Beskrivning

This volume provides insight into important hospital management procedures, the description of the most important clinical processes, and the correlation between medical equipment and optimization of the hospital's activity, both in terms of costs and quality of the services provided.Clinical Technologies and Processes: Management in Healthcare is Volume 1 of the Innovation in the Modern Hospital System - Electronic Bioengineering Telemedicine Artificial Intelligence book series. This volume features detailed analyses of 19 major medical technologies, from hemodynamic polygraphy to positron emission tomography, complete with integration guidelines and operational protocols. The content provides practical implementation strategies for hospital design, bioengineering applications, and telemedicine integration. The author provides insight into enhanced operational efficiency, improved technology utilization, and optimized healthcare delivery processes. Each chapter offers clear, actionable insights that can be immediately applied to improve hospital operations and patient care quality.The comprehensive nature of this book makes it particularly valuable for professionals who need to understand both the technical and managerial aspects of modern healthcare systems. It would be useful to healthcare students, bioengineers, clinical engineers, hospital directors and administrators, and medical specialists seeking advanced technological knowledge.
