Monitor Instrument Classification

According to the structure, it is divided into four categories: portable monitors, plug-in monitors, telemetry monitors, and HOLTER (24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram) ECG monitors.

According to their functions, they are divided into three categories: bedside monitors, central monitors, and outpatient monitors (telemetry monitors).

The bedside monitor is an instrument that is connected to the patient by the bedside. It can continuously monitor various physiological parameters or certain states of the patient, and display alarms or records. It can also form a central monitor. Work as a whole.

The central monitor is also called the central system monitor. It is composed of the main monitor and several bedside monitors. The main monitor can control the work of each bedside monitor and monitor the conditions of multiple subjects at the same time. One of its important tasks is to complete the automatic recording of various abnormal physiological parameters and medical records.

The out-of-hospital monitor (telemetry monitor) is a small electronic monitor that the patient can carry around. It can continuously monitor a certain physiological parameter of the patient inside and outside the hospital for doctors to perform non-real-time inspections.
