Medical Technology Overview

good morning or good afternoon to everyone so excuse me again for um necessary noises since I've been doing this recording right now in school and I have decided to record uh this discussion for the benefit of those students um who miss the who will be missing their classes on Friday because of the activity for the um welcome of the Freshman okay so this will be our topic too our second topic okay so previously we have um studied or we have discussed about the history of medical technology okay so from there you have already known um how Medical Technology started and then also all the Innovations and inventions by various um laboratory scientists or scientists who contributed for the um Improvement of medical technology education okay so for today we will be discussing about the medical technology profession so this is our topic too so our objectives for today is to discuss the practice of medical technology in The Clinical Laboratory and in other professional Fields so as you can see medical Technologies does not only um practice in The Clinical Laboratory but also can practice in other fields such as in the academe just like um what I've been doing I am a medical technologist but I am working in a university teaching Medical Technology students okay and also um we can also work as researchers and then so later on we will be discussing on what other job opportunities that a medical technologist can expect and then second is to understand the different functions of the organizations for medical technology so these organizations for medical Technologies are very important because they provide a continuing professional education and as we go on with our discussion we will be discovering all the different professional organizations that cater to the needs of medical technologists for our topic outline so this is supposed to be done um in our face-to-face classes but I I will still be doing this right now okay so young prick with nothing for example if you're in the in your home right now listening to my video discussion so let us assume that um you are in front of uh your professor in front of me and then by yourself you can answer the following questions that will be asked okay so and also for uh after the pre-quiz we will be discussing about the roles and responsibilities of medical Technologies and also just like what I have mentioned a while ago we will be discussing uh the different employment opportunities as for med tech graduates and other roles of other Healthcare practitioners in The Clinical Laboratory and then I have mentioned Professional Organization so these are Smith and other professional organizations okay and also I have already um uploaded the Q uh your assignment for topic two okay so that but by this time um you can already search for your assignment to be submitted on our next meeting okay so you don't have to prepare a sheet of paper or pedicated scratch paper so this is just an assessment a pre-assessment on how well do you know with regards to the medical technology profession okay so done so for the first question he or she is engaged in the work of medical technology so we have the choices here the phlebotomist numerical Technologies the Pathologists and the medical technician so just write your answer um letter A B C or D okay he or she is engaged in the work of medical technology next one he or she is engaged Naman solely in the collection of blood so like blood is it of phlebotomist a medical technologist a pathologist or a medical technician okay next one he or she is a graduate of medical technology with a board rating lower than 74.9 sonag board examination but um this student got a score of a bird rating score of lower than 74.9 percent is she a phlebotomist medical technologist pathologist or a medical laboratory technician the fourth question is it is also known as Republic act 5527 so this is a law okay so is it Medical Technology Act of 1969 Medical Technology Act of 1967 is it blood banking law or a Clinical Laboratory Act the fifth question I think this is the last what is the meaning of payment so payment is a Professional Organization for medical technologists so what is the meaning of a case of place finalize your answers and then we will be give I will be giving the answers for the five questions okay so let's start with a brick for the answers okay so for the question number one we have he or she is engaged in the work of medical technology of course the answer is a medical technologist but how about number two he or she is engaged solely in the collection of blood Sonic blood okay they only collect blood so definitely what we call her is a phlebotomist okay number three a medical technology graduate who took the board exam but got a board rating lower than 74.9 percent okay a medical Tech a graduate of medical technology um and then uh who did not pass so definitely because 74.9 percent is failed so uh those uh who failed and then got a score of lower than 74.9 can um register and work as medical laboratory technician okay so this person or this medical laboratory technician obtained a grade of less than 75 during the board exam okay um further uh during mtlb or the medical technology loss and bioethics that will be next semester with regards to the medical technology profession um we will um so at least we already have an idea once we are ready in the mid mtlb course and then the fourth one is it is also known as Republic act 5527 or the ra-5527 so it is the medical technology Act of 1969 okay this act or the medical technology Act of 1969 is an act which requires the registration again an act which requires the registration of medical technologists defining their practice and for other purposes so this is again under mtlb and under Republic act 5527 so this is an act that