<p>Developing countries such as Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Indonesia and so many could not introduce clinical engineering professional (CEP) in health technology management (HTM) science. As a result, they could not establish the safe health technology management. Conversely, CEP has been introduced by developed countries in HTM for about last 35 years long and thereby established a safe health care system. We noticed the continual problem in the health care management system. To overcome this continual problem, we think that clinical engineering professional is very much necessary to proper implementation of health technology management in developing countries in order to ensure the safe health care system. CEP will train to HTM personnel and a safe health care management will be established in developing countries. The modern medical technology will be involved by the proper practice of HTM and CEP. This pioneer professional will keep the whole HTM with good functional condition. Therefore, we conclude that introducing of CEP is badly necessary to improve the existing unhealthy HTM as well as health care system of the developing countries.HTM personnel will understand the necessity of CEP as well as health care planners. This paper will guide to the existing personnel of HTM and help them to understand the importance roles of CEP. Among these counties, the health care technology management system seems to very problematic. Continually, it is observing that the health care technology management performance is twisting with the increase of sophisticated medical devices. Authors firmly believe that an excellent benefit can be obtained by introducing skilled clinical engineers in the health services of developing countries as Bangladesh. </p>

Health Technology Management

Medical device systems Clinical Engineering (CE)/Health Technology Management (HTM) strategies and best practices are now well established in most first world and many developing countries (DC).Progress is being made to address identified gaps in DC CE/HTM, such as appropriate equipment selection and lifecycle management. One contributor to this progress is the 25 years of CE/HTM Seminars provided by WHO-PAHO, ACCE, and more recently, IFMBE CED, to 80 countries. There is also a new emerging challenge; the requirement for medical device (clinical data) integration (MDI) into electronic health records (EHRs) to improve care quality and safety (aka CE-IT).This study will review CE/HTM progress, gaps, and new challenges since the last study in 2011. It will provide a framework to direct the global CE/HTM movement forward in collaborative fashion, alongside other initiatives in 2015, such as the 1st International CE-HTM Congress and the Global CE Summit held in Hanzhou, China, in October, 2015.
