Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to acquaint the student with the methods of effective risk management and the complete process from data collection, processing, analysis tools, and drawing conclusions. Content focus of the course is defined risk management systems in industrial and medical applications with an emphasis on clinical and economic effectiveness of decision-making processes. The resulting knowledge and skills are based on current trends, the introduction of innovative approaches evaluation processes in biomedicine, including its technical equipment. Students are able to define effective ways of managing risk. Students are able to define the role of the state in regulating the risks and the applicable legislation in the field of risk management in healthcare. Students can use the tools of risk management in healthcare.
Students will acquire theoretical knowledge and practical skills of effective risk management in the complete process from data collection, data processing, analytical tools to drawing the final conclusions. They will be familiar with the risk management systems related to technical scope within the medical applications with an emphasis on clinical and economic effectiveness of decision-making processes.
