Medical Technology Management & Governance module (ME51014)

Medical Technology Management & Governance involves the systematic oversight and administration of medical devices and technologies within healthcare settings. This includes the acquisition, maintenance, and disposal of medical equipment, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and hospital policies.

Effective management ensures that medical technologies are safe, reliable, and available when needed, ultimately improving patient care. Governance encompasses the development and implementation of policies, procedures, and best practices to guide the use of medical technologies. It also involves risk management, quality assurance, and performance monitoring to ensure that medical devices meet clinical needs and regulatory requirements.

By integrating clinical engineering principles and leveraging data analytics, healthcare organisations can optimise the lifecycle of medical technologies, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce costs.

This holistic approach ensures that medical technologies are used effectively and sustainably, supporting high-quality patient care.
