Magnetic sensors or basic switches in hospital beds determine bed adjustment beginning and end positions
Position sensors (SMART Arc) in hospital beds monitor backrest elevation which helps ensure the proper angle is maintained
Pressure sensors control a hospital bed’s air columns to help prevent patients from developing bedsores
Pressure sensors measure pressure in blood pressure monitors
Pressure switches in hospital gas distribution systems indicate to a control panel that the main pressure tank is empty and needs to be replaced
Thermistors monitor the incubator system’s temperature
Thermostats in patient warmers control or limit temperature

Pressure sensors monitor airflow rates to provide continuous positive or negative air pressure to prevent contamination
INFUSION, INSULIN, SYRINGE PUMPS
Force sensors detect blockage in the pump’s tube that delivers medication

Pressure sensors monitor and control the flow of fluid
Subminiature load cells monitor the weight of the IV bag

Force sensors detect the presence/absence/weight of a dialysate cartridge and monitor flexible tubing pressure
Magnetic sensors enable smooth motor control that reduces noise/vibration
Pressure sensors obtain dialysate and venous pressure measurements without interrupting flow
Pressure sensors monitor pressure in the cartridge’s flexible tubing
Thermistors provide enhanced temperature control of the permeation rate across the dialysis membrane
Thermostats control or limit temperature

Basic switches detect presence of covers, doors and cassettes to ensure safety in operation

Airflow sensors detect ultra-low airflow levels that sense when the patient exhales for efficient oxygen delivery
Oxygen sensors measure and control oxygen concentration level of the air mixture delivered to the patient
Pressure sensors detect when the patient begins to inhale for efficient oxygen delivery
Pressure sensors sense surge tank pressure for accurate compressor pressure levels
Pressure switches alert the user when the pressure exceeds a specified limit

Oxygen sensors measure oxygen concentration level of the air mixture delivered to the patient
Pressure sensors in nebulizers carefully monitor airflow rates so that the specified amount of medicine, amid a humid environment, is delivered to the patient
Pressure sensors in spirometers measure in/out patient airflow
Pressure sensors monitor blood pressure
Thermistors in temperature monitoring equipment monitor temperature

Airflow sensors monitor breathing and send an output to reduce airflow when the patient exhales
Bimetallic commercial thermostats on-board (stand-alone) devices on flexible heaters control temperature without adding associated software or electronics
Humidity sensors monitor the air to provide adequate moisture
Magnetic sensors enable smooth motor control that reduces noise/vibration
Pressure sensors monitor the delivered air pressure
Thermistors and pre-packaged temperature probes provide warm, moist air

Force sensors regulate a fluid management system’s pump head pressure
Position sensors (SMART Arc) and force sensors in robotically assisted surgery equipment control robotic arms that hold the articulated instrument tips
Pressure sensors (board mount and heavy duty) in surgical fluid management systems sense joint site pressure during arthroscopic surgery

Airflow sensors measure air and oxygen flow so the correct amount is delivered to the patient
Basic switches detect doors and covers to ensure they have been properly closed before operation
Humidity sensors deliver warm, moist air to the patient
Magnetic sensors enable smooth motor control, reducing noise/vibration
Oxygen sensors measure and control oxygen concentration level of the air mixture delivered to the patient
Pressure sensors detect when the breath changes from inhalation to exhalation to measure in/out patient airflow
Pressure sensors (heavy duty) measure inlet pressure from the hospitals air and oxygen supplies
Pressure transducers are used to test the ventilator’s air and oxygen valves
Thermistors monitor and control air temperature

Measure pressure in non-invasive blood pressure monitoring
