They can make one that is far better than nothing and works for the average patient.
Medical grade equipment is more complicated than it has to be to simply accomplish the job.
Hopefully someone with the knowledge is coming up with a minimalist machine.
Better than taking people over some age off life support.

Then you’ll need to factor in the costs of lawsuits, because if a hospital uses something that isn’t considered medical grade, that will open them up to litigation.
