Objective: To evaluate adverse events associated with HPV in clinical settings. Methods: A questionnaire on the adverse events associated with HPV was sent to certified sterilisation service technicians (CSST) and certified sterilisation specialists (CSS), of the Japanese Society of Medical Instrumentation. Results: Among 774 replies, 472 facilities employed LTHPGP sterilisers. Of 472 facilities, 136 (28.8%) had experienced adverse events caused by LTHPGP sterilisation. Conclusion: In order to utilize HP sterilisation effectively, the safety of HPV should be carefully considered for patients and personnel engaged in central services.","PeriodicalId":223355,"journal":{"name":"The Japanese journal of medical instrumentation","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127099017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The REDEEM is an entry level curriculum of biomedical engineering for industrial engineers. This program is consisted of lecture and practical training. It is a unique opportunity to learn biology and medical basics by training such as the dissection instructed by doctors. The purpose of this study is to check demand and effect, and to act the curriculum. In this paper, we describes outline of the REDEEM, test of the courses, evaluation of the curriculum and development of the 2nd REDEEM. The evaluation was based on Kirkpatrick′s 4 levels of evaluation system, of which the reaction (level 1), learning (level 2) and behavior (level 3) levels were utilized. The results showed big demand and education effect of the REDEEM. Future prospect and the priority for recurrent education system in biomedical engineering were also discussed. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the recurrent education system in biomedical engineering is a potential aid for progress of biomedical engineering. This study was supported by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT).","PeriodicalId":223355,"journal":{"name":"The Japanese journal of medical instrumentation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116498585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
