Abstract
Safe operation control systems are the most important aspect of medical device development apart from the machine's function itself. Due to the fact that machines are used on people, how people can protect themselves from intelligent/programmed automatic or semiautomatic operating systems is an unavoidable problem. The Massage Robot application is based on its medical potential, lightweight nature and underlying Internet of Things (IoT) device properties. Massage robots are currently going into development in clinical trials. Handheld system interruption equipment and the robot's physical characteristics can help people achieve harmless use. In this paper, we systematically test the safety of a massage robot in an entirely real-world setting. This paper focusses on safe control operations in order to keep exploring the most reasonable safe operating modes and interrupt modes for medical devices, as well as the security interrupt priority.
Highlights
According to technological development, new automation products are increasingly used in the medical field
A medical machine must follow a range of safety standards for the hardware and the software
A medical product must withstand real-world experience testing to determine its actual safety performance before it can be used in an actual clinic
Summary
New automation products are increasingly used in the medical field. The robot operates in an Internet of Things (IoT) environment collecting data for future analysis This deepens the requirements for network security and patient privacy for the massage robot to function properly. W. Si et al.: Green IoT Application of a Medical Massage Robot With System Interruption responsibility, conformity with all of the legal requirements to achieve a CE marking, which allows free movement and sale of the product throughout the European Economic Area [5]. The EMMA Massage Robot is an IoT device that can help physiotherapists to conduct and optimize massage treatment for patients. It includes the mainframe, a robot arm, and a massage end-effector. It is designed with the complete safety standards of software and hardware, due to its design mission.This study used real-world clinical simulation tests to evaluate the safety of the EMMA Massage Robot with respect to both hardware and software; in particular, we focused on its handheld system interruption equipment module, which is held in the patient’s hand to interrupt the robot action immediately in an emergency situation
