RESUMO
Objective:To explore effective ways to improve the medical quality and safety management level of medical equipment.Methods: Using the PDCA management tool in the daily maintenance of medical equipment, the management of medical equipment is more reasonable. Results:During 2 years’ PDCA plan implementation, fault total cases in 32 sets of hemodialysis equipment were 461, and annual average cases were 230.5. In comparison with the total number of 441 fault cases of 28 units in the previous 1 years, the failure rate is greatly decreased. The mis-operation caused by fault is also greatly reduced. The circuit and water failures were annually 16.5 times and 197 times, and they were greatly reduced compared to 25 times and 324 times in the previous year.Conclusion: It can effectively improve the medical quality and safety management level of medical equipment by using the PDCA management tool in the daily maintenance of medical equipment, and also in the tertiary general hospital accreditation standards provisions to clear quality and safety indicators and records of continuous improvement effect of the department of medical equipment. Therefore, In the medical equipment maintenance work, it can carry out the new trend of PDCA and medical equipment management.
