The advances in telemedicine technology have lead to intelligent monitoring systems that are capable of helping the medical expert in his decision-making process. These systems imply the introduction of a bedside computer that supervises the patient and collects, stores and visualizes in an accessible way all the information provided by the medical devices.

This paper describes the Telemedicine system that is currently being developed by our research team for the intelligent telemonitoring of patients at an Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Concretely, this article focuses on our 3D visualization module, which shows a virtual model of the patient and allows the clinical staff to visualize in a rapid and clear manner the patient's evolution.
