Home Healthcare & SL Power Electronics
Posted August 18, 2020 by Advanced Energy Editor
Healthcare costs continue to steadily rise year over year, leading to medical providers avidly searching for innovative ways to provide quality care at an affordable cost. The foremost solution is to provide in-home treatments and monitoring devices.
These offerings are tremendously impacting the lives of patients with disabilities, chronic diseases, complex treatment plans, and those who wish to recover in the comfort of their own homes while also reducing their overall medical expenses.
The markets for home healthcare devices and equipment are expected to grow exponentially as the delivery of healthcare shifts from a clinical to home setting. With this, regulatory agencies have identified unique risks and implications of all AC or internally powered home medical equipment. In 2010, standards for home healthcare devices and equipment (IEC60601-1-11) were published and then revised in 2015.
Not only do SL Power Electronics’ products proudly meet all standards, but their versatility allows for smooth integration into many devices used in home healthcare environments.
