Three medical doctors, each specializing in different areas,agree to set up a practice together. Suggest three (3) medicaldevices (one for each of the areas of specialization but notnecessarily to be used exclusively in one area) that the doctorsmay wish to purchase.
For each device,
i) justify why it is necessary for, and how it can be used in,the joint practice;
ii) explain why it is classified as a medical device;
iii) state, with justification, at least two different ways ofclassifying the device (for
example, diagnostic or therapeutic, and so on);
iv) identify the measurand and the source of the measurand.
b) Discuss three (3) factors for consideration in theprocurement of these devices. Part of
the discussion must focus on whether a cross-functional teamapproach to the procurement process is necessary.
Note:
You will need to select the areas of specialization of the doctorsbefore suggesting devices. Devices of Low Risk are not to be usedin answering the question.
