ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze statistically the data on the charging items in some hospital to determine monitor equipment utilization rate in the nursing unit,so as to provide data support for proposing monitor equipment allocation scheme in the hospital.Methods Totally 571 pieces of monitor equipment were used as the subjects,and the records on the charging items in HIS database were extracted from January 1st 2016 to June 30th 2017.The monitor equipment utilization rates,that is,the daily hours of operation,in the nursing units were calculated,and then were compared and analyzed.Results The allocation of the monitor equipment proved reasonable although pre-purchase demonstration in some nursing units had no enough data support.Conclusion It's feasible to instruct equipment allocation with the utilization rate based on charging items analysis.
