Gestão de tecnologia em saúde: avaliação de equipamentos eletromédicos em unidade de centro cirúrgico - Health technology management: evaluation of electromedical equipment in a surgical center unit

Objetivo: discutir como se dá a gestão dos equipamentos eletromédicos em saúde, adotado pela unidade de centro cirúrgico de um hospital universitário estadual situado no município do estado do Rio de Janeiro à luz da RDC Nº2 de 25 de janeiro de 2010. Método: trata-se de um estudo descritivo, exploratório do tipo estudo de caso. Realizado em um hospital universitário do estado do Rio de Janeiro. Pesquisa autorizada através do CAAE 67955617.0.0000.5259. Resultados: os resultados permitiram construir a discussão do caso, levando em conta os pontos mais significativos e gerando então 2 categorias. Categoria 1: gestão de equipamentos eletromédicos. Categoria 2: relação e usabilidade de equipamentos eletromédicos. Conclusão: conclui-se que não há conformidade com a RDC No 2, de 25 de janeiro de 2010 com a ausência de diversos fatores exigidos pela resolução, porém o caminho a ser percorrido pela Unidade de Centro Cirúrgico.

Baby Incubator Based on PID Control With Kangaroo Mode (Kangaroo Mode and Humidity)

Baby Incubator is one of the electromedical equipment used to provide protection to premature babies or low birth weight. Baby care in the baby incubator causes separation of mother and baby. A new innovation in the care of premature babies who bring their babies and mothers closer is Kangaroo Method Management (PMK). Kangaroo method treatment aims to create emotional attachment to the baby, so that the mother will confidently take care. The research and manufacture of this module uses a method of treating baby incubator by adding a reading of the room temperature when the kangaroo mode runs at a setting of 34 ° C - 37 ° C with the effect of room temperature at 18 ° C, 24 ° C, and 30 ° C and setting the humidity control automatically by measuring at a temperature of 32 ° C, then measuring the results immediately. Sensors used to detect temperature are LM35 sensors and sensors used to detect humidity using DHT22. Based on the measurement results obtained uncertainty values ​​on the measurement of humidity 2.1, the measurement of temperature stability can be seen from the results of the graph which shows that the room temperature is not too influential at the temperature of the baby incubator. This study has shown the development of baby incubators to help mothers who have babies born prematurely so that they can have a good bond with how to treat skin to skin. This study has proven that its accuracy is appropriate to be used to stabilize the condition of babies born prematurely and help to treat PMK in some hospitals. In the future, this research can be made and used in small clinics in villages at low costs.

Maintenance Policies Optimization of Medical Equipment in a Health Care Organization

The aim of this chapter is to minimize the corrective breakdowns produced in the electromedical equipment of a healthcare organization. To this, an optimization plan of maintenance policies will be developed. This plan includes the creation of preventive maintenance datasheets. The data used in this research has been obtained from the computerized maintenance management system, which is owned by the healthcare organization. Different types of rankings have been made in the stocks to prioritize items by family of equipment and by average work orders by equipment generated. The maintenance tasks are optimized to preserve the satisfactory working conditions and the performance of equipment in the healthcare organization optimizing available resources. All of this is intended to anticipate the maintenance activity to breakdowns and to prevent the care quality from diminishing by increasing the patient waiting time by unavailability of medical equipment in the treatments and diagnostic tests.

Siemens and the Construction of Hospitals in Latin America, 1949–1964

This article focuses on the construction of turnkey hospitals in Latin America by the German electromedical equipment maker Siemens-Reiniger-Werke (SRW) in the 1950s and 1960s. After World War II, SRW was unable to return to the overseas markets it had lost during the war through only the export of goods. Hospital construction was thus a way to reenter these markets, offering local governments a new form of service and product: a German hospital. In order to achieve this strategy, SRW organized and directed an informal association called Deutsche Hospitalia, which gathered together some thirty German manufacturers involved in the process of building a fully equipped hospital. This article argues that SRW, by diffusing a standardized hospital model in Latin America, contributed to the globalization of medicine.
