Abstract:
A multi-parameter patient monitoring device rack can dock a plurality of patient monitor modules and can communicate with a separate display unit. A signal processing unit can be incorporated into the device rack. A graphics processing unit can be attached to the display unit. The device rack and the graphic display unit can have improved heat dissipation and drip-proof features. The multi-parameter patient monitoring device rack can provide interchangeability and versatility to a multi-parameter patient monitoring system by allowing use of different display units and monitoring of different combinations of parameters. A dual-use patient monitor module can have its own display unit configured for displaying one or more parameters when used as a stand-alone device, and can be docked into the device rack when a handle on the module is folded down.

Claim (Index 58):
A device rack of a multi-parameter patient monitoring system with improved heat dissipation, the device rack configured to electrically communicate with a graphics processing unit separate from the device rack, the device rack comprising:\n a device rack housing having a front side, a back side, and a side surface extending between the front and back sides, the back side comprising a plurality of vent openings; a dock housing comprising a plurality of docks configured to receive a plurality of patient monitor modules, the plurality of patient monitor modules each configured for connecting to one or more sensors so as to measure one or more physiological parameters, wherein the dock housing is located in a first portion of the device rack housing and is spaced apart from an inner wall of the device rack housing to define a gap, the dock housing comprising a plurality of vent openings adjacent to the gap; a processor unit configured to receive and process data from the plurality of patient monitor modules, wherein the processor unit is located in a second portion of the housing; and a fan located in the second portion of the housing and at or near the plurality of openings on the back side, wherein, when activated, the fan is configured to draw pressurized air into the gap, the pressurized air flowing over the processor unit before exiting through the plurality of vent openings on the back side.
