Applications in Medical

Medical power application refers to the use of power to ensure the normal operation of various medical devices and equipment used in patient care and treatment. In the healthcare environment, a reliable and stable power supply is essential to guarantee the accuracy, safety and effectiveness of medical procedures. The application of power supply in medical treatment has the following aspects:

Diagnostic & Laboratory Equipment

Given the escalating concerns over environmental and food safety, the prevalence of harmful bacteria that pose a threat to human health is on the rise. In order to address these issues, research facilities are tirelessly conducting experiments and supplying crucial data regarding chemical detection and analysis. This valuable information aids in clinical diagnostics, treatment protocols, post-treatment health monitoring, immune system enhancement, biochemical analysis, DNA profiling, enzyme-linked immunoassay testing, and more. The effective operation of such medical equipment relies heavily on a consistent DC voltage supply.

Imaging Equipment

Medical imaging plays a vital role in providing doctors with accurate insights into patients’ conditions, enabling effective disease treatment and supporting academic research. These sophisticated systems typically comprise various electronic components or control boards that necessitate single or multiple sets of DC output voltages. It is crucial to choose the appropriate medical power supply that aligns with the specific electrical requirements of the end system, including factors such as MOPP or MOOP requirements and whether it needs to be built-in or externally installed.

Surgical Equipment

Surgical Equipment

The evolution of electronic technology has led to the replacement of non-electric surgical equipment with electric devices such as da Vinci minimally invasive surgery, high-frequency electrosurgery, endoscopic electric cutting machines, and shock wave lithotripters. These advanced tools are essential for cutting, coagulation, and tissue ablation during surgical procedures. The provision of reliable power is paramount in ensuring the precision and safety of these critical operations.

Portable Medical & Home Healthcare Equipment

In recent years, the home healthcare industry has boomed in countries around the world. Patients with stable conditions can use home care equipment for self-care at home, such as steam inhalation medicine, blood oxygen measurement, nebulizer, physiotherapy, anti-bedsore, bed, etc. Due to its high portability, there is a need for AC outlets that are easy to plug in, unplug and replace. These home care and portable devices must be supported by reliable power sources.

Power supply applications in healthcare are critical to ensuring the functionality and safety of various medical devices and equipment. Power reliability directly impacts the quality of patient care, so healthcare facilities must invest in robust power solutions and backup systems to reduce the risk of power outages during critical medical procedures.

Key Points in Medical Device Design

It is critical that medical and healthcare equipment operate under strict safety mechanisms. Specifying the wrong power converter can result in extended time to market and additional certification costs. Power converters designed to minimize stress on components during normal operation can still suffer from poor reliability if exposed to excessive heat in the final installation.

Isolation barriers in medical equipment

We possess a deep understanding of the essential principles governing the isolation barrier specifications for medical designs. These specifications necessitate the separation of conventional medical equipment from applied parts. To ensure compliance with safety standards, two isolation barriers are required to isolate the applied part from ground and meet patient leakage current limits in both normal and single fault scenarios. The XP power supply serves as an effective primary isolation barrier for these devices, while an additional system component or an XP solution can provide the secondary isolation barrier.

EMC Challenges During Development

The careful selection and integration of power conversion devices play a vital role in ensuring optimal emissions and immunity performance for your product. Our healthcare power solutions have undergone rigorous testing and are fully certified to meet the most up-to-date medical device emissions and immunity standards. With our deep expertise in power conversion integration, we are well-equipped to identify potential issues and offer best practice recommendations to effectively address any challenges you may encounter.
