Abstract

This invention relates generally to monitoring sys-tems and more particularly concerns devices and systems used to monitor patients lying in hospital beds or in other care giving environments. According to a first aspect of the instant invention, a microprocessor based patient mon-itor is disclosed which includes a loudspeaker driven by a power amplifier responsive to an input signal derived from a programmable volume control. The microproces-sor synthesizes any one of multiple alarm sounds under software control, operates the programmable volume con-trol of the alarm system and activates and deactivates the alarm in response to the electronic signals received from the sensor and a user interface. An electrically erasable programmable read-only memory accessible by the pro-cessor stores data which can be modified to tailor the op-erations of the monitor to suit a variety of different needs.
According to still another aspect of the instant invention, a microprocessor-based patient monitor is disclosed which has a personality that is defined by software that is res-ident in modifiable nonvolatile memory, which software can thus be altered to change the programmed responses of the monitor. Finally, a software and hardware system is provided for reading information from and writing in-formation to modifiable nonvolatile RAM within a micro-processor-based patient monitor. This information might be parameter settings, data values, or computer instruc-tions.
