Medical equipment in the hospital and doctor's office setting is relied upon more and more for the life and safety of the patient. Faulty monitoring can lead to serious harm or death. Many monitoring devices must be equipped with a failure mode or an audible alarm which can alert physicians and hospital personnel in the event of any malfunction. It is of utmost importance that hospitals follow their regulations and a proper standard of care with regard to checking that machines properly function and that machines are safe for patient use.