requires the medical Technologies to register okay so roster of medical technologists okay so because of this um the government also Define a new scope of practice for us medical Technologies and for other purposes right and then lastly what is the meaning of this is the Philippine Association of medical Technologies Incorporated or Inc Inc language Philippine Association of medical technologist Inc okay that is the meaning of vomit it is one of the Professional Organization of medical technologists okay so let's proceed to our discussion proper again class so sorry an apology is for the unnecessary noises okay so I'm so sorry for that unnecessary okay so let's proceed so when we say uh Medical Technology uh it uh it plays a crucial role okay we do not just collect blood okay we do not just analyze a specimen okay because we have uh four crucial crucial roles in the health sector okay so in the laboratory especially when we will be working in the laboratory we play a crucial role in the detection diagnosis treatment and monitoring okay so because we help the physician in diagnosing what his or her patient is to be tested and analyzed for example meron patients okay so of course the physician of that particular patient will subject the patient to laboratory tests a mcgregate questionna different laboratory tests for example cholesterol and triglycerides okay so for that uh the request is already on our hands okay laboratory request so what we will do is to collect sample to be able to test for the sugar for the cholesterol and for the triglycerides of that particular patient and after that or we will analyze and process the specimen and afterwards we already have the result we will be giving the result to the patient and the patient will give the result to the doctor and because of this result that we released to the um to the patient and to the doctor we help the doctor to detect the patients okay so from there and then after that that particular doctor can already give treatment can already give medicines to the patient for treatment and then afterwards request of uh blood sugar blood sugar test okay FBS fasting blood sugar okay monitor if the if the treatment that he has given to that particular patient is effective medical Technologies The Physician cannot be able to diagnose and detect the diseases of our of their patients next one so what are the rules and responsibilities of medical Technologies I have mentioned young law okay this is the medical technology Act of 1969 or the Republic act or ra-5527 so according to this law the medical technologist um has four functions okay so medical Technologies can perform the collection and preservation of patient specimen okay so we will be collecting the specimen and after that Hindi language specimen the patient okay we have to process it and also we are responsible for the storage of that particular specimen for example Hindi attempt to preserve the specimen okay ref okay so Hindi language responsibility not and this will just be the start of our responsibility as medical technologist okay so second one okay and then the second one we will already be performing The Clinical Laboratory Testing okay and then afterwards we also have to perform the quality control procedures in The Clinical Laboratory meaning we have to um make sure that the results that we are releasing to our patients and to the doctors are accurate and precise accurate and precise results by quality control okay through quality control and we have to make sure that the reagents that we are using are not expired classes okay another one uh under quality control is we have to make sure that the instruments and the equipment that we are using are running and in good condition calibrated right and then lastly the medical technologists according to ra5527 can perform special procedures so basic procedures FBS chemistry test okay special procedures for example molecular bio okay your molecular rtpcr uh special procedures okay okay next one number one ra5527 under number one the medical technologists perform the collection and preservation of patient specimension patient specimen okay so we uh blood specimen usually uh we uh we collect various specimens usually is blood okay blood specimens are commonly collected by either of these two methods okay by either venipuncture or the capillary Pam sure again the blood specimens are commonly collected by either venipuncture or capillary puncture blood through the process of venipuncture blood through capillary puncture okay as you can see in the picture this is the process of collecting blood from a waves okay aside from class other um other locations and with proper training see medical technologist okay but usually the collection of blood uh using the venipuncture method is from Avid Veni meaning and then class once we have already collected the specimen the blood the blood collected through venipuncture are placed in blood collection tubes so these are examples of blood collection tubes okay these tubes are called as vacutainer tubes vacutainer tubes okay okay the images that you can see these these different colors of test tubes are called as vacutainer tubes okay these are color coded as you can see green red violet black gray and so on okay so this contains anticoagulant so this anticoagulants prevents the blood from um clotting for uh for some of the tests that are to be done in The Clinical Laboratory the blood should not be um should not be clotted okay so it should contain an anticoagulant so for example okay the light blue top contains sodium citrate as an anticoagulant which is used for coagulation studies such as Prothrombin time and aptt another example is the purple the purple top or the lavender Top This contains ETA or EDTA which is usually used for hematology testing of the