At least an electroencephalogram (EEG) detected by a sensor is input from
a signal input section as a vital sign signal. The vital sign signal is
stored in a storage as vital sign data. A display includes a first
display area, a second display area and a third display area. A
controller reads out the vital sign data from the storage to display the
vital sign signal on the display. The controller includes a first display
processor, which displays the EEG in a real time manner, on the first
display area, a second display processor, which displays the EEG at a
time point in past, on the second display area, and a third display
processor, which displays a time-varying trend of a parameter of the EEG,
on the third display area. A designator designates a time point in past
in the trend displayed in the third display area, so that the EEG at the
designated time point is displayed on the second display area.
