These in turn, affect the [[medical tend quality]], [[surgery]] success chance, and [[immunity gain speed]] of the patient. These effects stack with the doctor's base healing quality and medicine usage. |

Each hospital bed can benefit from at most one vitals monitor; placing additional monitors in range has no effect. '''Note:''' Do not confuse a "hospital bed" with any sleeping location designated as a "medical" bed. A vitals monitor ''only'' works for ''hospital'' beds - patients in any other type of bed or sleeping spot will not benefit. | Each hospital bed can benefit from at most one vitals monitor; placing additional monitors in range has no effect.

| − | + | A vitals monitor increases the level of care for injuries by boosting the [[Medical Tend Quality|medical tend quality]], which is always a good thing, making recovery from combat injuries and [[disease]]s faster. For self-tending, that figure is at 70%, so every boost helps if your best doctor is forced to tend to their own ailments.{{Check Tag|Fact Check|Can you lie in the bed and get the bonus when you're self tending?

This cap is relatively to reach, so it so may not be helpful or necessary for surgeons with very high [[Medical]] skill or even modestly skilled surgeons in a well equipped, clean hospital. |
| − | + | Where the vital monitor is not so replacemable however, is in its boost to immunity. Several [[diseases]] are a "race" where the ongoing tend quality is weighed against the rapid progress of the disease, and there the bonus from a vitals monitor can save the life of pawns with lower [[immunity gain speed]]. | |
