Introduction:

Technological advances experienced by phones and tablets with Android operating system have enabled the development of countless applications in the field of medicine. As far as we know, there is not reported in our health system the use of a portable device that allows the specialist to wirelessly monitor remotely the biomedical signals associated with the patient.

Objective:

Development of an Android application (as a tool) that can be adapted to multiple wireless monitoring systems in order to capture, visualize and store biomedical signals.

Method:

The general architecture of the wireless communication system that integrates the tool is shown and the software design of the tool and the interaction diagram of the five activities that compose it are proposed: “Menu”, “Patients”, “Configuration”, “Scanner”, “Graph”.

Results:

Different screens and functionalities of the application were shown, compatibles for two Cuban medical devices (and modes): Biomedical Measurement System for Vestibular Exploration (Reception) and the Wireless Electrocardiographic Monitoring System for Android devices (operates in Transmission/Reception mode).

Conclusions:

The application provides a simple and intuitive interface, which facilitates interaction with the user. Its qualitative evaluation through rapid tests showed excellent results in both cases.
