Today, approximately 20 thousand different types of medical devices and systems are used in hospitals. The number of biomedical devices and systems used in our country has increased 7 times in the last 20 years.
The need for staff with technical and scientific knowledge to carry out the design and development of biomedical systems and to take part in the efficient use of systems is increasing day by day. In addition to theoretical trainings, the fact that students receive practical training in an equipped laboratory provides an important preparation opportunity before field applications. The devices such as digital analog experiment set, multimeter and oscilloscope available in the Biomedical Technology Laboratory established for this purpose primarily provide the infrastructure to be used in the application stages of the basic department courses such as Circuit Analysis, Electronic Measurement Technique, Electronic Elements and Analysis, Fault Analysis and Troubleshooting, which are included in the curriculum to gain general electrical-electronic knowledge.
Biomedical Technology Laboratory Equipment
- KL-720 K&H Biomedical Measuring Instrument
- BM-805 (UL CAT IV Version) Brymen Digital Multimeter
- ETS-7000A K&H Digital analog experiment system
- ADS-1022B AA Tech 25 MHz 2 CH+1EXT 7' LCD Digital Oscilloscope
The Biomedical Measurement Setin our Biomedical Technology Laboratory performs various physiological signal measurements with 9 different physiological measurement modules. Medical devices, the physiological signals they measure, the measurement method and the sensors in its content are explained in a way that includes signal processing steps. Physiological signals from sensors are detected, amplified, filtered and ultimately the measured values are visualized on an oscilloscope or computer environment. It is used to develop students' knowledge, skills and abilities about Biomedical Systems.
