A monitoring apparatus and method includes a monitor, a sensor comprising a wireless connection with the monitor, and an adapter comprising the wireless connection with the monitor and a wired or wireless connection with a remote monitoring station. The monitor is designed to wirelessly pair with the sensor and/or the adapter when being only positioned by a user in a closed proximity to the sensor and/or the adapter or in a direct contact with the sensor and/or the adapter and without an additional action by the user and/or a wired connection between the monitor and the sensor and/or the adapter. A pairing alignment mark may be provided on each of the monitor, sensor and adapter.

Patient monitoring system and method

Systems and methods for monitoring the location of a patient using an integrated belt and sensor for alarm for patient furniture. The belt may include at least one strap and a slider configured to be releasably attached to one another and an alarm system that is triggered when the slider is disengaged from the other strap or straps. By doing so, the amount of time it takes to remove the belt can be increased, which provides medical personnel additional time to reach a patient. Additionally, the system may include additional components to allow a patient to move side-to-side relative to the furniture or device. For instance, where the furniture is a bed, side-to-side movement is desired for added comfort. The system may include a slider enabling the belt to be adjustable for patients of any number of different sizes.

Integrated belt and sensor for alarm for patient furniture

The present invention provides an improved electronic fall monitoring system comprising a device having multiple sensor ports for flexibly monitoring various sensors associated with a single patient without requiring repeated connections and disconnections of sensors. With several sensors simultaneously connected at different locations, a processor can execute to ensure that only one sensor, corresponding to one patient, is monitored at any given time, including by triggering an alarm when a second sensor is triggered while a first sensor is in use. Accordingly, the system can provide a 'one step transfer' in which a caregiver may simply press hold once to transfer a patient from one sensed area to another. In addition, the caregiver can simply actuate a single input with only a momentary press to allow suspension of monitoring for a shorter duration (hold) or a longer press to allow suspension of monitoring for a longer duration (extended hold).
