Originální abstrakt

Starting September 2007 a new first cycle study Bachelor programme in Biomedical Technology was initiated at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication, Technical University, Brno in response to EU directives defining the role of non-medical health care professionals. A distinctive feature of this programme is close co-operation between the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication and the Medical Faculty, Masaryk University, Brno. The rationale behind this collaboration is grounded in the need to enhance mutual understanding and inter-professional communication regarding biomedical devices between all professionals involved in patient care. The expansion in both the number and the complexity of medical devices has resulted in the fact that their full scientific, effective, safe and efficient use is increasingly moving beyond the scope of practice of medical doctors and other health care professionals. On the other hand biomedical technologists and engineers educated within traditional engineering programmes have often in the past been found to be unable to communicate effectively with medical practitioners using appropriate medical terminology. This programme seeks to bridge the gap between medicine and technology. This paper outlines the content of the programme.
