[0002] Medical equipment resources are the core component of medical resources and are crucial to the quality of diagnosis and treatment and health protection. A large part of the investment in the medical and health sector is used for the resource allocation of medical equipment. The proportion of fixed asset investment in equipment resources of many medical institutions has exceeded 50%. Medical equipment has the characteristics of high technical content, high compliance requirements, complex types, and diverse uses. The relevant applicable standards and regulations are scattered and the product life cycle span is large. The information systems and data sources related to medical equipment resources are heterogeneous and complex. Therefore, refined management of medical equipment resources is of great significance for the scientific and effective allocation of resources, improving efficiency and reducing consumption.

[0003] In recent years, many countries have vigorously built digital hospitals to enhance the refined management capabilities of medical equipment. As an important part of digital hospitals, the construction of intelligent monitoring and management platforms for medical equipment has yet to be improved, resulting in chaotic medical equipment management data and difficulty in achieving digitized intelligent supervision. Missing equipment usage data and data quality issues have led to difficulties in efficiently advancing related applied health technology assessments. The precise allocation of medical equipment resources in medical institutions, as well as the dynamic supervision of usage efficiency, benefits, and quality information also need to be improved.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure and deficiencies are studied and improved, and a medical equipment management platform and method for digital hospitals is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0009] The operation and maintenance management module includes four modules: metering management, maintenance management, repair management, and preventive operation and maintenance;

[0010] The benefit analysis module includes three modules: basic situation analysis, usage analysis, and clinical value analysis.

[0011] A medical equipment management method for a digital hospital, which is applied to the above-mentioned medical equipment management platform for a digital hospital, and the medical equipment management method for a digital hospital comprises the following steps:

[0012] S1. Procurement module:

[0013] First, determine whether the diagnosis and treatment business needs to be purchased. If it is determined that purchase is needed, initiate a purchase application, and specify the specific information of the purchased items or services in detail in the application. Then, formulate a comprehensive and detailed demand plan based on the purchase application, and then enter the stage of specifying bidding parameters and conducting bidding and procurement. In this process, it is necessary to clarify the various parameters required for bidding, and then conduct bidding and procurement in accordance with the principle of fair competition, select the appropriate supplier, and after the purchased items are in place, implement the installation work according to the pre-determined plan to ensure that the purchased items or services can be put into use smoothly, and finally inspect and accept the procurement project;

[0014] S2. Install the module:

Then, in the goods acceptance stage, during this process, check whether the equipment or software delivered is consistent with the purchase list. After completing the arrival acceptance, the technicians will install the equipment or software according to the installation manual and relevant specifications, and carry out preliminary debugging to ensure that it can operate normally. After the installation and debugging is completed, the evaluators will check the installation results according to the established standards and indicators. If the evaluation result is qualified, the next step will be continued. If it is unqualified, it is necessary to return to re-install and debug. When the acceptance evaluation is qualified, the acceptance is signed and the relevant installation materials are collected. Finally, relevant employees are trained. After the training is completed, it can be officially put into use, so that the newly installed equipment or software can serve the actual business operations;

[0016] S3, maintenance module:

[0017] Equipment maintenance is divided into three parts: preventive maintenance, routine maintenance and troubleshooting;

[0018] In terms of preventive maintenance and repair, first conduct a risk assessment, formulate a maintenance plan based on the assessment results, then maintain and repair the equipment according to the plan, and finally fill in records and write reports;

[0019] For routine maintenance, the first step is to clean the equipment and tighten the parts, then check whether the equipment is operating normally. If any problems are found, report them to the management department, and finally fill in the records and write a report;

[0020] In the fault repair part, when receiving a repair report, we first conduct an inspection and evaluation, and decide whether to repair it ourselves or contact the manufacturer for repair based on the evaluation results. After the repair is completed, we fill in the record and write a report. Through such a systematic process, we ensure that the maintenance work of the equipment can be carried out in a comprehensive and orderly manner.

