RESUMO
Introduction: Continuous procurement of various equipments in the hospitals is essential to keep up with global progress of healthcare services. In public sectors, procurement process largely depends on budget sanctions and also by a number of formal procedures and rules which leads to delayed procurement. With this prevalent scenario, the present study was carried out to evaluate the procurement of two major equipments in an apex tertiary care institute using Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT). Objective: This study was done to evaluate the procurement of two major equipments using PERT in a tertiary care institute. Method: This study was conducted using Operational Research technique in an apex tertiary care institute i.e., medical college and hospital, in one of the North Eastern states of India. All the procurements related to equipments in that teaching hospital initiated in the financial year 2021 were listed. Out of them, two procurement files were selected by simple random sampling; procurement of Operating Table and Bio Safety cabinet Level – III. Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) was applied to calculate the possible reduction in time in the whole procurement process. Results: The present study showed that procurement of Operating table took 185 days where minimum 8 days could have been saved and procurement of Bio-Safety cabinet Level-III was completed by 702 days where minimum 196 days could have been saved. Conclusion: Application of PERT in this procurement evaluation process can play significant role by calculating critical path and predicting the possible delay.
RESUMO
Objective To develop a detachable upper limb operation table for facilitating field surgery and improve the utilization rate of surgical shelter in field hospital.Methods The operating table was composed of a rectangular frame made of stainless steel and a table top of insulation board.The width of the rectangular frame was quartered,and two elastic fasteners were placed respectively at the points of a quarter and 3 quarters.The operating table came into being after the two fasteners were connected.Results The table had its height regulated as required and facilitated intraoperative X-ray exposure,and enhanced the efficiency and satisfaction of the surgeon and nurse.Conclusion The table gains advantages in size,carrying,operation and structure,and thus is applicable for upper limb operation in field shelter.

RESUMO
To meet the requirements of modern field first-aid operation, a field operating table, which can be wholly folded, is developed in this paper. The table consists of a bracket and a board. The trigonal bracket, with double arms, has an articulated shoring. The posture regulation part is composed of the wormwheel, worm, rocker of plate and shoring fittings of all segments of the table. According to the measurements of its dimensions and posture angle, military experiment, experiments for stability, load, regulation moment and simulate transportation on the third level of road, S2001 field operating table is suitable for the operations on head and cervix, chest and abdomen, limbs, urinary organs and the five sense organs, whose wholly-fold structure contributes to rapid deployment and undeployment in the field.