specimen okay as we go on with um with our discussion and then also as we progress no uh in mlsp2 you will also know the different anticoagulated tubes which and also the different laboratory tests that uses this various vacutainer tubes we are collecting blood through uh through the uh through the vein okay so we have two types of venipuncture we have the syringe method and then another uh type of venipuncture is the evacuated tube system or the ATS so let's proceed first with the syringe method so from the word itself syringe it uses a syringe okay it uses a plunger to extract the blood sodium plunger it to you medical Technologies for the collection of bloody OMG patient okay so the collected blood coming from the syringe method is transferred to the tubes f2c tubes okay next one is the evacuated tube system okay it's evacuated tube system or the ETS it uses a tube holder and an ETS maybe also marriage tube holder and then on the end part we have the etsdel so um vacuum contains vacuum inside um and then the tube uh um needle automatically blood coming from the patient's vein maroon vacuum automatic okay so that is the evacuated tube system so this Arrangement the collected blood is transferred to the tube you can transfer the blood through this tubes or prepared in plain tube plain tube glasses usually um which is usually used for chemistry tests but in other tests which do not require serum but rather plasma okay coagulated meaning presence of anti-coagulant so let's proceed with capillary we can collect blood through the method of venipuncture and capillary puncture okay we have two types of any puncture we have the syringe method and the evacuated tube system or EPs and next one we have the capillary punctuary capillary puncture we uses the finger okay we use as either the finger kapag child or adult young patient or the hill or young patient if the patient is a newborn newborn C patient so if you are familiar with the um with a blood sugar tests okay to get blood any time of the day um fingers so that is called the capillary puncture okay so we use the finger again we use the finger to puncture for the capillary puncture for children and adult patients and what if couple newborn's a patients through the hill or young newborn and then since blood that we can collect compared to the venipuncture so this time we also uses blood collection tubes but this time instead of the um instead of the young among evacuating we use the microtainer tubes or the micro collection tubes micro ibix vacutainer tubes then next one according to ra5527 the perf the medical Technologies can perform Clinical Laboratory Testing okay so we have various uh pests in The Clinical Laboratory so we have the examination of tissues secretions and excretions we also perform blood banking procedures and also parasitologic mycologic and microbiology techniques histopathologic and cytotechnologic techniques and the hematologic procedure so as we go on with our discussion is right next okay so let's proceed with the examination of tissues secretions and excretions so commonly a medical technologist will collect blood will be collecting blood all the time okay so blood is a fluid uh that is or that uh that is it is a specialized body fluid which has four main components meron champlasma the red blood cells the white blood cells and the platelets okay so see blood has many different functions which include the transport of oxygen and nutrients to the lungs and other tissues and then uh it forms blood clots okay so this is very significant because these blood clots prevent excess blood loss it is the body is preventing uh excessive blood loss so common blood tests that usually uses blood or complete blood count or young CBC okay and also the chemistry test so under CBC we have you um hemoglobin hematocrit white blood cell count RBC or the red blood cell count and young platelet count okay and then for chemistry test Naman we have the fasting blood sugar um total cholesterol triglycerides creatinine blood uric acid blood urea nitrogen and maramipa under chemistry test okay examination of secretions okay so what is the difference between secretion and an excretion okay so a secretion secret okay secret secretion these are useful substances that are produced and released from a cell or a gland for example example of secretions or hormones and enzymes okay and then for example another is a the pancreas which secretes insulin for Young's a regulation of blood sugar or blood glucose in the blood problems um diabetic okay because the diabetic patients does not secrete insulin blood sugar problems because pancreas is the one that secretes insulin another example of a secretion or the thyroid hormones the thyroid hormones which are produced by the thyroid gland okay the thyroid hormones for example are the T3 and T4 paraces metabolism so when we say metabolism it affects the growth and development of a person so another another example of a hormone is the testosterone testosterone is produced by the testes of the male okay so and also testosterone but in smaller amounts which is also secreted by the ovary okay so the testosterone is the male sex hormone that regulates the reproductive development the sexual function and the muscle mass okay another one is the another hormone example is the estrogen okay the estrogen um testosterone is the male sex hormone the estrogen is the female sex hormone that regulates the menstrual cycle and the bone health of female examples secretion enzymes okay so anusi enzymes so these are biological catalysts these enzymes speeds up the chemical reaction this is also for metabolism so example of enzymes are amylase amylase okay which can be found in the saliva and pancreatic secretions so this amylase it breaks down starches or the carbohydrates into simple sugars