[0021] S4, scrap module:

[0022] When the equipment has been used for its preset period of time and its performance and status have reached the established scrapping standards, the scrapping process is initiated. Once it is determined that the equipment meets the scrapping conditions, the relevant personnel need to submit a scrapping application. The scrapping application should include detailed information about the equipment and the reason for the scrapping application. The submitted scrapping application will enter the approval process. The approval department will review it based on the actual situation of the equipment and the company's relevant policies and regulations.

[0031] Select the target device from the device list, and the system will load its corresponding standardized template;

[0032] The user manually fills in the device status information in the template based on the actual situation;

[0033] The system verifies the input data and prompts you to modify it if it does not meet the requirements;

[0034] After the data is verified, the user submits it and saves it to the system database;

[0035] The batch entry process is as follows:

[0036] After logging into the platform, the user enters the "Batch Equipment Status Entry" module;

[0037] You can select a device group or upload a standardized file containing device status information;

[0038] If you select a device group, the system loads standardized templates for the devices in the group;

[0054] Furthermore, the medical equipment management method for digital hospitals also includes the following steps:

[0055] S11, Maintenance management module and preventive operation and maintenance module:

[0056] It supports multiple fault reporting methods, makes judgments on equipment failures, provides preliminary maintenance plans, and carries out preventive maintenance planning.

[0057] Furthermore, the medical equipment management method for digital hospitals also includes the following steps:

[0058] S12, basic situation analysis module:

[0059] Data extraction: The medical equipment management platform should support direct access to third-party applications and tools in common medical scenarios, such as medical imaging information systems (PACS), clinical information systems (CIS), radiology information systems (RIS), hospital information systems (HIS), laboratory information systems (LIS), and electronic medical record systems (EMR). The platform should obtain information including equipment name, number, quantity, and category, such as diagnostic equipment, treatment equipment, purchase price, and brand. The platform should use data query statements to accurately filter out the required data fields and integrate these data into a data set to prepare for subsequent analysis.

[0060] Classification statistics, based on the extracted data, are classified and summarized according to equipment categories, and the number of equipment in each category is counted. At the same time, for the equipment asset value, the total assets of equipment of different categories and brands and the total asset value of all equipment in the hospital are calculated to intuitively understand the weight of each part of the equipment assets in the whole.

[0061] Furthermore, the medical equipment management method for digital hospitals also includes the following steps:

[0062] S13, usage analysis module:

[0063] Data collection and integration: extract multi-source data from the database of the medical equipment management platform, including the boot time record in the equipment operation log, the fault alarm record, the maintenance times in the maintenance work order and related feedback information, clean and organize these data, remove invalid and redundant information, and build a usage data set for each device to provide a reliable basis for subsequent analysis;

[0064] Calculation and analysis of key indicators: various key indicators are calculated based on the integrated data. For example, the equipment utilization rate is calculated through the boot time data to reflect the utilization of the equipment. The failure rate is calculated based on the fault alarm record, that is, the ratio of the number of faults to the total equipment operation time, to evaluate the reliability of the equipment. The fault downtime can be directly obtained and accumulated from the fault record to measure the impact of the fault on the equipment operation. The number of maintenance times reflects the maintenance frequency of the equipment. The maintenance satisfaction comes from the user feedback score in the maintenance work order. The equipment integrity rate is calculated by calculating the ratio of the number of normally operating equipment to the total number of equipment to understand the overall integrity of the equipment.

[0065] Comprehensive evaluation and report generation: conduct a comprehensive evaluation based on the above key indicators, analyze the dynamic trend of equipment quality, and generate a detailed report based on the analysis results. The report content includes the indicator data of each equipment, comprehensive evaluation conclusions and improvement suggestions, providing decision support for the hospital equipment management department.

