Dissertação de Mestrado em Engenharia Informática apresentada à Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade de CoimbraIn this thesis is described a system integration solution that can acquire data from
medical devices such as, ventilators, infusion pumps and Bispectral index monitors.
The system is also capable of providing a broker capable of sharing medical device data
with other applications running in the healthcare unit.
The implemented solution intends to tackle the problem of delivering medical data from
medical devices to multiple applications with di erent data requirements. By solving this
problem we aim to increase the amount of information available in computer applications
of intensive care units
