All-round Electronic Medical Device Management System

Chiayi Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Information
"As healthcare related laws, payment terms and primary epidemic types are constantly changing each year, the demands for medical devices also change rapidly such that many hospitals are facing difficulties in the material excess or insufficient inventories. In addition, as unethical vendors still exist in the market, the purchase of medical devices with medical supply with qualified certification from the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) is still the basic requirement for the introduction of safe medical devices. However, since the quantity of medical devices is enormous, if informationization is not introduced for effective management, there is still a likelihood of the purchase of devices from unethical vendors. In addition, sterilization surgical instrument cover plates are also of the problem of validity period management. The question on how to use various application tools to prevent the erroneous use of expired products is also an important aspect of patient safety. Since the function of the existing information system is insufficient to cope with the aforementioned changes, this project needs to cope with the environmental changes in order to constantly correct and add information system along with the introduction of mechanisms of barcode technology, system automatic computation Big Data and active adjustment of purchase standards such that an all-round and quick responsive medical device management operation can be established to ensure patient safety.

Benefits

"In this project, the commonly used material receiving quantity, stock control setting records etc. in 2016 are used for the calculation of performance. The improvement outcome after the introduction of the system is summarized in the following: 1. Save operation working hours of 1,081 hours/month, equivalent to the manpower of approximately 6.8 people. 2. Improve commonly used material inventory turnover rate of approximately 10%. 3. Improve commonly used material inventory out of stock rate of approximately 14%. 4. The number of times where vendor's medical device permit license of MOHW expires but not detected timely is reduced from 6 times per year to 0 times. 5. Sterilization surgical instrument cover plate and sterilized wrap barcode tracking system for providing complete sterilization abnormal recall mechanism, and to ensure that abnormal items are prevented from use on any patients while the tracking purpose can be achieved and the patient safety can be ensured. 6. Implement medical device collection request unit control in order to ensure that during major epidemic occurrence, the materials in shortage can be effectively distributed and managed immediately. In addition, operating type of fabrics and fabrics for general use unit are effectively controlled to be separately distributed and managed in order to increase the usage quality of the operating type fabric.
