[Clinical medicinal engineering support in disaster relief medicine].
Disaster Relief Medicine (DRM), a newly developed science, not only crosses Emergency Service and Critical Health Care, but also relates to other various fields such as Nursing, Clinical examination and Clinical Medicinal Engineering etc, all of which require competent Clinical Medicinal Engineers. Thus, a key subject of Clinical Engineering is to provide quality support to medical equipments, and to offer engineers educational training on this diverse science, in order to improve their professional and managerial skills. Based on DRM characteristics, specifically, based on our first hand experience during disaster relief effort in Wen-Chuan Earthquake, we documents our thoughts and discussion over the issues we found in above areas as listed in the article below.
