Texas A & M presents at MEDCon: Design Your Medical Device with the Future in Mind

January 19, 2011 By MEDCon

Medical Electronic Device Conference & Expo (MEDCon) announces that William
Hyman, Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Texas
A&M University

This event provides the opportunity to stay at the forefront of innovations in
engineering for electronic medical devices.

In the session “Designing Your Product with the Future in Mind: Categorizing Identical, Suitable, or Inappropriate Replacement Parts,” William will discuss issues associated
with the suitability of replacement parts obtained from non-original
manufacturer sources and why it is important for medical device engineers to
understand as they endeavor to repair and maintain medical devices at a reasonable
cost. This presentation will provide a set of guidelines for evaluating and
purchasing replacement parts in the context of the potential adverse effects of
using inappropriate parts or parts sources.
