Medical electronic market is growing at a significant rate due to advancement in the technology and increasing population and growing lifestyle diseases. In addition, rising demand for personalization of healthcare systems is increasing the global market for medical electronic devices.
Medical battery refers to an electronic device that is attached to the other medical devices for supplying electric energy to them. A medical battery consists of a cell or connected group of cells that are designed for receiving, storing, and delivering electric energy as required.
It is based on the principle of converting chemical energy into electrical energy. It involves reversible chemical reactions and may be charged again by passing current in opposite direction. On the basis of difference in configuration, medical batteries are of many types such as lithium ion (Li-ion) battery, nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery, nickel metal hydride (Nimh) battery and alkaline-manganese battery.
Various risks involved with the use of medical batteries are battery depletion, high internal resistance and battery leakage. Medical battery may be used with various medical devices such as pacemakers, infusion pumps and implantable cardioverter defibrillators. If required, more than one battery may be used for working of a single medical device. The global medical batteries market is driven by technological advancement in the healthcare facilities and improvement in the reimbursement scenario.
