Safe, reliable power that’s fit for portable healthcare

In the quest to quell rising health care costs, portable medical devices are being prescribed with increasing frequency. Globally, the medical device market is expected to reach $350 billion by 2016 as more patients are served remotely with injection and infusion pumps, medical monitors, portable X-ray units, diagnostic equipment and an array of other home health devices.

While portability and miniaturization make medical electronics more practical, the true measure of effectiveness — and regulatory approval — is contingent on connectivity, safety, data security, quality and reliability. Performance failures may mean the loss of a patient or the deterioration of their health.
