Computerized Preventive Maintenance Management System (CPMMS) for Haematology Department Equipments

Abstract

Medical devices and equipment have become very complex and are expected to operate under stringent environments. Equipment's should be properly maintained in order to fulfil their objectives. The signs of equipment's failure may not be apparent to clinical staff. Therefore they should be inspected periodically. Scheduled inspections help ensure the safety and efficacy of the medical equipment. A software tool is developed to implement a risk oriented prioritization of devices for equipment maintenance. First establishing an effective, efficient Computerized Preventive Maintenance Management System, collecting the data of equipments in laboratories and implement them to the system. The reports based on the inspection results, help determining a better maintenance's schedule.
