ABSTRACT
Maintenance and quality control management of large medical equipment is 3-level qualitative index for performance appraisal of tertiary public hospitals, which affects their medical quality directly. Since 2015, Shanghai Medical Equipment and Device Management Quality Control Center and other government organizations have gradually established and improved the quality evaluation index system of large medical equipment maintenance in combination with China′s performance testing standards for large medical equipments and the technical requirements of various manufacturers, and putted the system into application. In 2018, the Quality Control Center further optimized the quality evaluation index system of large medical equipment maintenance by improving the maintenance sheet and service report of large medical equipments, using the " internet+ mobile terminal" to dynamically collect core data of equipment′s full cycle maintenance. This practice has established a regional database of large-scale medical equipment maintenance, building a comprehensive quantitative evaluation indexes. The maintenance quality evaluation scores of mainstream manufacturers of large medical equipments in Shanghai maintained an overall rising trend year by year, and the annual inspection compliance rate of CT and MRI maintenance quality has continued to increase from 2015 to 2021. This evaluation system enables the hospital management departments to supervise the manufacturers to complete their maintenance work at a high quality, ensure the safe operation of large medical equipments, and provide data reference and technical support for the qualitative evaluation of the maintenance quality of medium and large medical equipments in the " national examination" .
ABSTRACT
Strengthening the supervision over the use of large-scale medical equipment is an effective means to improve the efficiency of equipment use and the quality of medical services, and it is an important part of promoting the construction of the Healthy China and the development of health undertakings. Through four stages of preliminary demand investigation, intelligent collection of data, intelligent analysis and evaluation, and continuous improvement, a large-scale medical equipment intelligent management platform was built in our hospital. Real-time data collection, interconnection, analysis and evaluation were achieved, which could help the use and supervision, improve efficiency and effectiveness, and optimize the evaluation system.
ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT
Large medical equipments feature complex technology,high investment and operational costs,bearing major impacts on medical expenses.Curbing overinvestment and excessive growth of such expenses at public hospitals hence becomes one of the government key goals in regulatory control for these equipments.Based on data of provincial hospitals in Zhejiang and core variants as regulatory measures for large medical equipments,the authors came to important findings.For example,when such influencing factors as the supplier and customer characteristics of provincial public hospitals,and the equipment investment and medical expenses of other public hospitals are under control,the administrative licensing control of such equipments can lower the investment of medical equipments and medical expenses by 32.2％ and 78.2％ respectively,in comparison with the approval mechanism.It is therefore important to strengthen the regulation on large medical equipments at provincial level,and encourage human capital investment of public hospitals with service quality as orientation.These efforts can lower excessive supply of medical technology of provincial hospitals,and help the government to improve its regulatory effects for large medical equipments.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the return on investment of 3 types of large medical equipments at Pudong's public hospitals in Shanghai.Methods Data on the numbers and purchasing expenditure, annual utilization headcounts, annual income and annual costs of the MRIs, CTs and DSAs were collected from these hospitals, and their breakeven points and recovery period were analyzed in the study. Results At these hospitals, CTs had relatively a higher return on investment in 2016, with 95 000 headcounts per hospital. At the interest rates of 1% , 3% and 5% , nine hospitals could recover their investment, at an average recovery period of 2.88 years, 3.23 years and 3.84 years respectively. That for DSS was poor. Conclusions These hospitals should improve the business performance of these equipments by means of rational purchase, enhanced utilization and sharing mechanism.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the allocation and equity of Class-A and Class-B large medical equipment in Shanghai, and to compare them with those in other parts of China and in other OECD countries. Methods The data of large medical equipments were collected from the Health and Family Planning Commission of Shanghai, government websites, relevant research reports and the database of OECD. Gene-coefficients were adopted to evaluate the equity of large equipment allocation. Results In terms of Class-A and Class B large equipments like CTs, MRIs and DSAs per million population, the number for Shanghai by the end of 2015, was 1.325, 5.30, 2.13 and 3.81 units respectively. Except for CTs, this figure was higher than national average, yet lower than average of other OECD countries. In addition, the equity in allocation of Class-B large medical equipment was better than that of Class-A large medical equipment in Shanghai. Conclusions The overall deployment level of large medical equipments in Shanghai remains to be increased, and the equity in allocation of Class-A large medical equipment deserves more attention.
