The current situation of the modern medical instrument maintenance industry and the requirements for personnel

Medical instruments and equipment are essential for clinical diagnosis, rescue, treatment, rehabilitation and health care as well as medical research. Modern medical equipment is a set of electronic technology, computer technology, ultrasound technology, nuclear physics technology, optical technology, new materials technology, sensor technology and mechanical technology and a series of high-tech integrated embodiment. The level of management of medical instruments and equipment, the maintenance of good and bad, the timeliness of equipment maintenance and equipment integrity rate, will directly affect the smooth implementation of clinical diagnosis and treatment work and the economic benefits of the hospital. Here are a number of ways to discuss the management of medical equipment maintenance.

1 medical equipment installation, acceptance and start

Medical units to buy new medical equipment arrived at the hospital, the hospital's maintenance engineers and technicians will be involved in the company's engineers for the installation, and take this opportunity to understand the principle of the equipment, the structure of the maintenance and repair methods and the replacement of wearable parts and so on. After the completion of the installation of equipment debugging, to understand the performance of the equipment and whether the parameters meet the requirements, and fill out the acceptance report. At the same time, the establishment of a register of equipment use, the name of the equipment, model, type, category, manufacturer, the start of the use of time and other records, and require equipment operators to record the use of equipment every day.

2 The use of medical equipment

Management of medical equipment failure, a significant portion of the failure is due to not strictly in accordance with the operating procedures of the instrumentation operation or caused by human factors: such as micro-syringe pump machine into the liquid corrosion circuit board; guardian ECG lead line broken, oxygen saturation probe damage; defibrillation electrode plate broken, etc.. Therefore, medical instruments and equipment put into normal use, maintenance engineers and technicians should often to the use of the department and instrument operators to communicate, to understand the use of instruments and equipment. Check the use of the environment such as room temperature, humidity, dust, safety grounding, protection, etc. whether to meet the use of the requirements; to understand the equipment operator is strictly in accordance with the operating procedures of the equipment to operate, point out and correct the operation of the irregularities in a timely manner, and require operators to fill out the standardized use of the instrument registration book. In this way, will to a certain extent to reduce the occurrence of instrumentation failure, improve the integrity of the equipment.

3 Strengthen the maintenance and preventive maintenance

Do a good job of maintenance and preventive maintenance of instruments and equipment is to improve the integrity of the instrument and equipment and utilization, reduce the failure to extend the service life of the effective means. Hospital maintenance department in accordance with the characteristics of various types of instruments and equipment, principles, structure and use of the program, for the easy failure of the links, the development of specific maintenance of the content, procedures and measures, one or two times a year on large-scale instrumentation for maintenance and preventive maintenance. Mainly includes the optical system of the equipment dust, mold; circuit, photoelectric detection part of the dust, remove dirt; mechanical, mechanical transmission part of the rust, lubrication; part of the pipeline implementation of cleaning, dredging; solenoid valves for cleaning, rust and so on. In addition, there are also some fragile parts or use time limitations on the implementation of timely replacement of parts to ensure the normal operation of the instrumentation and long-term stability of the performance, to ensure the accuracy of the use of equipment and the effectiveness of the treatment of good sex.

4 timely maintenance of medical instruments and equipment

With the increase in the use of time, there will inevitably be a variety of failures. Hospital equipment maintenance department should be timely organization, deployment of relevant engineers and technicians to the department to carry out timely maintenance, as soon as possible to repair the faulty equipment, so that the clinical diagnosis and treatment work can continue to be carried out smoothly.

4.1 Hospital maintenance department to carry out technical division of labor on some universal stock more and the principle of relatively simple structure of the instrument by the whole staff *** with the maintenance; and on some of the principle of the structure of the complexity of large-scale instrumentation is to arrange for a long-term with the comprehensive maintenance, through long-term maintenance and repair of the relevant engineers and technicians to gradually familiarize themselves with the use of the equipment and the principle of the structure, to accumulate experience to facilitate rapid troubleshooting later on. experience to facilitate rapid troubleshooting and improve maintenance efficiency.

4.2 Organize the supply of spare parts This is an important means of improving maintenance efficiency. For some of the more stocked instruments and equipment such as monitors, lamps, medical hand washers, micro-injection pumps, etc., to do a good job in the procurement of perishable spare parts of the inventory; and some of the less stocked, but its perishable parts in the local procurement of difficult to plan the organization of the procurement in order to prepare for emergencies.

5 Establishment of technical files

Medical institutions, equipment maintenance department to the department as a unit, the establishment of large instruments and equipment, technical file accounts, including maintenance records and repair records. Maintenance records require the maintenance of the part, method, test situation, defects report, maintenance costs, maintenance and maintenance of the person responsible for detailed records; while the maintenance records of each maintenance of the failure phenomenon, the cause of the failure, the replacement of parts and components name, quantity and exact location, maintenance costs, maintenance of the person responsible for the record. The establishment of maintenance and repair files will help the future maintenance of information, rapid troubleshooting; at the same time, it can also be used during the period of statistical instruments and equipment maintenance and repair costs for the evaluation of the economic benefits of medical equipment and instruments and equipment used in the latter part of the end-of-life appraisal work to provide a numerical basis.

6 maintenance team construction

With the rapid development of science and technology, a variety of high, sharp, new technologies have been increasingly equipped with various types of medical equipment, so that the maintenance of medical equipment has become more complex and difficult. This requires medical engineering maintenance technicians to keep abreast of the times, and constantly learn new knowledge and skills. Through sending out, inviting in and other forms of on-the-job technical training, constantly improve the level of professional knowledge and theory and comprehensive quality, and strive to improve their own maintenance technology level, for clinical diagnosis and treatment to make a strong medical engineering technology to protect. To summarize, the continuous updating of medical instruments and equipment makes the maintenance, repair and management of equipment more and more demanding. Medical institutions equipment maintenance department to keep abreast of the times, continue to explore, take a more effective and efficient equipment maintenance management mode, in order to adapt to the rapid development of medical and health care.
