Biomedical Training

Formation

AFIACARE offers training modules for biomedical technicians, focused on maintaining the performance and electrical safety of the following medical devices:

  • Monitors
  • Defibrillators
  • Baby Incubators
  • Syringe and infusion pumps

Learning objectives

  • Identification with biomedical technicians of the subjects they wish to cover.
  • Identification of levels of theoretical understanding in order to adjust theoretical teaching.
  • Understand how the various medical devices mentioned above work.
  • Carry out curative and preventive maintenance on biomedical equipment.
  • Understand the operation of the test simulators and testers that are required to check the correct functioning and electrical safety of medical equipment.
  • Understand how to use test simulators and testers to check medical equipment for correct operation and electrical safety.

Tools

For the workshop sessions:

  • One patient monitor and one defibrillator provided by the trainer.
  • Provision of test equipment: Fluke ESA6212, Prosim 8, Impulse 7000 and the Fluke Incu, Fluke IDA5 for practical workshop sessions.
  • Training materials and performance monitoring test sheets will be provided.

During the course, time may be devoted to dealing with specific issues that course participants wish to address, up to a maximum of 10% of the total duration of the course.

A typical training program 

Example of a request from the biomedical department:

70 %

of the training time will be devoted to simulations and functional tests, as well as to the electrical safety of medical devices

30 %

of the training time will focus on the theoretical aspects : medical device function and test and simulation equipment

Training course location

The training can take place inside the hospital establishment or elsewhere, face-to-face, at the establishment’s charge.

Training program example

The course takes place over 3 days, with one day dedicated to each type of equipment:
