  • Abstract
    Modern health-care delivery is becoming increasingly dependent on the contributions of engineering science and technology. The important and often critical need for such technological support has resulted in the establishment of a clinical engineering role at a number of hospitals. The literature quotes numerous examples of the contributions such a capability can make to the delivery of quality patient care.
