[Computer medical monitors: state-of-the art and perspectives]

The paper shows that the currently available Russian and foreign computer medical monitors (CMMs) may generally solve the simplest tasks of data visualization, recording, and archiving. It is justified that to enhance the "intellectuality" of CMMs, it is necessary to turn to the solution of the problems and tasks of medical monitoring, by using the whole range of methods for biosignal detection and processing, which has been accumulated in modern radio engineering, in the theory of communication, and in engineering and medical cybernetics.
