Abstract :
Using a WinCE PocketPC as a central controller and computational platform to acquire and process medical data in an ambulatory telemonitoring environment seems to be a reasonable design decision. This paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of such a platform based upon recent experiences with wireless telemonitoring in large animals.
