Decoding Medical Cables: Ten performance indicators for cables used in medical equipment

In the field of medical equipment, medical cables as the core transmission components, it is directly related to diagnosis and treatment accuracy and patient safety. According to industry observation, medical cables are commonly used in customized production mode. Compared with traditional cables, it has realized essential upgrades in structural design, material development, quality verification and other aspects. It also forms unique technical barriers. Common cables for medical equipment include cardiac lead wires, blood oxygen wires, sensing wires, and scalpel wires.

The following are ten core technical performance requirements for cables for medical equipment

In terms of Safety

1 1. Environmental certification: compliant with the safety standards

2 Biocompatibility: passed the third-party safety verification of cytotoxicity, skin irritation and sensitization test

3 Disinfection Durability: withstand 30 chemical disinfection cycles, logo and surface corrosion resistance

In terms of mechanical

4 Tensile Resistance: sheath material passes extreme tensile test, suitable for high dynamic medical scenarios

5Memory Restoration: automatically restores straight line shape after four 180 ° bends

6 Bending Resistance: the core wire shield does not short-circuit or break after bending 7 Torsion Self-repair: after two turns of twisting automatically restore 1.5 turns, refusing to cable knotting

8 Soft and crack resistant: special winding process to ensure that the surface is not cracked, to enhance operational flexibility

9 Low-temperature Toughness: -40 ℃ extreme low-temperature winding 4 hours without damage

In terms of function

10 Voltage and explosion-proof: zero breakdown of the insulation layer between the core wires under the rated operating voltage

The strict implementation of standards for medical cables not only protects the accuracy of signal transmission of medical equipment, but also constructs a physical barrier of safety for doctors and patients. With the development of intelligent medical care, professional medical cables will continue to provide fundamental support for industry innovation.
