Abstract:
Objective:To apply quality function deployment(QFD)method to formulate management strategy for usage quality of medical equipment,so as to provide a reference for ensuring the safety of using medical equipment.Methods:A questionnaire about the guarantee for the requirement of usage quality of medical equipment was designed,so as to obtain the information of the users of clinical department of The Affiliated Xinghua Hospital to Kangda College of Nanjing Medical University for the requirement of usage quality of medical equipment in using medical equipment from February to April 2024,and confirm the important degree of the requirement.Then,the QFD method was adopted to convert the requirements of users for medical equipment to the required technical indicators of guaranteeing usage quality of medical equipment,and the priority technical guarantee measures of the important degree were quantitatively obtained.Results:A total of 478 questionnaires were issued,and 442 valid questionnaires were retrieved,and the valid recovery rate of questionnaire was 92.47%.The questionnaire identified and analyzed 12 requirements of three dimensions of users in using medical equipment,and they were converted to the top six technical guarantee measures of the strategy of quality management of using medical equipment,which included equipment function,criticality of equipment mission,type of service provider,compliance of rules and regulations,requirements of maintenance,and service life.Conclusion:QFD method can help medical engineering department to establish a management system of usage quality with quantitative analysis for medical equipment,and enhance the management level for the quality of medical equipment in medical institutions,and realize maximize benefit of medical equipment.
