Abstract
A patient in intensive care is monitored by connecting the outputs of a plurality of sensors to a computer, where the sensors all relate to one mode of functioning such as heart beating, respiration, infusion of a liquid into the patient, etc. The sensor outputs are delivered to a computer that sounds an alarm, only if all sensors that indicate one function (e.g. heart beating) indicate dangerously low operation of that function. This avoids many false alarms caused by one sensor having a low output such as due to accidental disconnection of a wire.
