1. An ambulatory medical data recorder, comprising:
- all enclosure comprising a plurality of exterior surfaces, including opposing front and back exterior surfaces, opposing side exterior surfaces disposed between the front and back exterior surfaces, and opposing upper and lower exterior surfaces disposed between the side exterior surfaces, the enclosure enclosing an interior volume;
a processor for sampling sensed physiologic data, the processor being disposed within the interior volume;
at least one sensor port for providing an electrical connection between the processor and an external sensor for sensing at least one physiologic signal, at least a portion of the at least one sensor port being contiguous with at least one of the exterior surfaces of the enclosure;
sensor port shield, integral or attached to at least one of the exterior surfaces of the enclosure, the sensor port shield extending over at least a portion of the at least one sensor port to prevent the ingress of fluids therein or thereon.

Abstract
An ambulatory device having a case with an integral splash cover about the area of the catheter input ports is described. Moreover, the ports are angled such that when the device is carried in its intended manner by a patient, the ports are angled downwards. Through the case design, in combination with the angle of the ports, the device is relatively more resistant to splash-related problems as compared to prior devices.
