Time for an Evolution in Anesthesia Drug Delivery
Since its inception, anesthesiology has centered its engineering research and development on volatile anesthetics—hence the ubiquity of the modern gas anesthesia machine and the resulting dominance of volatile anesthetics. Despite volatile anesthetics' preeminence, intravenous medications have become increasingly important components in anesthetic practice. This evolution invites a fundamental redesign of the anesthesia machine to include the latest best practices in the delivery of intravenous medications. (Source: Journal of Clinical Engineering)

A Review of Computational Fluid Dynamics in the Gastrointestinal Tract With Particular Application to Pancreatic Surgery
Computational fluid dynamics is used in clinical problem solving to provide increased understanding of the factors that impact and predict clinical problems. Clinically, computational fluid dynamics has mostly been used in vascular surgery but is increasingly being used in gastrointestinal tract surgery for difficult problems, especially pertaining to resection and reconstruction. We review computational fluid dynamic applications in the gastrointestinal tract and suggest that computational fluid dynamics can be useful in pancreatic resections to evaluate the factors contributing to anastomotic and pancreatic resection lea...

US Food and Drug Administration Seeks Input From Healthcare Technology Management Community on Medical Device Supply Disruption During COVID-19 Pandemic
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently seeking information from the clinical community about existing and anticipated disruptions in the supply of medical devices related to COVID-19. This information is important to FDA's fulfillment of its mission to ensure that healthcare providers and patients have continued access to safe and effective medical products. Insights from the clinical community, including clinical engineers and biomedical equipment technicians, bring device supply issues experienced on the front lines to FDA's attention so that the FDA can develop effective strategies to prevent and mitigat...

Assessing Security Operations in Healthcare to Ensure Quality Patient Care
Many healthcare organizations lack the necessary visibility to prevent cyberthreats and struggle to reduce the amount of time it takes to detect and respond to threats. This strain can significantly cripple patient care, risk patient safety and trust, compromise sensitive clinical data, and cause costly damages. (Source: Journal of Clinical Engineering)

Pharmacogenomics as the Foundation for Precision Medicine: Value Realized Across the Care Spectrum
Leaders who fail to develop a precision medicine strategy and undertake initial steps immediately are likely to find themselves woefully behind as others in the industry accelerate their efforts. Late adopters will put themselves at a disadvantage in their own markets, which grow more and more competitive each year, and miss a critical opportunity to improve outcomes and patient satisfaction with the care received.