another example of an enzyme is the lipase okay so it is released by the pancreas and in uh release also in the small intestine so the purpose of this lipase is to break down the fats or the lipids into fatty acids and glycerol I get uh next one is the excretion okay excretion are useful substances which are produced and released these excretions they are removed from the body because they are waste materials secretion I excretion sorry excretion excretion these are usually waste materials waste materials so we have to remove them example is okay so they may be hard they are harmful if they are not secreted or excreted rather in the in our system because we no longer need them okay another role of a medical Technologies is the performance or the medical Technologies performs blood banking procedures so some blood banking procedures this ensures the safety of both the patient and the donor it causes a blood bank class we will also be um assessing uh the donors okay and then the donated blood are later on processed and tested for um infectious for infections such as HIV and other and malaria and other infection and other infections okay and we have to make sure that the blood that we are transfusing to the patient are safe okay the performance of blood banking procedures ensure the safety of both the patient and the donor so under blood banking okay we collect the blood from the donors and then also after that we also do the blood typing type A type B type O A B and also cross matching this cross matching is very crucial because we have to make sure that the donor's blood is much better patient's blood to to be able to um ensure the safety of the patient so aside from blood banking procedures we also perform parasitologic mycologic and microbiologic techniques so in part acetyl uh in the parasitology techniques this is under parasitology wherein the common um sample that we test here are the is the stool sample okay so when uh when we test the store samples we we detect possible parasites or worms that may be infecting the patient causing the infection to the patient by the use of his or her stool sample and also under mycologic Noman these are about fungi and also we perform microbiologic techniques so this microbiologic techniques are usually done in a microbiology section of the laboratory so under microbiology we do the bacterial kosher and the gram staining so let's proceed with bacterial culture this is a microbiologic technique that is to isolate grow and grow and also identify the bacteria like for example you are suffering from a urinary tract infection or UPI and then you went to the hospital to consult your doctor and then the doctor will request you to go to the laboratory for a urine test and after that it you will be given the antibiotics that you should take for at least one week and then afterwards after the series of medications you are required to go back to the patient to The Physician for another checking infection and then unfortunately infection after seven days antibiotic that was given to you is not or was not effective so it was not able to kill the bacteria so the next thing that the physician will do he or she may request a bacterial culture of your urine so Pina performed nothing and as you can see in the slide so you know isolated bacteria that is causing your UTI and then after that after growing the bacteria we will be identifying the specific bacteria that is causing the infection another routine test that is performed in the microbiology laboratory is gram staining so this helps us classify bacteria as to whether that certain bacteria is ground positive or negative so this is used to identify the gram classification of a bacteria so popular whether it is gram negative or gram positive so under the microscope a gram positive bacteria may appear purple or Violet under the microscope or if a bacteria is a gram-negative bacteria it will appear as pink Under the microscope this also helps us to describe the morphology or the appearance of the bacteria and to classify this bacteria whether they are caucus or bacillus so we we can classify them if they are Cocos or bacillus based on their shapes okay so if the bacteria under the microscope looks like a spherical or rounded shape we refer to it as caucus or coxai okay so if it is red shaped Naman red shape it we refer them as bacillus or bacilli again if a bacteria is ground positive it looks purple or Violet under the microscope while if it is gram-negative it will look pinkish under the microscope and a classification is either a bacteria is a caucus or bacillus we will base on the shape of the bacteria when we see them under the microscope so if it is a glucose or a cocci it is round shape or spherical in shape and if it is bacillus or basili it is broad-shaped in shape okay another is the performance of histopathologic and cytotechnologic techniques so biopsy specimens are processed and stained to analyze whether they are malignant or benign so usually if the cells that were seen under the microscope or were process are cancerous or not okay whether they are malignant malignant cancerous so this biopsy specimens are specimens which were taken from a living body okay even difference autopsy and biopsy okay biopsyon and tissues or specimen which are analyzed and stained whether they are malignant or benign during biopsy and for autopsy autopsy so this one class under the microscope we just process and stain the the specimen that were taken from the person as medical technologists know we all we only process and stain the cells or the specimens that were taken from the patient or the pathologist and then next one is we perform hematologic procedures so under hematology we prepare blood smear as you can see in the first picture this is the picture or an image of a Vladimir