Medical Ac Isolation

Using AC Isolation Transformers to Ensure Safety …

https://www.digikey.com/en/articles/how-to-use-ac-isolation-transformers-in-medical-equipment-to-prevent-shock

The role of the isolation transformer is to allow the AC voltage to reach the operating product and its circuit (the load) while preventing flow of current through the user and back to the neutral line. This cannot happen because the isolation transformer does not have a wire from neutral to Earth, so the current will not flow through the user.
