Abstract:
Objective:To analyze application effect of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis(FMEA)in the maintenance and upkeep for equipment in operating room.Methods:The process of FMEA mode was analyzed,and a strategy about maintenance and upkeep for equipment in operating room on the basis of FMEA was formulated from some aspects included preparation stage,analysis for failure mode(FM),construction for the system of prevention,maintenance and upkeep,and improvement and analysis for results.Sixty used equipment in the operating room of Shiyan Taihe Hospital(Affiliated Hospital of Hubei University of Medicine)from January to December 2023 were selected.According to different management methods for equipment,the conventional management mode and the FMEA management mode were respectively selected to conduct maintenance and upkeep for equipment in operating room,with 30 equipment in each management mode.The incidences of adverse events,the satisfaction scores of operators,and the qualities of maintenance and upkeep for equipment of the two kinds of management modes were compared.Results:The number of occurring inadequate preparation of surgical associated facilities,non-standardized operation of surgical equipment,and incidence of faliures in surgical equipment were respectively in 30 equipment in operating room that adopted FMEA management mode,and the total incidence of adverse events was 6.67%(2/30),which was lower than 36.67%(11/30)that adopted conventional management mode,and the difference was statistically significant(x2=7.954,P<0.05).The satisfaction scores of the operators of operating equipment for the operational quality,usage operation,and maintenance and upkeep of the equipment that received the FMEA management mode in operating room were respectively(92.22±3.36),(91.69±2.25)and(93.25±3.69)points,all of which were higher than those that received conventional management mode,and the differences were statistically significant(t=15.418,17.415,16.639,P<0.05).The average increase extents of the response time for fault,repair time for fault,and the cost of operation and maintenance that adopted FMEA management mode were respectively(2.36±0.59)h,(4.25±2.11)h and(1.89±0.14)%for equipment in operating room,all of which were less than those that adopted conventional management mode,and the differences were statistically significant(t=9.943,12.050,11.069,P<0.05).The failure frequency of equipment of adopting FMEA management mode was(1.54±0.21)times per year,which was lower than that of adopting conventional management mode.The average success rate of opening equipment of adopting FMEA management mode was(90.69±3.59)%,which was higher than that of adopting conventional management mode,and the differences of the above two indicators between two modes were statistically significant(t=15.184,18.779,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of FMEA in the maintenance and upkeep for medical equipment in the operating room can assess the operational quality of the equipment,and carry out preventive operation and maintenance,and reduce the incidence of failures in equipment,and decrease costs for maintenance,and improve the clinical service level for the equipment.
