The COVID-19 pandemic has shown the importance and need for medical technology. Proper maintenance of medical technology is a real challenge in the healthcare sector today. These challenges, as well as other issues related to medical technology, are dealt with by clinical engineers today.
Clinical engineering is a multidisciplinary field that involves the application of engineering knowledge to solve issues in the health sector.
The Global Clinical Engineering Alliance (GCEA) is an international organization that brings together experts from around the world, with the common goal of empowering and recognizing clinical engineering as a profession and its unique contribution to improving healthcare outcomes.
Verlab Research Institute for biomedical engineering, medical devices and artificial intelligence has been part of the GCEA organization since this year. This partnership is a significant step forward for the recognition of the profession of clinical engineer in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In the coming period, experts from the GCEA organization will be available through the Verlab Academy module, offering medical and non-medical personnel specialized trainings aimed at improving the knowledge, use and management of medical technology in healthcare institutions.
