Thermometer
It was successfully invented by the Thomas Clifford Allbutt in 1866. This thermometer has able to record a temperature in 5 min (Pearce, 2002). This divided used to the nature temperature and observed changes temperature in human body and it noted the increase of the pulse when temperature was high or low.

Sphygmomanometer: The Purpose of the project is Sphygmomanometers indicate a patient's blood pressure by measuring mean arterial pressure.
The first Sphygmomanometer was invented by Karl Samuel Ritter von Basch in 1881. It consisted of a rubber bulb that was filled with water to restrict blood flow in the artery. The working principle is, the bulb was then connected to a mercury column, which would translate the pressure required to completely obscure the pulse into millimetres of mercury.

X- RAY MACHINE
The First X-ray Machine is Discovered in the 1895 And it was founded by William Rontgen. Also, scientist created it to find the Crack of the bone and disease of T.B. Now, it’s consists two minutes and it consist very less time compare to past(Kemerink, 2020).
Kemerink, D. (2020, JUNE 6). X-ray machines in 1896 needed ninety minutes and 1,500 times the radiation. Retrieved from GIZMODO: https://io9.gizmodo.com/x-ray-machines-in-1896-needed-ninety-minutes-and-1-500-5784614?IR=T -
Ear Aid Machine
Miller Reese Hutchison developed the first electronic hearing aid, called the Akouphone, in 1898.What makes it unique about its basic parts which is A microphone, amplifier and speaker. The outcome of the hearing aids was people can able to hear thing easily and helps them to improve their social life and work life. It helps people to live better life.https://www.phonakpro.com/nz/en/products/hearing-aids/overview.html -
Project-1. First Eye Replacement Surgery-It was a planned project as when Dr Eduard Zirm saw someone dealing with Cornea Diseases.
The deliverable was the first cornea Replacement and it was developed by Dr. Eduard Zirm. It was unique as no one else in the world has developed or performed this type of surgery before. It was temporary as he decided to only perform one trial surgery for his theory. Link Text -
Plus Oximetry: The Purpose of the project is The medical device, which clips onto a patient’s finger, has saved millions of lives and is a vital tool in medical industry.
The Deliverable was the Plus Oximetry was founded by Takuo Aoyagi. Plus, Oximetry measured the way in which blood oxygenation is measured. It provides an accurate and relatively reliable non-invasive means for the continuous measurement of peripheral oxygen saturation in a variety of patients. The accuracy of Plus Oximetry depends on many factors, the clinical scenario and the machine.

Project 2. First Continuous Glucose Monitor System
The deliverable was the first Glucose Monitoring Machine and it was developed by Palmer Hermundslie, Earl Bakken. It was unique as no other CGM system was developed in this whole world. It was temporary as it was first sold in 1999. It was a planned invention as the manufacture owner was itself dealing with diabetes.Link Text. -
Wireless Brain Sensor
Neurosurgeons Wilson “Zack” Ray, MD and Rory K. J. Murphy, MD,develop tiny brain sensors that monitor pressure in the skull. Sensors which unveiled implantable wireless sensors that biodegrade within the body.The aim of this brain sensor is of securing the person from emergency situations.https://lifeboat.com/blog/2020/03/wireless-brain-sensors-a-breakthrough-in-medical-devices-industry#:~:text=Wireless%20brain%20sensors%20are%20devices,the%20person%20from%20emergency%20situations.