[0066] Furthermore, the medical equipment management method for digital hospitals also includes the following steps:

[0067] S14, Clinical Value Analysis Module:

[0068] Data collection and collation: First, equipment-related data is collected from multiple channels such as the hospital information system (HIS), the laboratory information system (LIS), and the scientific research management system. Data privacy information needs to be anonymized and desensitized. For the average number of diagnosis and treatment or service personnel per unit, the number of service records of the equipment in a specific time period is extracted and divided by the total number of equipment. The positive inspection rate is calculated based on the ratio of the number of positive results in the inspection results to the total number of inspections. The average scientific research funding data per unit comes from the scientific research investment information related to the equipment in the scientific research project application and funding management system.

[0069] Indicator calculation and analysis: Based on the collected data, we conduct in-depth analysis and calculate the average number of diagnosis and treatment or service visits per station to directly reflect the popularity of the device in clinical diagnosis and treatment services. The positive inspection rate can reflect the accuracy and effectiveness of the equipment inspection. A relatively high positive rate means that the equipment has a more important value in disease diagnosis. The average scientific research funding indicator per station can evaluate the support of the equipment for scientific research and innovation. The above indicators are combined to judge the clinical and social value of the equipment.

[0070] Value assessment presentation: conduct a comprehensive value assessment of the equipment based on the indicator calculation results, classify and sort the equipment according to their clinical value, and prepare a detailed assessment report.

[0071] The present invention provides a medical equipment management platform and method for digital hospitals, which has the following features:

[0147] Personalized plan customization: for inspection, set the cycle and key points according to the stability and importance of the equipment, conduct frequent and detailed inspections on key equipment, set the cycle and accuracy of measurement according to regulations and historical data, arrange maintenance according to wear patterns and failure history, give priority to maintenance of vulnerable parts, and streamline non-critical items for new equipment, so as to achieve a high degree of fit between the plan and equipment characteristics;

[0148] Plan review and release: After the plan is generated, it will undergo intelligent review and be checked for rationality and completeness against industry and in-hospital standards. Once approved, it will be released to relevant teams through multiple channels through platform message push. Members can check details, task assignments and time arrangements, and provide feedback on execution progress to ensure smooth implementation of the plan.

[0149] S11, Maintenance management module and preventive operation and maintenance module:

[0150] It supports multiple fault reporting methods, makes judgments on equipment faults, provides preliminary maintenance plans, and carries out preventive maintenance planning. The process is as follows:

[0151] The user initiates the repair process. After discovering a fault, the equipment user logs in to the platform and fills in the equipment name, model, location and accurate fault description. After submission, the information is sent to the work queue of the management department, and a work order containing the repair time and the person who made the repair is generated to facilitate subsequent tracking and processing;

[0152] Intelligent monitoring initiates the repair process. The intelligent monitoring system of the equipment monitors in real time. When an abnormal operating parameter or a specific fault feature is encountered, a repair report is automatically triggered. The fault information is first analyzed and sorted, and then transmitted to the platform through the communication interface. The mainstream equipment interface protocol should be supported. The platform creates a work order based on this and records the fault details.

[0153] Fault diagnosis: After receiving the fault report, maintenance personnel will make a preliminary analysis of the fault location and cause based on the fault phenomenon, combined with professional knowledge and experience, and referring to the error code and past cases. For example, if the image of the medical equipment is abnormal, they will check the imaging component and locate the approximate scope of the fault.

[0154] Provide preliminary maintenance plan, based on fault judgment, and make plans with the help of knowledge base. Cover maintenance steps, such as parts inspection, replacement process, tool and material list and safety precautions, such as power failure, detailed detection and replacement operations and reminders to prevent electric shock;

[0155] Preventive maintenance planning: After troubleshooting, assess risks based on fault history and operating environment, identify key and vulnerable parts, develop plans, clarify regular inspection intervals, project content, maintenance cycles and methods, such as key component testing, vulnerable parts inspection, and equipment lubrication and calibration arrangements.

