Análise da disponibilidade de equipamentos médico-assistenciais após reestruturação da programação de manutenção preventiva em um hospital público de grande porte e alta complexidade

Abstract

The hospital organization currently uses several technologies, requering care and study of qualified professionals of Clinical Engineering. However, increasing the availability of technologies in Health Care Facilities (HCF) is always a great challenge. An important tool to find this objective is the programs of preventive maintenance (PM) of Medical Assistance Equipment (MAE). Thus, aiming to increase availability of MAE, this work presents the restructuring of PM programming, in a large public hospital with high complexity. The study was carried out at the Hospital of the Federal University of Uberlândia (HCU-UFU), using 11 Medical Assistance Equipment from 24 different families. The method used was based on the study of the operational and technical manuals of the equipment, current technical standards, previous preventive maintenance of the MAE, experience of the Clinical Engineering professionals of the HCU-UFU BioEngenharia and the needs of the HCF. Periodicity suggested in the manuals were altered due to the number of technicians available for maintenance, the quantity and availability of MAE, and the cost of parts and accessories for the execution of PM. Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) were also developed for each preventive maintenance of MAE. The preventive maintenance presented in this work are registered and it is working at HCU-UFU BioEngenharia and they are working effectively, which is confirmed by two ways. Firstly, analysis of the availability of 24 families of MAE, showed that 21 families had higher percentages of availability after implementation of the restructuring of the PM. Secondly, statistical analysis showed that the availability of the families of medical assistance equipment analyzed is greater after the restructuring of the preventive maintenance, with p-value < 0.05.
