This invention relates generally to monitoring systems and more particularly concerns devices and systems used to monitor patients the presence and absence of a patient from a bed, chair, etc. The preferred environment in which the instant invention would be used would be a hospital or other care giving facility, wherein patients who are at risk of falling might left unattended while they are seated or lying. According to a first aspect of the instant invention, a microprocessor-based patient monitor is disclosed which includes a loudspeaker that emits alarms synthesized by the microprocessor. The microprocessor synthesizes any one of multiple alarm sounds under software control and activates and deactivates the alarm in response to the electronic signals received from an attached sensor and a user interface.

L'invention concerne généralement des systèmes de surveillance et, plus particulièrement, des dispositifs et des systèmes utilisés pour surveiller la présence et l'absence d'un patient de son lit, sa chaise, etc. L'environnement préféré, dans lequel les systèmes de l'invention pourraient être utilisés, serait un hôpital ou autre institution d'administration de soins. Les patients qui risquent de tomber peuvent ainsi être laissés sans surveillance, tandis qu'ils sont assis ou allongés. Selon un premier aspect de cette invention, un appareil de surveillance de patients basé sur un microprocesseur comporte un haut-parleur qui émet des alarmes synthétisées par le microprocesseur. Ledit microprocesseur permet de synthétiser n'importe quelle alarme sonore sous le contrôle informatique et d'activer et de désactiver l'alarme en réponse aux signaux électroniques reçus d'un détecteur fixé et d'une interface d'utilisateur.
