And so they do. Perhaps what we should thank is no one device, but, rather, the brilliant minds that conceived and developed them.

Great contributions thus far! Thanks everyone. Keep them coming...
My personal favorite "medical devices" that I rely on for most of my waking hours, allowing me to use my computer, drive my car, and altogether see the world are my contact lenses. :) Marked as spam

Been in this space for 32 years and why I do what I do. www.integrasystems.org. From a cardiac perspective, DDDRR (pacemakers), AICDS, PTCA, stents, cardiac ablation, porcine/mechanical heary valves, and early 80's the Swan-Ganz thermodilution catheter. List could go on.

Contact lenses for myself -- having had bad eyesight since I was a little child. However, with a small nose and pretty much no bridge, this means my eyeglasses kept falling off! Contact lenses helped me a lot.
Ventilator, baby monitoring devices for my daughter -- Thanks to baby monitoring devices and an observant grandma people realized what was happening before it was too late within an hour of birth. She was placed in the ventilator and given antibiotics. At first they thought it was an underdeveloped lung, then it turned out to be a lung infection that the antibiotics treated well. I still remembered being numb coming out of the hospital and coming home without a baby. The medical devices and the antibiotics helped healthcare professionals save her life. Marked as spam

The OmniPod insulin "patch" pump, tubeless, with wireless PDM. This is an awesome device! Has changed the lives of insulin-dependent diabetics, especially children.
