Claim 15:
16. A method of managing displays of a patient monitoring hub connectable to a plurality of physiological monitors, each physiological monitor configured to be in communication with one or more physiological sensors, the method comprising:
under control of a hardware processor of the patient monitoring hub comprising a display:
identifying the plurality of physiological monitors connected to the patient monitoring hub;
identifying a plurality of parameters to be displayed by the patient monitoring hub based at least in part on information of the plurality of physiological monitors, wherein each of the plurality of physiological monitors is configured to measure at least one parameter of the identified plurality of parameters and includes at least one preprogrammed display layout, wherein the plurality of physiological monitors comprise different types of independent medical devices each including their own displays that are configured to display the at least one parameter on the respective displays, the preprogrammed display layouts of the different types of independent medical devices being different from one another;
generating a set of self-configurable display layout options based on layout restrictions, wherein the layout restrictions are based on the plurality of physiological monitors connected to the patient monitoring hub and the at least one preprogrammed display layout of each of the plurality of physiological monitors connected to the patient monitoring hub;
automatically populating a display layout manager on the display with the set of self-configurable display layout options;
outputting the plurality of parameters on the display according to a user selection of one of the self-configurable display layout options or a default selection by the hardware processor of one of the self-configurable display layout options in an absence of the user selection;
detecting a change to the plurality of physiological monitors connected to the patient monitoring hub; and
automatically updating the set of self-configurable display layout options and the display layout manager based at least in part on the change.