[0156] S12, basic situation analysis module:

[0157] The basic situation analysis of the equipment is as follows:

[0158] Data extraction: The medical equipment management platform should support direct access to third-party applications and tools in common medical scenarios, such as medical imaging information systems (PACS), clinical information systems (CIS), radiology information systems (RIS), hospital information systems (HIS), laboratory information systems (LIS), and electronic medical record systems (EMR). The platform should obtain information including equipment name, number, quantity, and category, such as diagnostic equipment, treatment equipment, purchase price, and brand. The platform should use data query statements to accurately filter out the required data fields and integrate these data into a data set to prepare for subsequent analysis.

[0159] Classification statistics, based on the extracted data, are classified and summarized according to equipment categories, and the number of equipment in each category is counted, such as the number of diagnostic equipment and the number of treatment equipment. At the same time, for the equipment asset value, the total assets of equipment of different categories and brands and the total asset value of all equipment in the hospital are calculated, so as to intuitively understand the weight of each part of the equipment assets in the whole.

[0160] S13, usage analysis module:

[0161] The process of equipment usage analysis is as follows:

[0162] Data collection and integration: extract multi-source data from the database of the medical equipment management platform, including the boot time record in the equipment operation log, the fault alarm record, the maintenance times in the maintenance work order and related feedback information, clean and organize these data, remove invalid and redundant information, and build a usage data set for each device to provide a reliable basis for subsequent analysis;

[0163] Calculation and analysis of key indicators: various key indicators are calculated based on the integrated data. For example, the equipment utilization rate is calculated through the boot time data to reflect the utilization of the equipment. The failure rate is calculated based on the fault alarm record, that is, the ratio of the number of faults to the total equipment operation time, to evaluate the reliability of the equipment. The fault downtime can be directly obtained and accumulated from the fault record to measure the impact of the fault on the equipment operation. The number of maintenance times reflects the maintenance frequency of the equipment. The maintenance satisfaction comes from the user feedback score in the maintenance work order. The equipment integrity rate is calculated by calculating the ratio of the number of normally operating equipment to the total number of equipment to understand the overall integrity of the equipment.

[0164] Comprehensive evaluation and report generation: A comprehensive evaluation is conducted based on the above key indicators to analyze the dynamic trend of equipment quality. For example, if the failure rate of a certain equipment continues to rise and the maintenance satisfaction is low, it indicates the need to optimize the maintenance strategy or consider equipment updates. The analysis results are generated into a detailed report, which includes the indicator data of each equipment, comprehensive evaluation conclusions and improvement suggestions, to provide decision-making support for the hospital equipment management department.

[0165] S14, Clinical Value Analysis Module:

[0166] The process of equipment clinical value analysis is as follows:

[0167] Data collection and collation: First, equipment-related data is collected from multiple channels such as the hospital information system (HIS), the laboratory information system (LIS), and the scientific research management system. Data privacy information needs to be anonymized and desensitized. For the average number of diagnosis and treatment or service personnel per unit, the number of service records of the equipment in a specific time period is extracted and divided by the total number of equipment. The positive inspection rate is calculated based on the ratio of the number of positive results in the inspection results to the total number of inspections. The average scientific research funding data per unit comes from the scientific research investment information related to the equipment in the scientific research project application and funding management system.

[0168] Indicator calculation and analysis: Based on the collected data, we conduct in-depth analysis and calculate the average number of diagnosis and treatment or service visits per station to directly reflect the popularity of the device in clinical diagnosis and treatment services. The positive inspection rate can reflect the accuracy and effectiveness of the equipment inspection. A relatively high positive rate means that the equipment has a more important value in disease diagnosis. The average scientific research funding indicator per station can evaluate the support of the equipment for scientific research and innovation. The above indicators are combined to judge the clinical and social value of the equipment.

[0169] Value assessment presentation: conduct a comprehensive value assessment of the equipment based on the indicator calculation results, classify and sort the equipment according to their clinical value, and prepare a detailed assessment report.
