Abstract

For many years the idealists have been searching for the perfect medical electrical equipment. Not only should it do its job superbly, preferably for a cost less than the local budgetary limits, but it must be safe, each unit delivered must work with no need to commision, acceptance test or repair the equipment; indeed, there should be no need to ever open the marvellous handbook that would never get lost.
