Trunk cable, for patient monitoring cables, has an adaptor block at one end with plug adaptors for connection to sensors at the patient and a monitor plug at the other end to link a multi-parameter monitor

摘要

The trunk cable (K), with the cables for monitoring a patient (P), carries ECG cables (E1-E3), a temperature monitor cable (T4), and an oxygen content measurement cable (O5). At the patient end, they are linked to appropriate sensors (E,O,T) by plug adaptors (AE,AO,AT) at an adaptor block (SB). A monitor plug (MS) at the other end gives the link to a monitor recognition circuit (MK) at a multi-parameter monitor (MM).
