I would suggest you to use LabVIEW, it can be done very easily. and moreover there are already a lot of VI available which communicates to a set of medical equipments.

First you need to know how your equipment communicates, for example, does it blindly send out information on the port or do you have to pole the device for data? How is the data packed? Is there software or hardware handshaking? How about error checking? These are things that you may find in the equipment's documentation or you may have to contact the manufacturer and beg for it. One you have and understand this information you're half way there.
