1. A patient monitor system, comprising:
- a plurality of docking stations, each docking station associated with a respective patient monitoring location;
a portable patient monitor configured to be selectively coupled with and selectively decoupled from the respective docking stations as a user transports the patient monitor among the patient monitoring locations, the patient monitor comprising;
a patient data acquisition unit for receiving patient data signals from one or more sensors attached to a patient; and
a processor for processing the patient data signals, the processor configured to;
detect a coupling of the patient monitor to a first docking station of the plurality of docking stations, the first docking station being associated with a first patient monitor location;
in response to a predetermined condition, prompt the user to select one or more first default configuration settings associated with the first patient monitor location; and
in response to a user selection, load the selected one or more first default configuration settings into the patient monitor.

Abstract
A patient monitoring system includes a patient monitor and a plurality of docking stations. Each docking station is associated with a set of patient monitor configurations. Interfacing the patient monitor with a particular docking station allows a user to select one or more of the set of patient monitor configurations associated with the particular docking station for use in the patient monitor.

19. A method for use by a patient monitor system including a portable patient monitor and a plurality of docking stations, the method comprising:
-
associating each of the plurality of docking stations with a respective patient monitoring location; receiving patient data signals into the patient monitor from one or more sensors attached to a patient; processing the patient data signals for display on the patient monitor; detecting a coupling of the patient monitor to a first docking station of the plurality of docking stations, the first docking station being associated with a first patient monitor location; in response to a predetermined condition, prompting the user to select one or more first default configuration settings associated with the first patient monitor location; and in response to a user selection, loading the selected one or more first default configuration settings into the patient monitor. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)

32. A patient monitor system including a portable patient monitor and a plurality of docking stations, the system comprising:
-
means for associating each of the plurality of docking stations with a respective patient monitoring location; means for receiving patient data signals into the patient monitor from one or more sensors attached to a patient; means for processing the patient data signals for display on the patient monitor; means for detecting a coupling of the patient monitor to a first docking station of the plurality of docking stations, the first docking station being associated with a first patient monitor location; means for prompting, in response to a predetermined condition, the user to select one or more first default configuration settings associated with the first patient monitor location; and means for loading, in response to a user selection, the selected one or more first default configuration settings into the patient monitor.
