A modular medical care system, housing a plurality of different modules providing different functions used in delivering healthcare to a patient, includes a plurality of different modules including: (a) a patient monitoring module for acquiring and processing signals derived from sensors suitable for attachment to a patient; and (b) a patient treatment module for delivering treatment to the patient. A processor processes signals derived from the plurality of different modules. A communication interface provides bidirectional communication between the processor and the plurality of different modules via a network.

Modular medical care system

A device is provided for monitoring patients, which is used to detect and process physiological data of a patient, which are measured by sensors. To make possible the most flexible use possible in patient monitoring, especially the connection of additional special sensors ( ) and to ensure simple handling of the device even in the case of transportation, the patient monitoring device has a transportable terminal ( ), which has connections ( ) for connection to sensors ( ) for measuring physiological parameters of the patient and signal processing devices ( ) for receiving and processing the sensor signals received, and is provided with a network adapter ( ) for forwarding the processed sensor data to a stationary medical workplace ( ) with display and alarm devices, as well as one or more expansion modules ( ) for the connection of additional desired sensors ( ). Wherein the housing ( ) of the terminal ( ) is provided with a connection mechanism for the positive-locking coupling of the transport display module ( ) on one side and with a connection mechanism for the positive-locking coupling of an expansion module ( ) for receiving signals of additional sensors ( ) on the other side. Electrical contacts ( ) are also provided on the terminal ( ), the contacts ( ) being designed such that they come into connection with complementary contacts ( ) on the transport display module ( ) and on the expansion module ( ) at the time of the coupling of the connection mechanism to establish the electric connection.

Patient monitoring device

A pneumatic system of a device for noninvasive blood pressure measurement includes a pneumatic cuff which is connected to a multisensor block (,) by means of a pneumatic connection line (,). At least one sensor (,) sending electric output signals for measuring physiological parameters is connected to the multisensor block (,) by an electric connection line (,). The multisensor block (,) is connected to an evaluating and supply unit (,) by a single hybrid cable (,) containing a gas-carrying line (,) and at least two electric lines (,&prime;).
