The internet of things (IoT) has allowed for ubiquitous measurement. Infant incubator temperature is one of crucial parts that need to be measured, especially for the stability and uniformity temperature. Based on the interpretation of IEC 60601-2-19, we proposed measurement method using IoT with the message queue telemetry transport (MQTT). In the 10,000 packet, the result shows the quality of service (QoS) level 2 of the system has the highest delay, however it has the lowest packet loss data than the other QoS. For 1 hour, the uniformity result and stability can fulfill the standards. Uniformity of 32°C, the lowest difference is point C with 0.32 °C, and the highest difference is point B with 0.75 °C. Uniformity of 36 °C, the lowest difference is point B with 0.27 °C, and the highest difference is point C with 0.79 °C. The stability of 32 °C and 36 °C is 0.32 °C and 0.44 °C, respectively. Moreover, the Kruskal Wallis test shows the highest difference average from point M is point A and B. It occurred because of the point A and B located far from the heater part, so the point A and B colder than point C.

<p>Infant incubator is one of the most important medical devices for newborn survival, especially preterm. However, aside from its benefits, some irregularities can be found on the devices that could lead to infant mortality, such as temperature deviations. The problem can be minimized by testing the infant incubator temperature parameter in accordance with IEC 60601-2-19 standard. However, there are various types of temperature sensors for related tests. Therefore K-Type and T-Type Thermocouples are compared in order to provide recommendations for infant incubator testing. The measurement technique used were referred to the instructions stated in IEC 60601-2-19 sub-clause Stability (with tolerance ±0.5^oC) and sub-clause Uniformity (with tolerance ±0.8^oC). For K-type thermocouples, the highest stability results at 32^oC is -0.2^oC and at 36^oC is -0.4^oC, while the highest uniformity results at 32^oC is -0.1^oC and at 36^oC is -1.6^oC, with the uncertainty of 1.7^oC. For T-type thermocouples, the highest stability results at 32^oC is 0.4^oC and at 36^oC is -0.4^oC, while the highest uniformity results at 32^oC is 0.7^oC and at 36^oC is 0.8^oC, with the uncertainty of 0.3^oC. The results of the independent t-test showed a different average, where the T-type thermocouples was higher than the K-type thermocouples. In other words, T-type thermocouples could be recommended for infant incubators testing.</p>

ECG machines should be calibrated and tested to assure their accuracy. IEC 60601-2-25 standard described signals for calibrating ECG amplitudes and frequencies. The problem was this standard does not clearly describe the formulas of the calibration signals nor the complete database of these signals. The aim of this study was to get a database of ECG calibration signals for testing based on IEC 60601-2-25 standard clause 201.12.1.101. Data were constructed with a series of sinus function in Matlab software to simulate P, Q, R, S, and T segments. The data were visually and statistically compared with the data from commercial CTS database. Data were constructed for 3 different lead of 12 ECG calibration data. Four ECG calibration data with elevation or depletion ST segment were excluded from this study. This study demonstrated that these ECG calibration signals were slightly visually different and statically had differences in some of S wave and most of T wave. This data can be used by designers or manufactures, but for the testing laboratory is recommended using a commercial product.
