ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the current situation of the specialty setting and training program of Intelligent Medical Engineering (IME) in China.Methods:The information about the schools' name, year of opening, enrollment plan, training objective and curriculum was obtained by the website investigation and was statistically analyzed by Excel.Results:(1)A total of 48 universities set an IME major from 2018 to 2021, mainly in developed areas. The number of talent training was nearly 2 400 per year. (2)The information of colleges which established IME was acquired from 47 universities. Among them, 59% (13/22) of the comprehensive universities set the IME major in medical-related colleges. (3)The information concerning professional training objectives was collected from 40 universities and they highlighted the capabilities of big data intelligent processing and software research and development, and 12 of them also required students to master the capability of hardware research and development. (4)Computer science and technology, preclinical medicine, clinical medicine and biomedical engineering were the main disciplines of IME. The professional core curriculum mainly included computer language and artificial intelligence (AI) related courses.Conclusion:IME education has sprung up rapidly with the development of AI technology in medical and health field. However, the cultivation of IME professionals is still at exploratory stage. It is recommended that the national related departments should publish some relevant guidelines on the training orientation of IME.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the effect of curricular reforms of physical medicine and rehabilitation in medical engineering interdisciplinary on learning of eight-year medical students. Methods:The eight-year medical students studying Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in Tsinghua University in 2018 and 2019 were enrolled into control group (n = 20) and observation group (n = 18), respectively. The control group used routine courses and studied with teachers of rehabilitation medicine; while the observation group added neuroscience theory and new advances, the development of functional magnetic resonance and application in rehabilitation medicine, new technology and progress in medical engineering in the course, and studied with teachers of electronic engineering, mechanical engineering and medicine. Their performances were compared. The observation group was surveyed with self-designed questionaire. Results:The performance of paper test, general test and total test were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t > 2.694, P < 0.01). The questionnaire showed that the observation group could better understand the course of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and the development of medical engineering interdisciplinary crossing and translational research within physical medicine and rehabilitation, and they thought it was more necessary to study the new course after the curriculum finished (|Z| > 2.304, P < 0.05). The proportion of students who were interested and very interested in medical engineering interdisciplinary crossing and translational research within physical medicine and rehabilitation increased from 77.78% to 94.44% (P = 0.222), and the the proportion of students who were probably and very probably engaged in physical medicine and rehabilitation increased from 61.11% to 83.33% (P =0.043). Conclusion:The curricular reforms in medical engineering interdisciplinary crossing could raise the interest and improve the test performance of eight-year students with physical medicine and rehabilitation.
ABSTRACT
Since the outbreak of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia(NCP), hospitals have taken the fight against the virus as its own responsibility, and keep standing in the front line of epidemic prevention and control. The continuous input of anti-epidemic forces in hospitals also brings challenges to the medical supplies support, including the management of protective supplies and the maintenance of medical equipment. In the face of increasing security pressure, the medical materials support team broke the game on multiple fronts. Firstly, the team implements active material procurement strategy, sets material distribution priority according to risk level, releases materials uniformly based on stock and use, and implements traceability management of donated materials to ensure material supply. Secondly, centralized allocation management of equipment, emergency installation, advanced maintenance and emergency maintenance work is effectively completed. Thirdly, disinfection strategies for items and equipment are developed safely and effectively with the aid of disinfection equipment functions. At last, personnel management and training have been strengthened. These measures have provided strong support for the orderly prevention and control of the epidemic.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the bidding evaluation method of the active medical device to meet clinical requirements. Methods The present situation of bidding purchase and bidding evaluation methods were analyzed for the active medical device, and a new evaluation method was put forward with considerations on the device's characteristics as well as its advantages in technology and commerce. Results The method contributed to purchasing the device with the highest cost-performance ratio, which showed the technical advantages of medical engineering department. Conclusion The method ensures that the purchased medical device meets clinical requirements,and enhances the social and economic benefits of the hospital.
ABSTRACT
To study the effect of microgravity on peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO ) in rats, tail-suspended rats were applied to simulate microgravity environment. SpO and arterial oxygen saturation (SaO ) were measured by pulse oximeter and arterial blood gas analyzer (ABGA) respectively on the 14th day, 21st day and 28th day in tail-suspended group and control group. Paired -test shows that SpO was significantly lower than SaO in tail-suspended group on the 14th day ( < 0.05), the 21st day ( < 0.05) and the 28th day ( < 0.01). The ANOVA results shows that modeling time had significant effect on SpO value but no effect on SaO value in tail-suspended group. These results indicate that pulse oximeter may be not suitable for oxygen saturation test in microgravity environment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the construction of clinical medical engineering emergency support mode in medical rescue. Methods The deficiencies of emergency support mechanism were discussed from the aspects of support requirements, planning, personnel training, equipment and materials reserve. From the aspects of basic function mode, emergency support commanding mode, personnel allocation the framework design of the support mode was carried out with the principles of quickness, high quality, obedience and initiative. Results The mode completed medical emergency support mechanism and enhanced the efficiency of emergency medical treatment during disasters and etc. Conclusion Emergency support is of great significance for medical rescue, which has to pose emphases on military-civilian integration, research and planning.
ABSTRACT
