Sensors in medical devices reduce manual labor and human error while increasing reliability and process automation. Sensors are used in equipment for surgical procedures, intensive care units, hospital recuperative care and home care.

State-of-the-art technologies can be created when medical equipment manufacturers and sensor experts work together. Selecting a sensor can be simple if the application and the parameters that need to be controlled are clearly understood.

In their new article, Measurement Specialties describe specifications for sensors used both inside and outside the body.
