Monitoring of patient's electrical characteristics
First Claim
1. A method for a medical monitoring system, in which method the changes in the electric activity of a patient are observed, and the functions of a patient are measured, characterized in that by measuring the electric activity of a patient, a 5-lead electrocardiogram (EKG) and/or enlargement to a 12-lead electrocardiogram, an electroencephalogram (EEG) and/or impedance cardiograph signal (IKG) is taken by means of one piece of measuring equipment.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a system for a medical monitoring system, in which method the functions of a patient are measured, and the change in the electric activity of the patient are observed. In the method, the electrocardiogram (EKG), electroencephalogram (EEG), and the impedance cardiograph signal (IKG) are being measured with one piece of measuring equipment.

12. A system for a medical monitoring system which comprises
signal conductors which are connected, according to the standard placement of electrodes, to the measuring electrodes (RA, LA, RL, LL, V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6) attached to the patient (P), and which each signal conductor comprises a first conductor apparatus, and measuring equipment which comprises electrocardiogram (EKG), electroencephalogram (EEG) and impedance cardiograph (IKG) signal equipment, characterized in that the equipment comprises a selector switch (K) for selecting the measurement type so that in the first position (I) of the switch, the signal conductors are connected to the electrocardiogram equipment (EKG), in the second position (II) of the switch, the conductors are connected to the electroencephalogram equipment (EEG), and in the third position (III) of the switch, the signal conductors are connected to the impedance cardiograph signal equipment (IKG).
