Project Biomed: We built the world's largest medical equipment service manual in 2 months
Virtually Maker Faire 2020
May 22nd-23rd
Biomedical technicians (biomeds for short) are the repair experts at hospitals, and in many regions they are stretched thin. There are a wide variety of machines made by a number of different manufacturers at hospitals around the world, and there is no single resource for how to repair all of them.
So we built one! With the help of 200 librarians and archivists from organizations around the world, iFixit collected and posted over 13,000 service manuals for ventilators and other critical hospital equipment.
