Electrical devices are widely used in hospitals to monitor vital signs and diagnose medical conditions. Some key electrical devices used include ECG machines to monitor heart activity, blood pressure monitors, and ambulatory blood pressure monitors. These devices generally use basic circuitry with passive components like resistors, capacitors, and inductors powered by high voltage electricity. Electrical devices are essential for general hospitals, dental hospitals, eye hospitals and more to treat patients through measuring things like heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and detecting blood clots.
2. WHAT IS THE TERM “ELECTRICALS”
MEAN ??
• It is a field of Engineering that generally deals
with the study and application of electricity..
• It is the fundamental of Electronics and
electronical devices.
• It basically consist of PASSIVE devices such as
resistors , capacitors , inductors etc..
• It mostly works with HIGH VOLTAGE.
3. HOW IS IT USEFUL IN HOSPITALS??
• In hospitals we use basic instruments for
treating people that work with electricity..
• Those devices are of BASIC CIRCUITS
consisting of PASSIVE devices.
• EXAMPLES:
1. ECG MECHINES
2. BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORS
3. ABPM Etc…….
7. ECG..
• Also called “ELECTRO-CARDIOGRAM”
• An ECG records the electrical activity of the
heart. The heart produces tiny electrical
impulses which spread through the heart
muscle to make the heart contract. These
impulses can be detected by the ECG
machine.
9. ABPM
• Also called ” AMBULATORY BLOOD PRESSURE
MONITORING”
• Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
(ABPM) is when your blood pressure is
measured as you move around, living your
normal daily life. It is measured for up to 24
hours. A small digital blood pressure monitor
is attached to a belt around your waist and
connected to a cuff around your upper arm.
11. PULSE OXIMETER
• Pulse oximetry is a method for monitoring a
person's oxygen saturation (SO2).
• This is an electrical device that works with
high voltage of current.
