They connect to allow the vitals to be pulled into the EMR to allow continuous documentation of vitals for the anesthesia record or central patient monitoring. More and more frequently, the database is not onsite and is shared amongst several sites within a hospital system.
But the device itself shouldn’t need internet connectivity for this. That networking should be handled by a local master device, the same way access control systems (e.g. Door badge readers, alarm monitoring, etc) work.
Then this device would only use a local, isolated network to access the master device.

Agreed. Network connected to an isolation vlan without internet access
