Hi Gary,
David Schaefer said on June 1, 2016, in this chain, the DOW (date of
withdrawal) for the 3rd ed. of IEC 60601-1-2 is December 31st, 2018. I am
pretty sure that is the correct info.
The knee is almost totally healed so working pretty normal hours now. Thx for
your note back in Mid June.
All the best,
Leonard (Leo) Eisner, P.E.