preparation so we prepare this one we prepare the blood smear to be able to identify ditusa another picture lymphocyte eosinophils platelets basophils okay so under the microscope after staining the blood smear preparation okay the blood smear that you have prepared we will be staining them and we will be viewing them under the microscope to be able to count the cells that are contained in that particular blood sample so class we will also be teaching you how to prepare the blood smear the proper blood smear the proper preparation of a blood smear in mlsp2 so that will be on your second year second sem and then also uh we perform quality control procedures in The Clinical Laboratory so quality control so remember this one quality control ensures the accuracy and precision of the results through constant monitoring of the testing process I have already mentioned quality control okay previously so to be able to ensure that the results that are being released to the patient and to The Physician are accurate and precise we have to submit our uh reagents and also our equipments to Quality can't control okay so the more in the uh You observe quality control the more Namaste maganda the more in a mass accurate and precise young test results that you are giving the patient and if uh if you have released accurate and precise some uh results you are also helping the physician to diagnose and treat the patient properly okay so the this is the difference between accuracy and precision so when we say accuracy the result is accurate this means that uh it means it is how close a result to the true value for example the True Value should be 10 okay so when we can say that the result is accurate when the the result that you got is very close to the True Value which is 10 okay so accurate is nine or eight or padding seven but hindisha accurate it is quite far to the True Value which is 10 okay so this means that the results are close to each other okay or for example the result should be 10 10 so your result more should be 9.5 9.75 9.25 okay so that is precise so this is another example okay so this the first um figure the first figure on your left side is accurate and precise okay they are close to the true value and the results are also closer to one another young foreign so the next one is it is not accurate because accuracy classes I okay so it is not accurate because the four dots the four black dots that you see are very far from the bullseye but it is precise because the four dots or these four dots represents your results okay these four dots are precise okay because they are closer to each other okay another example is the third image so this is accurate again if it is accurate you base it on the Bull's Eye on the middle part okay it's the very middle part this is accurate because they are still closer to the True Value okay closer to the bullseye but they are not precise because as you can see the four black dots are very far from each other okay another example is the last one on your right side is it is not accurate and also not precise a true value and also the four dots the four black dots are very far from each other okay so that part you have to make sure that um all the results that you will get are accurate and precise and you can achieve that by performing quality control in The Clinical Laboratory and also we perform special procedures so these are Advanced Diagnostic equipment that may be operated for molecular and nuclear Diagnostics and clinical research so Ito for example molecular rtpcr and then our other um Advanced equipments the nuclear Diagnostics so this require a special training then so this special procedures also require or require special training before you can be able to perform them okay so you need to um you need to attend trainings and seminars to be able for you to be uh to perform such procedures okay so what are the employment opportunities for medical Technologies okay can they also work in the corporate world can they also work in the academic okay so we will um find out uh in the succeeding slides so under the CMO CMO number 14 series of 2006. this is a law okay the law is CMO number 14 series of 2006 okay the medical Technologies has the following fields of practice again in Clinical Laboratory practice okay so again normally the medical technologist Works in a Clinical Laboratory okay and then also education or the academic University okay we can also work here as Educators in the academe or in the university and then under specialized Fields mug work in a medical legal Laboratories um whether the for example um there is a rape case Okay and then they want to find out if that particular victim uh is a victim of rape or was raped by for example uh by her neighbor okay so it's best nothing and for the presence of sperms okay so DNA samples so these are specialized pills and again they also require proper training and certifications and then another we can also work in the drug testing Laboratory medical technologist Works in a drug testing laboratory he is he or she is called as analyst again if medical technologist is working in a drug testing laboratory he or she is called as analyst whether the particular specimen given by the client or what we call the patient here okay is positive or negative for the presence of drugs again certification before you can work as analyst in a drug testing laboratory just the same with HIV and AIDS testing laboratory not all medical technologists can right away work in the HIV or Aids Testing Laboratories certification and training before he or she can work in the HIV AIDS testing laboratory and then specialized Fields is also under information system usually dunsa information Hospital okay and also quality management system and lastly research opportunities research because since