This article presents an integration project between the anesthetic station used in the step of trans-operative (life signals multiparameter monitor, anesthesia device and controlled target infusion pump) and the system of hospital information. The main goal of this project is to capture in an automatic way the vital signals from the medical equipment and the records trans-operatives and provide an anesthesia record to be storage in the patient’s electronic medical record (PEMR). The integration mode is through a gateway that execute the conversion of the machine - specific language into data/information of the HL7 standard. This interaction will allow to integrate data and information from multiparametric monitors, anesthesia devices, Controlled target Infusion pumps and the intra-operative anesthesiologist inputs.
– The medical equipments (EM) are increasingly decisive and essential in modern medicine and medical and hospital care. For the EM contribute effectively and to the health organizations to use them more productively, it is necessary to carry out the management of the life cycle of the same. A decisive factor in this cycle of life is to know when a piece of equipment must be replaced. It is observed the absence of defined and clear methods to assist in the clinical engineering and hospital management, in deciding and prioritizing which EM need to be replaced. This work demonstrates a practical application in an equipment park. As a result, the classification of EM as the prioritization of substitution was obtained with respect to diversity, quantity and cost of the equipment shown to be replaced. The application of this method may contribute to increased quality of installed equipment and budget planning of hospital investments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
