Expected Life of a Device
Expected Life of a Device
The time that a device is expected to remain functional after it is placed into use. Certain implanted devices have specified “end of life” (EOL) dates. Other devices are not labeled as to their respective EOL but are expected to remain operational through activities such as maintenance, repairs, or upgrades, for an estimated period of time.
