Biomedical instrumentation originated as a result of the need to monitor vital signs of an astronaut during the Apollo mission. It targets the use of biosensors to monitor the physiological properties of the human body. Also, it focuses on devices used to evaluate measure and manipulate the biological system.Modern Practical Healthcare Issues in Biomedical Instrumentationdescribes the designs, applications and principles of several medical devices used in the hospital and at home. The book presents practical devices that can potentially be used for healthcare purposes. It is an excellent resource for undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate students of Biomedical Engineering.
