Blood Pressure Monitors:

  • Measure the force of blood against the walls of arteries, providing important information about cardiovascular health.

  • Cardiac Telemetry Systems:

  • Continuously monitor and transmit the electrical activity of the heart, particularly in hospitalized patients.

  • Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM):

  • Monitor glucose levels in patients with diabetes, providing real-time data for managing insulin therapy.

Pulse Oximeter:

  • Measure the oxygen saturation levels in the blood by attaching a sensor to a patient's fingertip or earlobe.

  • Capnography Monitors:

  • Measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in exhaled breath, useful for monitoring respiratory status.

  • Temperature Monitoring Devices:

  • Include digital thermometers, infrared thermometers, and temperature probes for monitoring body temperature.

  • Respiratory Rate Monitors:

  • Monitor the number of breaths a patient takes per minute, providing important information about respiratory function.

Holter Monitor:

  • Portable devices that continuously record ECG over an extended period, typically 24 to 48 hours, to monitor heart activity.

  • Heart Rate Monitors:

  • Monitor the heart rate, commonly used in clinical settings and during exercise.

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG):

  • Record the electrical activity of the heart, helping diagnose and monitor cardiac conditions.

Fetal Heart Rate Monitors:

  • Monitor the heart rate of a developing fetus during pregnancy, commonly used in obstetrics.

  • Blood Gas Analyzers:

  • Measure the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood, providing crucial information about respiratory and metabolic status.

  • Intracranial Pressure (ICP) Monitors:

  • Monitor pressure within the skull, important in neurocritical care for patients with head injuries or neurological conditions.

Central Venous Pressure (CVP) Monitoring:

  • Measure the pressure in the central veins, providing information about the patient's fluid status and cardiac function.

  • Pulmonary Artery Catheter (Swan-Ganz):

  • Measures various cardiovascular parameters, including cardiac output and pulmonary artery pressure.

  • Electroencephalogram (EEG):

  • Records electrical activity in the brain, useful in diagnosing and monitoring neurological disorders.

Oxygen Analyzers:

  • Measure the concentration of oxygen in gases, commonly used in respiratory therapy and anesthesia.

  • Remote Patient Monitoring Systems:

  • Use technology to monitor patients' health remotely, allowing healthcare providers to track vital signs and manage chronic conditions.

  • Biometric Monitors:

  • Track various biometric parameters, such as heart rate, sleep patterns, and activity levels, often used in wellness and fitness applications.
