ABSTRACT:
A patient monitor includes an enclosure which is secured to the bed of a patient. The enclosure is electrically connected with a nurse's call panel and the enclosure serves to mount a jack which is electrically connected to the nurse's call panel. This jack includes a normally closed switch which is opened when a mating plug is installed in the jack. The plug is connected by a cord to the gown of the patient in the bed. When the patient attempts to leave the bed the patient's motion pulls the plug from the jack, thereby allowing the switch to close and signalling via the call panel the patient's attempt to leave the bed.
