Further seminars in an IHEEM series on the New Medical Equipment Installation Guidance Notes (MEIGan) will be held on 19 January at The IOM3, London, and the Great Barr Hotel, Birmingham, on 9 March. Much “must have” information will be presented.
The MHRS (the former Medical Devices Agency) has updated its guidance for the pre-installation of imaging equipment and it includes related issues concerning associated circuits in the patient area. The MEIGan document, now launched, includes pre-installation electrical guidance for imaging equipment and associated lighting and power circuits.
The seminars will introduce the new guidance, discuss practical issues relative to installation validation and testing and consider the relationship to associated circuits within the patient environment. The seminars will be of particular interest to hospital engineers, project managers and designers to raise their understanding of the issues involved. The events will be presented by Brian Mansfield, MHRA (the lead author of MEIGan document), Chris Holme, Estates and Facilities, DH (lead author of the Annex re GN7) and John Murray, Bender UK (supplier and installer of UPS and IPS Equipment).
