Monitor
A medical monitor is a portable device used to track and display vital signs and other health indicators in real-time, which is crucial during emergencies. It measures key health metrics such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and respiratory rate, and sometimes additional parameters like body temperature and ECG. The monitor features a screen that presents these measurements clearly, allowing medical staff to quickly assess the patient’s condition. It operates with sensors and leads attached to the patient’s body, which relay data to the monitor. Designed to be compact and portable, the monitor is suitable for use in various settings, including ambulances, emergency rooms, and at the scene of an accident. This device provides continuous, critical information that helps healthcare professionals make informed decisions and deliver timely care.
