Abstract
This paper deals with a simulation infrastructure for comprehensive testing of safety, security and performance of a specific medical device (TOF-Cuff Controller) being developed by RGB Medical Devices. The controller is designed to monitor and regulate patient’s blood pressure and muscle relaxation during operations. The controller is still at the laboratory testing level of development and needs to be fully accredited by national health-care agencies before practical deployment. By having a simulation infrastructure, we can study the Controller’s behaviour in various pre-defined test scenarios.
