Adoption of Digital Pen and Paper Technology (DPP) in Biomedical Technology

In recent years, Health Information Management Systems are integrated in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in order to ensure that the effectiveness and efficiency of Health Units (H.Us) are improved. The use of major Medical Equipment (M/E) in Hospital Units is necessary for achieving the best possible treatment. Digital Pen and Paper technology (DPP) is a useful ICT tool that aims to enhance the electronic registration and management of Medical Equipment of Biomedical Technology (BIT) Departments. DPP application can help to upgrade the quality of public health services, reorganize and simplify the internal medical processes and save time and costs during the daily nursing practices. Furthermore, DPP technology also promotes a better assessment and management of public health services with full transparency of financial procedures by using real-time monitoring of Medical Equipment. It can also be used for the improvement of accountability procedures of both Health Professionals & Biomedical Engineers, as well as the design of effective health financial policies.
