1. A physiological monitor touchscreen interface presents interface constructs on a touchscreen display that are particularly adapted to finger gestures so to change at least one of a physiological monitor operating characteristic and a physiological touchscreen display characteristic, the physiological monitor touchscreen interface comprising:

  • a first interface construct operable to select a menu item from a touchscreen display wherein the first interface construct comprises;

    a first scroller that presents a rotating set of the menu items in a touchscreen display area wherein the first scroller presents a rotating set of second level menu items upon selection of the menu item; and

    a second scroller that presents a rotating set of thumbnails in a display well,wherein the thumbnails reference the menu items and the thumbnails rotate with the menu items;

    a second interface construct operable to define values for the selected menu item wherein the second interface construct is a slider for selecting limits for one of the second level menu items;

    a spinner used in conjunction with the slider for making a first gross limit selection with the slider followed by a finer limit selection with the spinner;

    a parameter area for displaying parameter values in a full presentation format;

    a parameter well area for displaying parameter values in an abbreviated presentation format, the full presentation format being a larger font than the abbreviated presentation format; and

    a dynamic space allocation for the parameter values presented in the parameter area such that the fewer parameters in the parameter area and, accordingly, the more parameters in the parameter well area, the larger the display font for the parameters in the parameter area.
