Abstract:
Objective To explore the methods for reducing the consumption of cleaning water and sterilization water in hospital disinfection supply centers.Methods The water-using equipment equipped in the disinfection supply center of a hospi-tal from December 2023 to December 2024 was selected as the research subject,and a water usage optimization plan based on to-tal productive maintenance(TPM)was implemented on the subject in the center for 6 months.The reduction rate of water con-sumption,equipment operation efficiency,cost-effectiveness of water conservation,process efficiency,as well as the participation and satisfaction of employees in the new strategy were compared before and after the intervention.Results After intervention,the total water consumption in the center was significantly reduced[(5 494.66±544.85)m3 vs.(4 652.35±702.22)m3],the time for cleaning equipment was shortened[(38.16±4.99)min vs.(47.58±1.39)min],the time for equipment sterilization[(36.84±1.83)min vs.(47.24±1.13)min].The failure rate of the cleaning equipment was lowered(0.00％vs.4.00％).The water cost was decreased[(12 423.88±1 319.74)yuan vs.(10 214.84±979.30)yuan].The total cleaning and sterili-zation time was significantly shortened[(2.45±0.27)h vs.(1.29±0.26)h,(P＜0.05)].The water consumption was re-duced by 4.68％,and the total rate of satisfaction and participation of employees was 92.3％.Conclusion The optimization scheme for cleaning water in disinfection supply centers based on TPM can effectively reduce water consumption,save water costs,improve the operational efficiency of equipment,process efficiency,and participation and satisfaction of employees.It is worthy of promotion and application in medical institutions.
