Application of PDCA cycle combined with 6S management in emergency medical equipment management
Objective To explore PDCA(Plan,Do,Check,Action)cycle and 6S(Seiri,Seiton,Seiso,Seiketsu,Shitsuke,Safety)management method for reducing the failure rate and frequency of medical equipment in hospital emergency room,and opti-mize the management process of emergency medical equipment.Methods The quality control group was established by med-ical engineering department and emergency room,and members of the group collected the statistics of failure stand-by time,service time and failure frequency of emergency equipment from January to June in 2022,by means of brainstorm,fishbone di-agram,Plato chart,members explored failure causes,established and implemented countermeasures.The data from July to De-cember in 2022 after implementation of countermeasures were statistically analyzed,and changes of failure rate and frequency were compared to evaluate the implementation effects of the countermeasures.Results The equipment management software MEIS was developed,which achieved the function of inquiry,repair and traceability of medical equipment.After improve-ments,the whole service time of equipment was 96 946 hours,failure stand-by time was 369 hours.The target compliance rate was 112.5％and progress rate was 62.38％.After implementation of countermeasures,the failure rate(1.01％vs 0.38％)and frequency(121 times vs 51 times)of emergency medical equipment were significantly lower than those before implementation,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion It is demonstrated that PDCA cycle and 6S manage-ment method reduce the failure rate and frequency of emergency medical equipment,and standardize the process of maintenance,operation,fault management and measurement management of emergency medical equipment,which is helpful to improve the professional quality and medical service quality of practitioners,and provides the reference for establishing standardized medical equipment management model.
