Abstract	This work presents a study on the reconfiguration requirements of wireless sensor network for biomedical applications. It is presented a wireless platform operating in a smart suit, the required monitored parameters and possible monitoring scenarios. The smart suit is currently used only for one scenario, which consists of monitoring handicapped people, with all physiological data being collected and routed to a base station. We propose using the smart suit for different scenarios, such as a patient requiring emergency medical care. The goal is to use the sensorial network in the suit to monitor his health condition, so that the cardio-respiratory rhythm, body temperature, and arterial pressure data can be used to help the diagnostic. We state that this network can be used if reconfigured correctly. This paper also shows that sensors here in use should control external high resolution ADCs using hardware interruptions instead of software interruptions.
