Clinical Engineering: A Handbook for Clinical and Biomedical Engineers, Second Edition, helps professionals and students in clinical engineering successfully deploy medical technologies. The book provides a broad reference to the core elements of the subject, drawing from a range of experienced authors. In addition to engineering skills, clinical engineers must be able to work with both patients and a range of professional staff, including technicians, clinicians and equipment manufacturers. This book will not only help users keep up-to-date on the fast-moving scientific and medical research in the field, but also help them develop laboratory, design, workshop and management skills.

The updated edition features the latest fundamentals of medical technology integration, patient safety, risk assessment and assistive technology.

Paul is currently lecturing part-time at three Universities and has a wealth of experience both within the academic and practical hospital environments that he is keen to apply. David Long, BEng (Hons), MSc, CEng, MIPEM, is a Clinical Engineer registered in the UK as a Clinical Scientist with the Health and Care Professions Council. He has over 20 years multi-disciplinary NHS experience in the field of rehabilitation engineering, specialising in the provision of postural management and custom contoured seating. Being a Chartered Engineer as well as a qualified clinician, Dave is particularly able to apply biomechanical principles to the assessment process, and to advise and assist with the more technical aspects of the required equipment. He is employed by AJM Healthcare who deliver a number of wheelchair services on behalf of the NHS. He also retains a contract with Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust where he teaches on the Oxford Brookes University accredited Postgraduate Certificate in Posture Management for People with Complex Disabilities. Richard Axell, BEng (Hons), MSc, PhD, CSci, CEng, MIPEM, is a Principal Clinical Scientist and Chartered Engineer and jointly leads the Urodynamics Group at UCLH NHS Foundation Trust. He is an Honorary Senior Lecturer at the Queen Square Institute of Neurology, UCL, London. He is Vice President External of the IPEM. He is a HEE/NIHR Integrated Clinical Academic Clinical Lectureship award holder. He is a specialist in clinical measurement with a focus on urodynamics and cardiovascular measurement. The UCLH Urodynamics group has a strong academic reputation working with the Female and Functional Restorative Urology group at UCLH and the Uro-Neurology group at Queen Square. He previously collaborated on the cardiothoracic heart transplant project that led to the first donation after circulatory death heart transplant in Europe. To date, he has published 18 peer-reviewed articles, 7 book chapters, and presented over 70 abstracts at national and international meetings.