we are also under the medical field so it is also very beneficial to all of us to submit ourselves to research on your third year you will be having your research subject because we will be teaching you the proper way on the proper way of writing a research paper next one are The Clinical Laboratory Personnel who are these Personnel palage Clinical Laboratory the first one is the pathologist which act as the head of the Clinical Laboratory so the pathologist is the head of a Clinical Laboratory so usually the pathologist is a registered physician who is especially trained in laboratory medicine methods physician Hindi best of Basta Physicians as pathologist aside from being a registered physician that physician is also trained in laboratory medicine methods before he or she can be a pathologist in a Clinical Laboratory then so a new Young function usually in the pathologies inside the laboratory he or she counter checks the work done by the medical technologist so if you can observe the result form that is released by the laboratory merum's signature C medical Technologies and merum signature DNC pathologies okay so we have to make sure that the result form that is released by the lab meron dapat's signature of both the medical Technologies and the Pathologists okay again the signature of the pathologist is affixed in every result that is released by the laboratory next one is the medical laboratory technician so unusual young functioning medical laboratory technician so he or she assists the medical Technologies or the Pathologists okay assistant okay this medical laboratory technician on the first part of our discussion failed the med field the medical technology board exam for but obtained a general rating of at least 70 percent so passenger is 75 okay 74.9 and Below until 70 he or she can work as a medical laboratory technician okay so foreign Medical Technology board exam should be at least 70 to 74.9 before a person can work as a medical laboratory technician and again before he can work as a medical laboratory technique he or she must be certified or registered with a professional regulatory board is a certified certification another is the phlebotomist so this was the uh one of the answers to the question that was given before we started with a discussion with a discussion okay so this phlebotomist is the one that is uh collecting the blood sample so kayama is solely because the phlebotomists only collect the blood samples blood samples in the Philippines this is uh phlebotomy is a part of the usual specimen collection that is done by the medical technology so we will be teaching you on the proper specimen collection and under mlsp2 the title of mlsp2 is phlebotomy so purely phlebotomisha and this is uh Incorporated in your course uh in medical technology whilst abroad high school graduates so this high school high school graduates will be trained and will be given a phlebotomy training program before they can be able to be a phlebotomist in a certain clinic or laboratory or a hospital next one is a Saito technologist a cytotechnologist can also be called as a cell processor a cyto meaning cell okay cytotechnologies is also called a cell processor this cell processor works with a pathologist to detect the changes in the body cells by the cells cell cyto Technologies okay so these are important to diagnose disease so the pathologist um observe if there are abnormal changes in the color sizes and shape of the cells on the image that you can see these are genital smear or the pap smear which are the most common specimen that the pathologies and the cell process are examine for the detection of cervical cancer okay so they specialize in the examination of cells under the microscope in the detection of the abnormalities or diseases particularly in cellular samples like the pap smear okay and also next one is the histo Technologies when we say histo Technologies he or she is also called a tissue processor histo meaning tissue okay so this histo Technologies is responsible for the routine preparation processing and staining of biopsies kanina I have mentioned biopsy and other tissue specimen so this uh tissue processor are responsible to prepare the tissue specimen for microscopic examination by the pathologist okay so they process tissue samples obtained usually from biopsies okay biopsies or from surgeries and then embed them embed them in a paraffin wax and then you will they will also be cutting the thin sections or to be able to put them in a slide and then after putting them on the slide they will be staining and mount them for analysis is of the pathology so during your third year you will have your um subject histopathologic techniques for this so we will you will be um taught on how to prepare the sample how to process them uh how to stain the different tissue specimens okay so this what you can see now is the microtome knife okay this is a microtome knife which are used by the tissue processor another is a nuclear medical technologist so they administer radioactive drugs to the patient using Imaging equipment okay so record the images of the radioactive material in the body so usually classes chemotherapy okay medical technologist and they are called as nuclear medical Technologies patients so let's proceed to the professional organizations for medical technologists the first professional uh the professional organizations so these are organizations of professionals such as the medical technologists within a particular specialization or professional field so Maryland Professional Organization among accountants organization Engineers doctors okay so this is based on the specialization or the professional field uh or or the professional field of various professionals so professional organizations they aim for collaboration networking and