameter exceeds a third threshold,detect a first pattern using the first measured physiological parameter,detect a second pattern using the second measured physiological parameter,detect a third pattern using the third measured physiological parameter,determine a medical condition exists when the first, second, and third patterns are detected within a predetermined amount of time relative to each other and the first physiological parameter is less than the first threshold, the second physiological parameter is less than the second threshold, and the third physiological parameter is less than the third threshold, anddisplay on the user interface only physiological parameters of the plurality of physiological sensor signals that are indicative of the medical condition and remove any physiological parameters of the plurality of physiological sensor signals that are not indicative of the medical condition.
