Medical technology proficiency is a key indicator of a municipal-level hospital′s core competitiveness. To continuously enhance its medical capabilities, a tertiary prefecture-level hospital in Zhejiang province launched the " 100 high-tech projects" in 2010, designating it as a priority technical development program. The hospital established a hospital-level knowledge management team in 2020 to build a knowledge management system for high-tech projects. This system fostered a virtuous cycle of synergistic advancement in medical technology innovation, knowledge management, and talent development by extracting both explicit and tacit knowledge from the hospital′s high-tech projects, absorbing tacit knowledge from benchmark hospitals′ relevant technologies, and establishing a knowledge-sharing platform. From January 2021 to October 2024, the hospital secured approval for 9 national and provincial-level clinical key specialties, established 7 municipal key technological innovation teams, and enrolled 46 provincial/municipal-level talents. A the same time, talent attrition remained low. The implementation of the knowledge management system to empower high-tech development had achieved phased results. This practice could provide references for other hospitals to enhance their medical technology capabilities.

Objective:Build a research index performance model with discipline growth evaluation, to evaluate the scientific research performance level of various disciplines in hospital more objectively, fairly and dynamically.Methods:Take the research projects, papers, patents and achievements as the main evaluation indicators and establish the hierarchical and classified scoring standards, to form the weight index evaluation model for the total score, per capita score and growth of the discipline research.Results:Using the growth research index to evaluate the scientific research performance of departments and individual researcher between January 2018 and December 2020. Excellent departments were selected for the top 10% of the scientific research index, those whose scientific research scores increased by more than 20% compared with the previous year were selected as the progressive departments, and the top 1% of individual scientific research scores were selected as the advanced researchers, which were commended and encouraged. For the departments ranked in the bottom 5% or whose scientific research index significantly declined compared with previous year, early warning, guidance and supervision were implemented. Since the implementation of the evaluation system, the research performance of disciplines has been significantly improved, and many achievements were made.Conclusions:This evaluation mode can stimulate the enthusiasm of the disciplines and scientific researchers for entrepreneurship and innovation to set up the standards and promote the continuous improvement of the research capacity of the whole hospital.
