Construction of the Whole Life Cycle Performance Evaluation System of Large Medical Equipment Based on Fine Management
Objective To construct a performance evaluation system for the whole life cycle of large medical equipment,and to provide reference for the fine management of large medical equipment.Methods Literature review and expert interviews were used to establish the initial indicator pool,then the research team sorted out and discussed the initial indicators and compiled the expert letter questionnaire.The Delphi method was used to consult 40 selected experts in the field of medical equipment management.The whole life cycle performance evaluation system of large medical equipment was established.The index weights were determined by analytic hierarchy process.The empirical analysis was carried out,taking the CT machine of a health examination center in a branch of a grade Ⅲ-A hospital in Qingdao as an example.Results The whole life cycle performance evaluation system of large medical equipment was established,including 4 first-level indicators,12 second-level indicators and 117 third-level indicators.Using this evaluation system,the CT machine of a health examination center in a branch of a grade Ⅲ-A hospital in Qingdao was evaluated.The score of the CT machine in the procurement configuration stage was 47.1,and the score in the operation management stage was 37.9.The comprehensive evaluation result of the CT machine was excellent according to the evaluation criteria.Conclusion The active degree,authority degree and coordination degree of experts in this study are all in line with the standards,and the whole life cycle performance evaluation system constructed for large medical equipment is highly scientific and reliable,which can provide reference for the fine management of large medical equipment.
