Özet:
As the technology improves rapidly, diagnosis and treatment devices that directly a ect human health increase in number and variety. Unfortunately, these devices carry their own risks. Any hazardous/defective device can harm user or patience; or mis-calibrated devices can give birth to wrong diagnosis and treatment. Thus, medical devices' proper selection, planned and in time periodic maintenance, repair and calibration processes become more of an issue. The aim of the study was to develop a medical device maintenance management software which would keep inventory of medical devices; their maintenance procedures and repair/maintenance histories; and would automate maintenance scheduling process, using the proper algorithm for maximum e ciency. Another aim was to make it possible to carry out and complete the maintenance process remotely, making use of proper maintenance procedures. In the proposed study, a medical device maintenance management system, MEDEMAS was designed and implemented which provides a data pool of medical devices, maintenance procedures and related information. The system also contains repair and maintenance history of devices. MEDEMAS creates optimal maintenance schedule for devices and enables to carry out and report maintenance processes via remote access. The study aims to make the maintenance process more accurate, e cient, faster and easier to manage and organize; and much less confusing. Accumulated history of the devices and personnel helps in risk management and replacement planning.|Keywords: Medical Device, Medical Device Maintenance, Calibration, Maintenance Procedure, Scheduling, Remote Access.
