Patient monitoring, display and testing equipment is becoming more accurate, versatile, compact and portable allowing for improved bedside treatment.
Such equipment includes blood glucose monitoring systems, insulin pumps, defibrillators, and neurological stimulators. Reducing the footprint of the components enhancesfunctionality in smaller spaces.
To meet this demand, device manufacturers are using pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) for interconnects, grounding and shielding applications. (For more information see the IDTechEx Research report Thermal Interface Materials 2016-2026.)
