The Evolution of Patient Monitor Technology

Patient monitor technologies have evolved greatly over the last few decades.  They’ve gone from offering only single parameter monitoring capabilities, to now offering multi-parameter measurements.  In the past, different patient monitors were needed to measure every individual vital sign.  The ECG was carried out by one patient monitor, while blood pressure was done by a separate monitor.  Today’s technologies have evolved to offer not only multi-parameter measurement capabilities, but also networkable monitors, handheld monitors, portable monitors, and more.
 
Physicians everywhere depend highly on the integrity and consistency of their medical equipment.  A patient monitor is a physician’s direct link to the welfare of their patients, and having dependable, unfailing equipment at all times is vital.   As the technologies continue to evolve, it is likely that there will be even more to look forward to in not only patient monitoring, but in all facets of medical equipment technologies.
