Handheld patient-monitoring device is provided that includes a touchscreen having a display area. The touchscreen is configured to present a first chart section in the display area of the touchscreen. The device is also configured to detect an input gesture on the touchscreen that is indicative of a swipe along the touchscreen. The device is also configured to replace, in response to detecting the input gesture, the first chart section with a second chart section such that the second chart section is presented in the display area and the first chart section is not presented in the display area. The second chart section has at least one parameter region that displays information relating to a respective patient parameter. Replacement of the first chart section with the second chart section is visually indicated to the user.

Method and system for monitoring multiple patient parameters on a touchscreen

System is configured to present a health-monitoring window in an operator display. The health-monitoring window includes a set of graph regions. Each of the graph regions of the set has a background and a signal line of a patient parameter. For at least one of the graph regions of the set, the processor is also configured to determine that the patient parameter for a designated time is significant based upon a predetermined standard. The processor is also configured to provide a reference color to the background for the designated time. The reference color includes at least one of a plurality of potential reference colors. The background for the designated time has a fixed position with respect to the parameter signal line such that an area of the background having the reference color appears to move along the horizontal axis with the parameter signal line as time progresses.
