[Reuse of disposable equipment. Medicolegal viewpoint].

Minerva cardioangiologica, 1996
The ethical foundation supporting legislation on medical devices deals with safeguard of both individual and collective rights in health care and protection; there is no ethical reason in protecting individuals from reuse of medical devices, if reuse can be proved safe and efficacious, and if it is a way to ensure provision of services otherwise ...

Revisiting the Evidence for the Reuse of Enteral Feeding Equipment in Ambulatory Patients: A Systematic Review

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, 2020
AbstractBackgroundThe reuse of enteral tube feeding (ETF) equipment is not recommended due to the risk of microbial contamination and subsequent risk of infection; however, this practice continues in many ambulatory settings. A systematic review of the literature was undertaken to review the evidence underpinning the cleaning and reuse of ETF equipment.

Remanufacturing and Reuse of Production Equipment at an Automotive OEM

2012
Remanufacturing of production equipment represents an opportunity to increase use productivity of components and materials of products. Make-to-order production has to consider recovered components already in engineering and design. In comparison to mere substitution in material supply, recovered components increase the yield of once produced products ...

MES: an expert system for reusing models of transmission equipment

[1988] Proceedings. The Fourth Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications, 2003
The modeling expert system (MES) aids in the generation of models for transmission equipment (unit) by reusing the models of existing transmission equipment. The concept of model reuse is based on clones. An existing model is said to be a base model for generating a clone (the model of a unit), if the transmission characteristics of the two models are ...

Design Knowledge Reuse Strategies for Complex Equipment Design

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012
Series products and variant products are the basic strategy for enterprise product development. Product designers reuse the knowledge, experience in the various stages of product development. The design reuse strategies for mechanical products are studied. The concepts of product design reuse level and product design reuse dimensions are presented. The

Challenges in Reusing Lithography Equipment for Multiple Generations

2007 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC), 2007
The capital investment for semiconductor fabrication continues to increase as pricing pressure for microprocessors is greater than ever. This profit margin challenge is especially taxing in the area of lithography as the increasing transistor count also drives an increase in the number of mask layers.

[Unintended events in anesthesia due to reuse of disposable equipment].

Ugeskrift for laeger, 1999
Two cases concerning reuse of plastic-coated introducers (intended for single-use only) for intubation of children are described. If breaks in the coating occur, the airway can be compromised and removal of the broken piece of the plastic-coating can the treacherous.

Optimizing the internal reuse of wireless network equipment

2013
Reusing high-value wireless network equipment can allow telecommunications providers to achieve both financial and environmental benefits. However, without standardized processes and tools to reuse equipment, the reuse process can be highly inefficient and a significant amount of reusable equipment may remain in inventory.
