An assembly of electrically-powered devices designed to be used by a healthcare professional in a clinical setting for intermittent or continuous assessment of several vital physiologic parameters [e.g., electrocardiogram (ECG), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), pulse rate, temperature, haemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2)]. It includes both physiological parameter sensors, probes, and/or electrodes (e.g., ECG electrodes, blood pressure cuff) and processing hardware with dedicated software; typically it incorporates a monitoring screen, but may alternatively be connected to an off-the-shelf device for display.
