Medical Equipment Calibration Services

The medical equipment /instruments used in hospitals for monitoring and treatment of patients also require calibration in order to have confidence in their functioning and operation.

Medical equipment calibration is carried out to minimize the uncertainty in measurements, reducing errors and bringing measurements to an acceptable level. With repeated use and over a period of time, all equipment begins to degrade and that affects its accuracy and precision. In the medical device industry a drift in the measurement is found to be unacceptable. Regularly calibrating equipment will ensure that industry defined standards are met and that equipment is functional thus providing acceptable output.
