A significant part of medical signals, or observations, is non-stationary, discrete time sequences. Thus, the computer methods analysis, as well as refinement and compression, are very helpful as for the problems of recognition and detection of their key diagnostic features. We are going to illustrate here this statement with examples of very common, and even routine medical measurements of blood pressure as well as pulse rate and with possibilities of Maple.The package of Discrete Wavelet transforms (DWT) within Maple 16 [1] was recently added as new research software just for such tasks. The practical testing of this package was additional goal of present study.
