With the rapid development of China's medical industry, all kinds of medical equipment have gradually entered the treatment of patients, which has played a huge role in the treatment of patients' diseases. However, due to the particularity of the hospital industry, there are still many problems in the management level of medical equipment. In order to better improve the management level of hospital medical equipment in China, this paper briefly analyzes the problems existing in the management of medical equipment in China, and puts forward some suggestions from the author.
1 the main problems existing in the management of medical equipment in hospitals in China at present.
For the current medical equipment management in China, the existing problems mainly include the following contents:
1. 1 Delayed update or repeated purchase of medical equipment.
In the current medical equipment management, most hospitals mainly have two concepts. One is to buy equipment again, which can improve the level of medical equipment, and the other is to maintain the original medical equipment technically. This situation mainly occurs in some township hospitals, and these medical institutions do not have enough financial support. However, for the maintenance of medical equipment, due to the problems of the equipment itself and the backwardness of most medical equipment, patients can not get the best medical service when seeking medical treatment, which affects the treatment effect of patients. However, the renewal of medical equipment mainly appears in some big hospitals. In order to improve their own medical equipment level on the basis of sufficient funds, these hospitals often update medical equipment, which leads to a large accumulation of medical equipment and wastes a lot of hospital development funds.
1.2 the management system is not perfect
In the current medical equipment management, most hospitals do not have a sound management system, which leads to persistent management problems and seriously affects the normal operation of hospital medical equipment. Imperfect management system leads to frequent medical equipment accidents, endangering the life safety of patients. In addition, after the medical equipment was damaged, the relevant responsible persons passed the buck, which caused the problem to be delayed and affected the normal operation of the hospital. For example, an oxygen station in a hospital suddenly exploded in one year. After inquiry, it was because there was a problem with the pressure reducing valve of one of the oxygen generators. After the explosion, contact the relevant company for maintenance in time. Through this case, it can be shown that the imperfection of management system leads to the irresponsibility of relevant responsible personnel for their own work, which leads to a major accident in the hospital, which not only causes huge economic losses, but also causes serious harm to the life and health of staff.
1.3 quality problems of medical equipment
In the hospital, the emergency room needs to buy a defibrillator. Through various investigations and choices, it was finally decided that the two companies would enter the final selection. One company's medical equipment has a very good reputation, and the hospital has purchased a large number of its products, and there have been no problems in the operation process. However, the price of the company's products exceeded the hospital's budget, while the price of the second company's products was lower than the budget. After the final review, I bought the products of the second company. From the above cases, we can know that the quality and proficiency of equipment are very important when choosing equipment, especially for the defibrillator, a medical equipment that provides first aid to patients. When purchasing medical equipment that has not been practiced and has a great impact on patients' life safety, if there are problems in the operation process, it will cause great harm to hospitals and patients. For the hospital budget, it is only a reference data when purchasing equipment, and the quality of equipment should be considered most when purchasing specific equipment.
2 medical equipment management recommendations
2. 1 Establish and improve the medical equipment procurement management system.
The quality of medical equipment is directly related to the life and health of patients. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the control and management of the procurement process when purchasing medical equipment. By establishing a sound procurement system, relevant departments can purchase equipment.
Have a clear purchasing basis, and prevent product quality problems in the purchasing process through standardized purchasing management. In addition, in the process of purchasing, it is necessary to put forward their own opinions on the equipment from all participants such as the equipment use department of the hospital, the medical management clerk, and the engineering and technical personnel, and then the purchasing department will explain the equipment company and clearly point out in the contract to prevent the equipment problems from being solved in the later use process.
2.2 Establish an information platform
Although the above-mentioned medical equipment problems exist in some hospitals, these problems can reflect some problems and management loopholes in medical equipment management in China to a certain extent, which has a great impact on the service level of hospitals. Therefore, hospitals can avoid these problems by establishing an information platform. On this platform, all kinds of information of medical equipment, including purchase time and use time, are recorded comprehensively and in detail, and the use of medical equipment is recorded in real time in daily use. Through the establishment of this information platform, medical equipment can be managed in all directions, and in addition, the whole process of monitoring and management of medical equipment can be realized. The management mode of this information platform can also provide accurate data for medical equipment maintenance and prevent equipment accidents.
2.3 Strengthen maintenance
With the operation of medical equipment, there will inevitably be some wear and tear, which will have a certain impact on the use of equipment. Therefore, hospitals need to conduct comprehensive maintenance and inspection of medical equipment on a regular basis to solve problems in time.
