Recently, a blog reader and good colleague recommended a book to me that I consider to be particularly special. The book is titled "Medical Instrument Design and Development" and is written by Claudio Becchetti and Alessandro Neri. It provides a good overview of the design and development of an ECG device, from the initial idea through implementation to approval. This allows you to understand the interrelationships based on a real product and, so to speak, look over the shoulders of other developers. In my opinion, that's what makes this book so appealing. I recommend the book to all developers of ECG devices. But even if you have nothing to do with ECG devices, the book might be of interest to you. An ECG device is a relatively simple medical device that can be used to easily explain many aspects of development.
The book is divided into chapters
- System Engineering
- Concepts and Requirements
- Biomedical Engineering Design
- Signal Processing and Estimation
- Applied Electronics
- Medical Software
- C-Health
- Certification Process
In my opinion, the book, which has over 550 pages, provides a good overview of the development of a medical device using a real product as an example.

More information about the book can be found on the website http://www.gammacardiosoft.it/book/ The content is presented here in quite a comprehensive manner.
I'd like to thank Ferdinand Kerl for the book tip and the suggestion to recommend it here on the blog. I'm happy to do so, of course. The book was a welcome read on two long train journeys and a good refresher on a few topics :-)
