The present situation and the deficiencies of high-value medical consumables were analyzed. Two-dimensional barcode technology was suggested to be involved in the whole-course dynamic tracing of the high-value consumables to combine the high-value consumables information with the patient information. The course included the links of acquisi-tion, warehousing, barcode preparation, delivering and charging. Two-dimensional barcode technology may enhance the medical consumables management and decrease medical dispute, and thus contributes to the development of digital hospi-tal.
2.Discussion on Standardization Management Mode of Medical Equipment Based on Whole Process Quality Control.
Chinese Journal of Medical Instrumentation 2020;44(3):270-275
This paper introduced the current situation of medical equipment. Based on the current problems such as technology assessment difficulty, weak consciousness on maintenance management, less quality control during clinic use and backward information level, the standardized management based on the whole process quality control was proposed. Combined the whole process quality control system with the construction of quality management information, the management level of the medical equipment was enhanced. The application of standardized management based on the whole process quality control can make the medical equipment work better in the clinic and set a good foundation for the development of hospital.

Objective:To assess the three-dimensional dose distribution in radiotherapy plans using the structural similarity index(SSIM), compare the performance of SSIM with commonly used quality assessment indices, and develop a SSIM-based quality assessment method of multiple prescribed doses.Methods:The SSIM was introduced to providea quality score of various voxels by comparing actual and ideal three-dimensional dose data and combining the spatial location information of the voxels. Then the average value in a region of interest (ROI) was calculated as the quality score of the region. Fifty-three cases of cervical cancer were selected to analyze the correlation of the SSIM with the uniformity index (HI), conformity index (CI) of the dose distribution in various ROIs and to explore the capability of the SSIM to reflect the uniformity and conformity of dose distribution.Two types of quality defects were individually introduced into two of 53 radiotherapy plans. Then the two plans were compared with normal plans to characterize the response of the SSIM.Results:There was no correlation between HI and SSIM in positive lymph nodes(PGTVnd) due to the decrease in the HI sensitivity, while there was a significant negative correlation between them in regions where PGTVnd was removed from the planning target volume(PTV, R=-0.86, P<0.01). Meanwhile, there was a significant positive correlation between CI and SSIM in PGTVnd ( R=0.83, P<0.01). Therefore, the SSIM can be used to identify the artificial design defects in plans by determining abnormal dose gradients. Conclusions:Apart from reducing the defects of previous assessment parameters, the SSIM has the capability to assess the quality of radiotherapy plans by combining the uniformity and conformity of dose distribution and can provide accurate feedback on the spatial locations of quality defects.
