Course Description

Principles of Clinical Engineering. Hospital organization. Procurement policies. Setting up a clinical engineering department. Medical Equipment Maintenance program, Medical Device Directives and device classification, Standards and Safety and Performance issues, Principles of Clinical Engineering in Medical Engineering. The course will cover the technologies, tests and operation of a variety of clinical laboratory testing systems (biochemistry, haematology and immunology) and how they apply to a particular organ or system. The students will also be exposed to the underlying principles involved in the measurement of certain physiological parameters from some of the complex organ systems including the urinary, cardiac and gastro-intestinal systems.
