ABSTRACT
This investigation aims to develop the communications component between anesthesia machines and alas HIS Hospital Information System, which will permit to visualize, to storage and to graphic in real time, the data cmoing from the equipment. The development is supported on any connection between the anesthesia machine and the PC through the standard serial port RS 232. From the data obtained of the equipment, it is proposed a solution to decode information related with anesthesia variables. To achieve the objective, is important to know the communications protocol of the hardware connected with the application. To implement it, the Java Programming Language and its Serial Communications API were used to connect external devices with the software. It was used Eclipse SDK V3.4.2 as development IDE. To get the graphics was used the JFreeChart library. The component will allow the visualizing, storage, and graphic representation of real time information from the anesthesia machines. To the physicians, it will permit better interpretation of anesthesia variables, thus avoiding human mistakes and helping to solve legal-medical cases.REFERENCES
