Lithium ion batteries for medical devices application
Lithium-ion batteries are increasingly preferred in medical devices due to their high energy density, lightweight design, and long cycle life. These attributes enable longer operating times and shorter charging periods, making them a suitable replacement for traditional lead-acid batteries in medical equipment.
To ensure safety, medical device designs must adhere to stringent standards set by regulatory bodies such as the FDA and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). Standards like ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1 and IEC 62133 outline design, testing, and safety requirements for medical devices to mitigate risks such as thermal runaway in batteries. Some lithium-ion batteries are encased in ABS or metal housings to reduce the risk of battery expansion, leakage, and subsequent explosions.
Pictured on the right is one of our applications for lithium-ion batteries: infusion pumps. These portable devices enable nurses to administer infusions to patients anytime, anywhere, eliminating the need to be confined to infusion rooms.
12v medical battery backup for golf
“Battery-powered medical carts are indispensable in hospitals, providing healthcare workers with essential mobility. These carts are equipped with rechargeable or replaceable battery packs designed for 24/7 operation, allowing for quick battery swaps without downtime.
The primary battery type for these carts is 12V battery packs, though capacities can vary widely, ranging from 5Ah, 20Ah, 40Ah, and even larger. These batteries power onboard computers, monitors, and other equipment.
Due to their exceptional cycle life of over 2000 cycles, high safety standards, ease of maintenance, and compliance with industry regulations, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries have become the preferred choice for medical carts. LFP batteries offer a reliable and sustainable power solution for these demanding applications.
Types of batteries used in medical devices
A variety of battery types are utilized in medical devices, each with distinct characteristics and suitable applications. Here’s an overview of common battery types:
- Lithium-ion Batteries: With their high energy density, long lifespan, and lightweight design, 3.7V polymer or 12V lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries are widely used in portable medical devices such as infusion pumps, defibrillators, and handheld diagnostic tools.
- Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) Batteries: Offering a good balance between performance and cost-effectiveness, NiMH batteries are commonly found in anesthesia machines and surgical power tools.
- Lead-Acid Batteries: Renowned for their ability to deliver high currents over short periods, lead-acid batteries are often used in emergency backup systems for critical equipment like ventilators or dialysis machines.
- Primary Lithium Batteries: Primary lithium batteries, such as lithium/iodine, are frequently used in implantable devices like pacemakers, drug pumps, and neurostimulators. These batteries provide a long, stable power supply, reducing the frequency of surgical replacements.
- Coin Cell Batteries: Known for their miniature size, rechargeable capability, high energy density, and excellent shelf life, coin cell batteries are suitable for small medical devices such as glucose monitors and pulse oximeters.
The optimal battery choice depends on the specific requirements of the medical device, including power demands, portability needs, and budget constraints. We welcome your inquiries to determine the most suitable battery solution for your application.

FAQs for battery in medical field
The lithium in lithium medications and lithium batteries is not the same. Although they both involve the element lithium, their uses and chemical forms are entirely different.
Lithium Medications: In medications, lithium is typically found in the form of lithium salts, such as lithium carbonate. These compounds are primarily used to treat mental health conditions like bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. Lithium salts stabilize mood by regulating the connections between brain nerve cells.
Lithium Batteries: In batteries, lithium is usually present as lithium metal or lithium ions to provide electrical power. Lithium batteries utilize the chemical reactions and excellent conductivity of lithium to generate electric current. They are widely used in electronic devices, medical devices, and more.
