Question

click this link to view onets tasks section for biomedical engineers. note that common tasks are listed toward the top, and less common tasks are listed toward the bottom. according to onet, what are some common tasks performed by biomedical engineers? select three options.
□ prescribing medications
□ conducting research
□ creating treatment plans for patients recovering from injuries
□ adapt or design computer hardware for medical science uses.
□ designing and developing nutritious meal plans for patients at residential facilities
□ developing models or computer simulations of human biobehavioral systems

Explanation:

1. Prescribing medications is a task for licensed medical practitioners (e.g., doctors, nurse practitioners), not biomedical engineers.
2. Conducting research to advance medical technology and knowledge is a core common task for biomedical engineers.
3. Creating patient treatment plans is the role of clinical healthcare providers, not biomedical engineers.
4. Adapting or designing computer hardware for medical applications is a key engineering task within the biomedical field.
5. Designing meal plans falls under the scope of dietitians, not biomedical engineers.
6. Developing models and simulations of biological systems is a standard, common task for biomedical engineers to analyze and test medical solutions.

Answer:

B. conducting research
D. adapt or design computer hardware for medical science uses.
F. developing models or computer simulations of human biobehavioral systems
