ABSTRACT:
A headbox for connecting patient monitoring physiological sensors to a monitoring instrument, such as an EEG machine, includes a general purpose input/output device having connectors for coupling to the sensors and to the instruments, which is configured for a particular monitoring procedure by one of a plurality of similar configuration cards which are electrically and mechanically compatible with the input/output device. The configuration card includes interconnections between the sensors and the instrument inputs which are specific for a particular monitoring procedure. The configuration card may include a graphic representation of a body to show where sensors should be placed on a patient and connected to the headbox for the particular monitoring procedure, and may physically occlude connectors which are not to receive sensors in the procedure. The configuration card may include a memory for storing data regarding a patient or the monitoring procedure for which it is configured.
