Answer:

The various problems with patching electronics such as heart rate monitors and MRI machines that run embedded Windows OSs is that they have a certification which is usually at a specific revision level.

Another issue is that probably the maker or the manufacturer didn’t provide the patch method which would have been used to fix such electronics.
