Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Clinical Systems Engineering: New Challenges for Future Healthcare covers the critical issues relating to the risk management and design of new technologies in the healthcare sector. It is a comprehensive summary of the advances in clinical engineering over the past 40 years, presenting guidance on compliance and safety for hospitals and engineering teams.
This contributed book contains chapters from international experts, who provide their solutions, experiences, and the successful methodologies they have applied to solve common problems in the area of healthcare technology. Topics include compliance with the European Directive on Medical Devices 93/42/EEC, European Norms EN 60601-1-6, EN 62366, and the American Standards ANSI/AAMI HE75: 2009.
Content coverage includes decision support systems, clinical complex systems, and human factor engineering. Examples are fully supported with case studies, and global perspective is maintained throughout. This book is ideal for clinical engineers, biomedical engineers, hospital administrators and medical technology manufacturers.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
The evolution of clinical engineering: history and the role of technology in health care -- Clinical engineering in growing markets: the China case study -- Clinical engineering in developing countries -- Clinical engineering for consolidated markets: European case study -- Hospital technology management -- Management of complex clinical system --Decision support systems in healthcare -- Early stage healthcare technology assessment -- Integrated risk and quality management in hospital systems -- Management of new technologies: software and integrated systems -- Clinical engineering and disaster preparedness -- Human factors engineering in healthcare -- Clinical engineering education and careers: overview of the University of Connecticut -- Certification of clinical engineers.
