Journal of Medical Systems Aug 18, 2017
Gurbeta L, et al. – Authors performed testing of anesthesia machines and defibrillators in healthcare institutions to improve the quality of patient treatment by improving the functionality of medical devices in healthcare institutions. They recognized that in 13.84% of tested anesthesia machine and 14.91% of defibrillators device performance is not in accordance with requirements and should either have its results be verified, or the device removed from use or scheduled for corrective maintenance. They reinforced the importance of independent safety and performance inspections, and gave recommendations for the frequency of inspection based on measurements. On the basis of collected data, the first digital electronical database of anesthesia machines and defibrillators used in healthcare institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina was created. Observations demonstrated the utility of this database for tracking each deviceÂs performance over time.
