A Prefatory Study on Role of Electrical Engineers on Healthcare
Abstract
Engineering has had a significant role in improving and servicing the healthcare industry. For decades, professional groups, institutions, scientific writers, and the healthcare sector have used the phrase "Healthcare Engineering." However, the term "Healthcare Engineering" is still a bit of a misnomer. The goal of this position paper is to define Healthcare Engineering as an academic discipline, a field of study, a specialty, and a profession. Healthcare Engineering is described by what it is, who does it, where it is done, and how it is done, as well as its goal, scope, themes, synergy, education/training, contributions, and future prospects.
