Abstract:
Objective:To establish a performance evaluation system for medical equipment and conduct empirical research, providing a reference for the performance assessment and refined management of medical equipment.Methods:Based on literature research and expert consultation, a multi-dimensional medical equipment performance evaluation index system was constructed. Based on this indicator system, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method was used to objectively evaluate the performance level of CT, MRI, digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and ultrasound equipment of 6 hospitals in Hubei Province from 2019 to 2021.Results:The evaluation system included 4 first-level indicators including equipment service benefits, social benefits, economic benefits, and sustainable development benefits, including 9 second-level indicators and 21 three-level indicators. In the comprehensive evaluation of hospitals and equipments, there were obvious differences in the performance evaluation results of different types of equipment among hospitals. The comprehensive performance level of DSA was relatively lower compared to other devices. A longitudinal comparison was conducted on DSA equipment, and it was found that its economic benefits had declined and its social benefits had not been fully utilized.Conclusions:The establishment of a scientific performance evaluation system for medical equipment can effectively serve the decision-making and efficient operation of hospital equipment management. It can help hospitals continuously improve the level of refined management of medical equipment from the aspects of establishing management mechanisms and strengthening personnel management, and fully leverage the comprehensive benefits of equipment.
