Abstract

Reliability test plans are critical to the success of any new electronic medical device or technology. The tests selected must be stressful enough to identify defects but also show a correlation to realistic use environments. The preferred test plan development approach is to use a combination of industry standards and Physics of Failure (PoF) techniques. This results in an optimized test plan that is acceptable to regulatory bodies, management, and users. But even the most streamlined qualification testing can take months or years, and can still result in a design that may not meet reliability requirements.
