Summary/Abstract: This paper is focused on the reliability analysis of medical items by comparing of their reliability indices estimations in regard to three types of measurement items containing electronic and mechanical modules. The analysis is based on reliability block diagram approach and probability modeling through a Markov process. The basis of this research are statistical data obtained regarding operational events occurred during the system operation. The operational reliability indices estimations obtained, valid for the different types of medical items under study are compared for one-year-operation. As a result of the research, some practical recommendations regarding measures necessary to be undertaken for to increase the operational reliability of such items are suggested. The paper presents an extension of previous research concerning operational reliability of medical equipment.