professional development so-called collaboration and networking they create uh linkages with other Professionals in the field so they collaborate with other Professionals in the field and then under professional development Naman is um for the continuing professional education so we can achieve this continuing professional education through seminars and trainings that are given by our professional organizations like for example because we need uh to submit ourselves to continue our professional education to attend seminars and trainings even if we are already a medical technologist these are required okay there is a required number of units for uh for us to be able to renew our licenses we need to attend regularly all these seminars and trainings until we come up with a certain number of units in order for us to renew our licenses seminars and training the first Professional Organization is the Professional Regulation Commission Professional Regulation under professionals accountants med tech Engineers doctors and so on okay so this organization regulates and supervises the practice of professionals professionals or under the PRC okay this PRC implements the regulatory policies for the licensing of professionals they are the ones that they are giving licenses to us medical Technologies to the doctors to do accountants to the professionals right and then they also they are also the one that are conducting our board exams licensure exams Philadelphia then of course when we are already in the practice of our profession um perfect Agency for example no a medical technologist um violated violated a certain guideline for example the falsify Channel resulta instead of putting a positive drug test result is negative okay and then the PRC will be the one to investigate that complaint that was made against that medical technologist and then under the PD PD 223 PD 223 or the presidential decree 223 the PRC or the Professional Regulation commission was created okay again under the law which is the presidential decree 223 or the pd223 the PRC was was created okay PRC was created in June 22 1973 okay again PRC was created in June 22 1973 under the law PD 223 okay PRC class is attached to the Office of the President next one these are the accredited professional organizations in the Philippines so it is a professional Society Julie accredited by the Professional Regulation commission so professional organizations in the Philippines uh should be accredited by PRC Hindi pasta professional organizations professional organizations Professional Regulation commission only PRC so we have two accredited professional organizations in the Philippines we have the Philippine Association of medical technologists or the Philippine Association of schools of medical technology and public health Inc okay first let's talk about pamel okay payment is the National Organization uh four registered medical Technologies in the Philippines so the founder of palmett is chrysanto G almario it was founded the Palmetto was founded by crisanto almario in September 15 1963. okay Mario is considered as the founder of Palmetto okay the founder of palmett is chrysantoji almario it was founded in September 15 1963. cayasi crisanto El Mario is considered as the father of Palmetto istan collected the founder is chrysanto almario he was called as the father of Palmetto he was the one who founded the organization in September 15 1963 right and then the first president president in September 20 1964 during this September 20 1964 uh the First National Convention and election of officers for permit was done okay election in September 20 1964. see charleming tamundo uh one that was elected as the president convention was held in Far Eastern University so the current president of pamet now okay the current president of Palmetto now is Luella a virtuio so we have two accredited professional organizations in the Philippines we have palmett and the past map okay okay this is for registered medical Technologies this is the organization for registered medical Technologies based from the word schools okay these are the Professional Organization of schools that are offering medical technology or medical laboratory science in the Philippines okay again these are organizations for registered medical Technologies these are the Professional Organization of schools that are offering the course of medical technology and medical laboratory science in the Philippines was formally recognized as the only accredited Professional Organization of registered medical Technologies in the Philippines okay so um logo if you can observe now a payment logo Circle device okay so the circle in the logo so logo means that uh means continuous involvement work practice and education must always be integrated okay Circle the circle logo the circle in the paramet logo signifies continuous involvement or practice in education must always be integrated okay so another is the triangle triangle it signifies the trilogy of love respect and integrity triangle means Trilogy of love respect and integrity so how about the microscope okay microscope microscope and the snake the microscope C snake Okay microscope and snake means the science of med tech profession or the medical technology profession again the microscope and the snake signifies the signs of medical technology profession collard green was chosen because it means the color of Health okay next one we proceed with passmail okay so is not recognized National Organization of recognized schools of medical technology and Public Health in the Philippines okay this was uh Smith was established in May 13 1970 okay established in May 13 1970. okay so young Founders yeah okay Founders now or Dr Sarah fin Juliano of feu and Dr Gustavo Reyes of USD Cecilia young Founders yeah okay so young first
