Abstract:
A docking station for a patient monitoring device and method of locking
the patient monitoring device in the docking station is provided. A
housing selectively supports a patient monitoring device thereon and a
first port positioned on the housing receives a patient monitoring device
therein. A sensor senses one of a presence and absence of the patient
monitoring device within the first port. A locking mechanism mechanically
locks the patient monitoring device within the first port, wherein the
locking mechanism maintains the docking station and patient monitoring
device in a mechanically locked state in response to sensing the presence
of the patient monitoring device within the first port.Claims:
