The invention relates to a disposable sensor device () for patient monitoring comprising a sensor () for providing an electric quantity based on a quantity to be detected, a first signal terminal () for providing a tap for the electric quantity, a first supply terminal () for supplying the sensor with an electrical supply quantity, a first connector for accommodating the first signal terminal () and the first supply terminal (), a second signal terminal () for providing a further tap for the electric quantity, and a second connector for accommodating at least the second signal terminal (). The invention further relates to a disposable sensor device for patient monitoring comprising a sensor () for providing an electric quantity based on a quantity to be detected; a first signal terminal () for providing a tap for the electric quantity; a first connector (A) for accommodating the first signal terminal, wherein the first connector (A) is provided with a trimming element (R) which simulates the influence of a selectively attachable first monitoring device () on a measuring of the electric quantity, wherein the trimming element (R) is electrically effective depending on a connector structure of a corresponding further connector (B, C) to be coupled with the first connector (A).

The present invention is directed to an apparatus and method for injecting an injectate fluid into a blood vessel of a patient for carrying out thermodilution or dye-dilution measurements in order to determine hemodynamic parameters of the patient. The apparatus includes sensing means for sensing a change of pressure and/or flow rate and/or temperature inside the injection channel, and a computer coupled to the sensing means for determining the time instants of start and finish of the injection process.
