Etymology
'physician-monitored' originates from the combination of 'physician' and 'monitored', where 'physician' refers to a medical doctor and 'monitored' means to be observed or supervised.
'physician' comes from Old French 'fisicien', which means 'doctor', and 'monitored' comes from Latin 'monitorem', meaning 'one who reminds or advises'.
Initially, 'monitored' meant 'to remind or advise', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to observe or supervise'.
