Hi everyone. I am new to the field and to this group. Just took a job as biomedical engineering manager less than a month ago.

I have read somewhere that there is an American Hospital Association Guide on the approved life of different biomedical devices. However, I couldn't find that guide.

Is there any standard that, for example, prevents the use of a CT more than 10 years old? or a fibroscope more than 20 years old?
