Objective In order to address the major issues in fixed assets management for public hospitals like"unclear management boundaries,poor management,improper utilization,and placing greater emphasis on purchasing rather than manage-ment"this paper delved into the management of fixed assets in public hospitals.Methods The Theory of Constraints(TOC)was used to guide the study.In conjunction with a current situation analysis,the key factors influencing fixed assets management in public hospitals were identified using a questionnaire survey as well as field investigation.Results By adopting a problem-sol-ving approach and focusing on the"five key elements"of refining institutional processes,optimizing system utilization,develo-ping team management,establishing effective performance evaluation,and implementing innovative work mechanisms,a lean management system for fixed assets in public hospitals was developed.This system ensured the efficient and standardized daily management of fixed assets,continual enhancement of institutional frameworks,initial formation of management teams,and the fundamental establishment of dynamic management practices.Conclusion Hospitals explore comprehensive life-cycle manage-ment of fixed assets,effectively elevating the level of refined management of fixed assets and ensuring the secure integrity and effi-cient utilization of state-owned assets.
