Don't specifically have that experience, but I imagine it would be trivial
to write (given some basic knowledge of Objective-C and iOS, in the
iPad/iPod/iPhone case). iOS uses a SQLite database behind the scenes that
you could easily store the information in and eventually update a SQL
database somewhere else with if that's your intent.
Not exactly sure how you'd do BP, HR, and resp rate on the same graph though
- they don't have identical scales or deviations. Would you have a scale
that changed based on which symbol was selected? Do you intend to have the
x-axis be time, and have multiple plots of each value, or do you intend to
have one of the values be the x-axis itself?
