Abstract:
Objective To learn the present hospital expenditures of medical devices maintenance for improvement recommendations. Methods An investigation was made to the clinical engineering sections of 33 hospitals in 2018, including 11 Beijing hospitals and 22 Zhejiang hospitals. Indicator values of maintenance expenditure were obtained, and the data were subject to descriptive statistics. Results The mean of beds of these hospitals was 1514. 13 ± 710. 99, that of medical devices was 8120. 90 ± 6488. 63, that of original value of these devices was 843 ± 496 million yuan, and that of maintenance cost was 17. 35 ± 11. 92 million yuan. This indicated the cost of service ratio as 2. 02％. Conclusions Training of engineers should be strengthened at the sections, for more in-house maintenance. Informationization should be enhanced for precision maintenance. Multi-channel maintenance model should be introduced to further lower the costs.
