Abstract
A plurality of patient monitors () which each monitor medical conditions of a patient and display text and graphs depicting such medical conditions are connected by a network () with a central station (). Each monitor includes a paging unit () which communicates via the network with a paging server (). In response to a monitor determining a critical event in its patient's monitored medical condition, a page event is sent via the network to the paging server (). The paging server sends page messages to selective ones of the patient monitors, e.g., the monitors which are in closest proximity to a medical care professional associated with the patient, and the paging method is displayed by a display module () of the designated patient monitors.
