1. A multi-parameter patient monitoring system, the system comprising:
a first device comprising a first processing system in electrical communication with one or more physiological sensors attached to a patient, the first processing system configured to receive and process signals from the one or more physiological sensors to calculate one or more physiological parameters of the patient, the first processing system further configured to output the one or more physiological parameters for display; and
a second device physically separated from the first device and in electrical communication with the first device, the second device comprising a display unit and a second processing system, the second processing system configured to receive the one or more physiological parameters outputted by the first processing system and display the one or more physiological parameters on the display unit,
wherein the second device comprises a first housing portion and a second housing portion, the display unit located in the first housing portion and the second housing portion located on a back side of the first housing portion, and
wherein the second housing portion comprises a sloped side wall such that a first end of the sloped side wall surrounds a bigger surface area than a second end of the sloped side wall, the first end being closer to the back side of the first housing portion and the second end opposite the first end and being further away from the back side of the first housing portion, wherein at least one side of the sloped side wall comprises a plurality of vent openings.
