It is designed to enable the students to learn by themselves and/or by the guidance of their instructor, to discover new basic maintenance procedures, and terminologies, and to acquire new knowledge and skills in the maintenance of biomedical equipment. The practical workbook consists of six different chapters; Electrical Safety Test for medical equipment according to IEC 60601 standard, Electrical Safety Test for medical equipment according to IEC 61010 standard, Electrical Safety Test for medical equipment according to IEC 62353 standard, Plan Preventive Maintenance for medical equipment according to IEC 62353 standard, Operating and Maintaining Anesthesia Machine and Performance Test for Infusion Pump Machine, which are broke down into simple lessons, with accompanying activities and exercises.

The students may now share this knowledge with others who need the motivation to learn. Selected medical equipment is made for a simple and easy understanding of medical equipment activities. But being a person who possesses knowledge, skills, and attitude in maintenance technical activities is a different thing.
