Abstract
In this article, we describe a grid of sensors to collect patients´ vital data and to allow real time monitoring of patients in heath-care centres. We analyse the problem scenario and identify the components involved towards the construction of an integrated and homogeneous management system. Finally, we present a case study to demonstrate the applicability of our approach
