Bioinstrumentation
The Apollo bioinstrumentation system (BIS) and related hardware is described. The BIS requirements evolved as a continuation and refinement of medical monitoring systems utilized throughout the Mercury and Gemini programs. The BIS provided physiological data to ground-based medical personnel for operational inflight safety monitoring, for inflight medical experiments; and for ground-based operations safety monitoring. The overall performance of the BIS is evaluated.
