English term or phrase: durable medical equipment

SENTENCE:
"Durable Medical Equipment – Certain medical equipment that is ordered by your doctor for use in the home. Examples are walkers, wheelchairs, or hospital beds."

I understand that we are talking about medical equipment that is for home use to help have a better quality of living.

SEE link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durable_medical_equipment

I am looking for the term used/official in French.
Any suggestions?

MERCI!
