Portable monitor control system

A device for control improving control of a portable fluid monitor, comprising:

• a control device housing operably disposed distally from, and fluidly coupled with, a portable monitor fluid inlet in a pivotable arrangement, and with a proximal end of a portable monitor body;
• a trigger pin operably disposed in the control device housing, the trigger pin normally biased toward the fluid inlet by a biasing component, the trigger pin sized to extend out of the control device housing;
• a trigger fixedly engaged with the fluid inlet, the distal end of the trigger operably engagable with a proximal end of the trigger pin to place the trigger pin in a set position that extends a distal end of the trigger pin from a distal end of the control device housing to provide a control arm stop;
• a restrictor component operably disposed between the trigger body and the body of the portable monitor, the restrictor component comprising:
• a flow restrictor disposed in a path of fluid flow;
• an axel shaft fixedly coupled with the flow restrictor and disposed along an axis of rotation that is substantially perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow;
• and
• a control arm fixedly engaged with the axel shaft and having a center of rotation at the axis of rotation, the lever arm stopped from rotation when the trigger pin in disposed in the set position, and allowed to rotate when the trigger pin in disposed in a triggered position, the triggered position occurring when the trigger arm is pivoted away from the set position.
