Common problems and treatment methods of medical devices in use can be summarized as follows:

I. Common problems
Improper operation
Unskilled operation: There are many types of medical devices, and the methods of use vary. If the operation is not skilled, it may lead to improper use, affect the efficacy or even cause accidental injury.
Violation of operating procedures: Failure to operate according to the operating guide or instructions of the medical device may cause damage to the equipment or injury to the patient.
Ignoring alarm information: During the operation, ignoring the alarm information or fault prompt issued by the equipment may cause the equipment failure to expand or the patient to be injured.
Equipment failure
The equipment cannot be started or operates abnormally: it may be caused by power failure, internal circuit damage, etc.
Equipment damage: Long-term use or improper operation may cause equipment wear, cracking or deformation.
Accuracy change: Wear of mechanical parts leads to reduced equipment accuracy, affecting the diagnosis or treatment effect.
Insufficient maintenance
Neglecting regular maintenance: Failure to perform regular maintenance on medical devices as required, such as replacing wearing parts, adjusting parameters, etc., may cause equipment damage or unstable performance.
Neglecting daily maintenance: Failure to perform necessary cleaning, lubrication, inspection, etc., resulting in equipment performance degradation or failure.
Improper selection
Wrong equipment selection: Inappropriate equipment is selected without fully considering factors such as the patient's condition and physique.
Wrong parameter setting: When using medical devices, incorrect parameter settings may lead to poor treatment effects or harm to patients.
Wrong accessories selection: Inappropriate accessories or consumables may cause damage to the equipment or harm to patients.
Poor management
Improper storage: Medical devices are not stored as required, such as stacking too high, heavy objects pressing, etc., which may cause deformation or damage to the equipment.
Lack of operating license: The operation of some high-risk medical devices requires the corresponding license. If they are operated without a legal license, legal risks may be involved.
2. Treatment methods
Strengthen operation training
Before using new medical devices, medical staff should be fully trained and learned to master the correct use methods.
Regularly attend training courses to keep skills updated and ensure proficient and compliant operations.
Standardized operation procedures
Strictly follow the operating manual and instructions of the medical device and comply with the operating procedures.
During the operation, pay close attention to the status of the equipment and respond to alarm information and fault prompts in a timely manner.
Regular maintenance and upkeep
Perform regular maintenance and upkeep on medical devices as required, including replacement of wearing parts, parameter adjustment, cleaning, lubrication, inspection, etc.
Establish a complete maintenance and upkeep record to ensure that the equipment is in good condition.
Reasonable selection and configuration
When selecting medical devices, fully consider factors such as the patient's condition and physique, and select suitable equipment.
Accurately set equipment parameters to ensure treatment effectiveness and safety.
Use appropriate accessories and consumables to avoid equipment damage or patient injury.
Strengthen management and supervision
Establish a complete medical device management system to standardize the storage, use and maintenance of equipment.
Regularly inventory and inspect medical devices to prevent expired and invalid equipment from being misused.
Strengthen supervision and management of medical personnel to ensure that they have legal operating licenses and comply with relevant regulations.
In summary, the treatment methods for common problems in the use of medical devices involve multiple aspects, including strengthening operation training, standardizing operation procedures, regular maintenance and upkeep, reasonable selection and configuration, and strengthening management and supervision. The implementation of these measures can effectively reduce the occurrence of problems in the use of medical devices and improve medical quality and safety.
