Apparatus, system, method, and computer-readable recording medium for displaying transport indicators on a physiological monitoring device

A physiological monitoring device, comprising:

• a sensor interface configured to receive physiological data from at least one physiological sensor connected to a patient;
• a display configured to display information related to the patient;
• and
• at least one processor configured to:
• operate the physiological monitoring device into a non-transport mode while docked to one of at least one monitor mount;
• display first location context information corresponding to a first patient care area on the display while the physiological monitoring device is operating in the non-transport mode in the first patient care area;
• detect an undocking event in response to undocking the physiological monitoring device from a first monitor mount of the at least one monitor mount, wherein the first monitor mount is located in the first patient care area;
• and
• in response to detecting the undocking event, operate the physiological monitoring device in a transport mode, including changing the first location context information to transport context information on the display, wherein the transport context information comprises an icon signifying that a patient transport is in progress and a timer displaying the elapsed time of the patient transport.

• detect an undocking event in response to undocking the physiological monitoring device from a first monitor mount of the at least one monitor mount, wherein the first monitor mount is located in the first patient care area;
• in response to detecting the undocking event, automatically switch the physiological monitoring device to a transport mode, including changing the first location context information to transport context information on the display, wherein the transport context information comprises an icon signifying that a patient transport is in progress and a timer displaying the elapsed time of the patient transport;
• and
• while in transport mode, correlating location data with information related to a patient care schedule.
