Dear community,
I am interested in power management in medical devices and am doing research on ventilators.
I have found through internet that most ventilators have an operating DC voltage of 12V or 24V. I also note that most medical AC/DC power supplies provide one of these four voltages (12/15/18/24). I would like to know:

- 1. Why those numbers specifically?
- 2. Are there pros and cons associated with picking one voltage level versus another? (assuming that buck/boost converter are readily available to transform the AC/DC voltage to desired levels.
