In development countries the vital signs data measurement normally is performed at hospitals or laboratories where patients remain under observation with many electrodes attached on the body. The integration of biomedical data acquisition systems and information technologies (IT) enables continuous real time monitoring of physiological data in daily life, which improves patient's medical care and medical research possibilities. To achieve this goal, the research and development of some wearable intelligent sensors, sensors miniaturization, signal processing, wireless transmission, and databases development for these vital data have been done. Our goal is to implement a wearable system that can be used in places located outside of hospitals and medical institutions coverage area. In this paper, we present the current stage of the project where some intelligent modules have been implemented and other are under construction. Preliminary results concerning Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP), ECG and wireless connection are also presented.

In this work we study the effects of a first order phase transition EoS and a lattice QCD based EoS on the pion interferometry. We use a simple hydrodynamical model with cylindrical symmetry and longitudinal boost invariance. We conclude that the results of the HBT radii are very similar for both EoS.

In this work, we study relativistic heavy ion collisions by using a hydrodynamic model for both ideal and viscous cases to investigate the influence of dissipative effects on the elliptic flow and HBT interferometry. We conclude that the bulk viscosity has small influence in hydrodynamic calculations. However, our results show that the shear effects are important for describing the experimental data in central collisions.
