This article needs to be updated.The reason given is: the section related to E.U. needs further updates (esp. in sections 3.2 and 4.2.2) as the directives 93/42/EEC on medical devices and 90/385/EEC on active implantable medical devices have been fully repealed on 26 May 2021 by Regulation (EU) no. 2017/745 (MDR); furthermore, Brexit triggers updates in these sections (U.K. developed their own ...
An insulin pump delivers insulin subcutaneously. The insulin pump body itself can also contain the algorithm used in an AID system, or it can connect via Bluetooth with a separate mobile device (such as a phone) to send data and receive commands to adjust insulin delivery. Algorithm. The algorithm for each AID system differs.
Medical device connectivity is the establishment and maintenance of a connection through which data is transferred between a medical device, such as a patient monitor, and an information system. The term is used interchangeably with biomedical device connectivity or biomedical device integration. By eliminating the need for manual data entry ...

An automated external defibrillator or automatic electronic defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses the life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular fibrillation (VF) and pulseless ventricular tachycardia, and is able to treat them through defibrillation, the application of electricity which stops the arrhythmia, allowing the heart to re ...
Use of real time monitoring of the heart in an intensive care unit in a German hospital (2015), the monitoring screen above the patient displaying an electrocardiogram and various values of parameters of the heart like heart rate and blood pressure. Electrocardiography is the process of producing an electrocardiogram ( ECG or EKG [a] ), a ...
This approach ensures flexibility and is what allows new device specialisation standards to be added easily: all Agents are instances of a "Medical Device System" object, and contain an appropriate mix of other objects pre-defined by the IEEE 11073-20601 framework standard. Self-describing and extensible
