OROZCO, W; NARVAEZ, G; GALVIS, L. F e CANO, D. M. MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT IN BIOMEDICAL EQUIPMENTS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RESEARCH PROJECT CLEANER PRODUCTION IN THE HEALTH CLUSTER OF MEDELLÍN, COLOMBIA. Rev. ing. biomed. [online]. 2015, vol.9, n.18, pp.15-19. ISSN 1909-9762.
Objective: Characterize the state of the maintenance management of biomedical equipment in the emergency area of a (1) third-level hospital of high complexity medical assistance of the city of Medellin, Colombia in the period 2013-2014, within the Cleaner Production in Health research project. Methodology: A survey from the Cleaner Production Sectorial Guide in Hospitals, Clinics and Health Centers was designed; where a checklist, for the initial review of the maintenance management of the most complex biomedical equipment used in emergency areas was obtained. Results: In the surveyed institutions, it was found that the maintenance of the biomedical equipment, used in emergency areas, obtained a percentage of 86%, whilst in the metrology and maintenance management in the biomedical equipment, used in emergency areas, obtained a percentage of 96%. Conclusion: In the health institution, an appropriate maintenance management and an excellent metrological control to the emergency equipment (vital signs monitors, defibrillators, blood pressure monitors, servo-control incubators, electrocardiographs, and mechanical ventilators) is done. This indicates that only corrective maintenance of the equipment will be required when programmed.
