Network based patient monitor apparatus
First Claim
1. A patient monitor apparatus coupled to LAN of a hospital, the monitor apparatus having a unique address so that one of at least one terminal coupled to the LAN is adapted to retrieve data from the patient monitor apparatus by using the address, comprising:
- a body signal reading module for obtaining at least one body signal;
a signal processing module for digitally processing the at least one body signal to obtain at least one record of body data, converting the at least one record of body data into at least one Web page, and storing the Web pages in a memory;
a monitor module for receiving the at least one record of body data from the signal processing module and displaying the same, the monitor module including at least one input means for data input so that the signal processing module is adapted to process input data and the at least one body signal for obtaining at least one record of body data, and a network interface coupled to the signal processing module so that the signal processing module is adapted to send the at least one Web page to the at least one terminal over the LAN.

Abstract
A patient monitor apparatus coupled to LAN of a hospital is provided. The apparatus comprises a body signal reading module for obtaining at least one body signal, a signal processing module for digitally processing the body signal to obtain at least one record of body data prior to converting into at least one Web page, and a monitor module for showing data, and a network interface interconnected the signal processing module and the LAN for sending the Web page to any computer over the LAN. A medical staff (e.g., nurse or doctor) whether locally or remotely located, can immediately know the conditions of a patient by typing a unique address of the apparatus on a computer by viewing the Web pages of the patient.
