- Development of various educational tools for medical education
(1) Many medical devices that use electricity, such as defibrillators, AEDs, and electrocautery, are used in the medical field. If these devices are not used properly, they can cause electric shocks and burns. In this study, we investigate the electrical hazards associated with improper use of these devices.
(2) It is important to obtain information on patients noninvasively in blood purification therapy. We are developing and improving sensors such as urea sensor using chemiluminescence.
(3) In training clinical engineering technicians, it is necessary to provide various practical training, but it is not possible to use actual patients. Therefore, we are developing educational materials for practical training that can be used in place of living bodies. We are also developing educational tools that can be used in primary life saving seminars for the general public.
