Abstract
The vital signs detected by vital sign detecting means 101 and the data detected by medical apparatus operation detecting means corresponding to each vital sign are sent to judging means 103. The judging means 103 judges the correlation between the vital signs and the medical apparatus operation state, and further judges whether a variation in vital signs detected by the vital sign detecting means 101 is within a range of variation estimated from the medical apparatus operation detected by the medical apparatus operation detecting means 102. And indicating means 104 indicates an alarm or a message on the basis of a judgement result of whether or not the variation in vital signs is within the estimated range of variation.
