Abstract: Infusion is the most used technology in hospitals. Given its widespread application, often in critical situations and by many users, infusion errors are frequently made, with some having severe effects. Here, Emmelyn Graham, Flow Measurement Engineer at TÜV SÜD National Engineering Laboratory and Elsa Batista, Head of Volume and Flow Laboratory at the Portuguese [...]

Abstract— The determination of measurement error of an instrument in the procedure of the calibration and the application of corrections are crucial for traceable measurements. The definition, however, of the measurement error may differ in various standards as has been the case for standards used in metrology and medical standards (ex. IEC 60601-2-24:2012 used for [...]
