1\uff09 Outline<\/h3>\n

In addition to doctors and nurses, other hospital staff members include radiological technologists responsible for X-rays, CTs and MRIs, clinical technologists who take care of blood and bacteria tests, electrocardiogram and electroencephalograms; and physiotherapists responsible for rehabilitations. \u201cClinical engineers\u201d (hereinafter referred to as \u201cCEs\u201d) are also medical technologists who work in hospitals. Nurses and other medical technologists who assist doctors are called paramedical staff. CEs are one type of paramedical staff and specialize in the medical equipment essential in current medical care. With further enhancement of the safety and effectiveness of such medical equipment the contribution of CEs to team medical care continues to grow.<\/p>\n

The clinical engineer system is relatively new. It was established in 1987 under the Clinical Engineers Act.<\/p>\n

The gist is shown below:<\/p>\n

\u30fbIt is a national qualification based on the Clinical Engineers Act established in May, 1987. (Promulgated on June 2, 1987 and enforced on April 1, 1988).
\u30fbIt is a professional medical position responsible for the operation and maintenance of life-support systems under the direction of doctors.
\u30fbCE helps to support the life of a patient as a member of a medical team using medical equipment, together with doctors and nurses.
\u30fbCEs are required to complete a course at a designated schools and pass a national examination<\/p>\n
