Abstract
A method is for generating a knowledge base useful in identifying and/or predicting a malfunction of a medical device. The method includes (a) providing virtual components, each corresponding to a component of the medical device; (b) creating a virtual model of the medical device using the virtual components; (c) rendering at least one virtual output parameter of the virtual model, based upon simulation of a malfunction of at least one of the virtual components; (d) providing the at least one virtual output parameter rendered, to the medical device software; (e) correlating a response of the medical device software to the at least one virtual output parameter rendered; steps (c) to (e) being repeated, based upon a plurality of different simulated malfunctions, and the plurality of different simulated malfunctions and responses of the medical device software correlated being used in the generating of the knowledge base on the medical device.
