Abstract
A medical monitor (1) comprises a recess (6) in its bottom side. A lateral wall (9) of this recess (6) is oriented in the same direction as the front panel (2) of medical monitor (1) and carries connectors or jacks. If the medical monitor is operated in a vertical position, its rear panel becomes its top panel. The rear panel does not comprise any connectors, and the connectors at lateral wall (9) as well as patient connectors (3a, 3b, 3c, 4) are oriented downwards. Therefore, the monitor is safe against sprayed or spilled fluids even if operated in vertical position.
