Abstract
A patient monitor has multiple sensors adapted to attach to tissue sites of a living subject. The sensors generate sensor signals that are responsive to at least two wavelengths of optical radiation after attenuation by pulsatile blood within the tissue sites.

2. A patient monitor capable of measuring at least two physiological parameters, the patient monitor comprising:
-
a display capable of displaying a measured value of a first physiological parameter of body tissue of a monitored patient in a common portion of the display or displaying a measured value of a second physiological parameter of the body tissue in the common portion of the display, wherein the common portion of the display changes to displaying, at least, the other of the measured values based on an occurrence of a triggering event. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method of displaying two physiological parameter measurements using a display location of a display of a patient monitoring device, the method comprising:
-
displaying a measured value of a first physiological parameter in a display location of an electronic display; and changing the display of the measured value of the first physiological parameter to display, at least, a measured value of a second physiological parameter in the display location when a change in the measurement of the second physiological parameter causes a triggering event. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A patient monitor capable of determining a plurality of physiological parameters from an output signal of a light sensitive detector capable of detecting light attenuated by body tissue, the patient monitor comprising:
-
a display capable of displaying a measured value of a first blood parameter of body tissue of a monitored patient and displaying a measured value of a second blood parameter of the body tissue; and a user input button, the activation of which causes the display to change from displaying the measured value of the first blood parameter to displaying, at least, the measured value of the second blood parameter, wherein the display also changes from displaying the measured value of the first blood parameter to displaying, at least, the measured value of the second blood parameter when the second blood parameter passes an alarm threshold, wherein the measured values of the first and second blood parameters are determined using an output signal of a noninvasive light sensitive detector capable of detecting light attenuated by the body tissue. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
