Any user of electromedical devices has the obligation to have them checked. Periodical electrical tests are necessary for patients’ safety; moreover, they are mandatory according to D. Lgs 81/08 (Consolidated text on job safety) as these devices are working tools to all effects and it is mandatory by law that the employer (owner of the medical centre or sanitary responsible) should schedule said tests.

The electrical safety test of all electromedical devices is important not only for the users but also for the patients. The electrical risks patients can be subject to are:
- Macroshock
- Microshock (ex. Patient undergoing cardiac catheter or any exam with probe or any other element that goes close to or inside the heart).
Depending on the intensity of the electric current, the physiopathologic effects on the human being are:
- Tetanisation
- Stopping breathing
- Ventricular fibrillation
- Burnings
The employer needs to periodically check the correct functioning of the medical devices; once a year in the group II environments, and once every two years in the remaining environments.
