Interfacing existing medical monitoring equipment: a device driver approach
Johannes H. van Oostrom, W. Schwab, Jan J. van der Aa, G.L. Gibby · 2002
A method to interface with different physiological monitors is presented. Device-specific characteristics are implemented in device drivers in the form of Microsoft Windows DLLs (dynamic link libraries). A unified data representation is defined to make the application independent of the monitor providing the data.
