Availability as an operational efficiency indicator of medical equipment

Original language description

The problem of operational efficiency assessment of purchased medical equipment is becoming critical, due to increasing public spending on medical devices. It has been shown that a significant amount of medical equipment is not in an operable state, formany different reasons. Commonly used complex operational efficiency indicators take the standby and down states of medical equipment into account together, as they do not have the potential to provide separate analyses of the efficiency of medical device management at healthcare facilities. Thus, the goal of this study was to identify and describe indicators for a more detailed assessment of operational efficiency of medical equipment in terms of different causes of the standby state. Systematization of causes of the standby state was implemented based on the performance data of different types of medical equipment. Managerial availability was developed as a measure of the operational efficiency of medical equipment, based on separatin
