Top 5 Medical Equipment Required by All Hospitals
2
INTRODUCTION

• To be ready for anything that may come through
  their doors, hospitals must stock an
  all-inclusive supply of medical equipment. For
  example, doctors' tables and chairs, an
  examination couch, and other shared resources
  such as BP apparatus, ECG machines, and
  thermometers are common items in an OPD
  consultation room. It is important to keep
  critical pieces of medical equipment ready to use
  in order to provide timely and complete care. The
  following article outlines the standard set of
  medical equipment required for hospitals to
  function properly.

Medical Equipment for Transport
and Storage

• For hospitals and other medical facilities,
  having a streamlined storage area is essential
  for day-to-day operations. Medicines, surgical
  kits, diagnostic tools, protective equipment,
  linens, and personal care items are among the
  many supplies kept in healthcare facilities.
  Healthcare providers can optimize their
  facilities for e?ciency and provide high-quality
  of patient care by implementing adequate medical
  equipment storage and maintenance tactics.
  Surgical case carts, storage carts, and utility
  carts are the most common types of equipment used
  to store and transport medical supplies.

Long-Lasting Hospital Medical Equipment

• Aside from transportation and storage equipment,
  a hospital must also have a sufficient supply of
  Durable Medical Equipment. This type of medical
  equipment is primarily used to provide
  therapeutic benefits for particular conditions
  and can assist a patient suffering from a
  disability, illness, or injury in living more
  independently. They are long-lasting, reusable,
  and built to last. Stretchers, manual/electric
  wheelchairs, assistive equipment such as walkers,
  canes, crutches, hospital beds, traction
  equipment, pressure mattresses, insulin pumps and
  nebulizers, patient lifts, oxygen tanks, and
  Lancet devices are examples of standard Durable
  Medical Equipment (DME).

Medical Diagnostic Equipment

• Diagnostic medical tools are utilized to diagnose
  the condition of the patient in a medical
  environment. To evaluate the patient, a test is
  conducted using the proper equipment based on the
  symptoms described. The doctor or technician will
  look for any abnormalities in the affected body
  parts that are causing the symptoms.
• The most fundamental medical equipment for
  diagnosing sick people include patient scales,
  stethoscopes, dopplers, and pulse oximeters. A
  cell counter, biochemistry analyzer, microscope,
  incubator, centrifuge, and refrigerator are
  common components of a stat lab. In addition, for
  maternity and general surgery/orthopedics, an
  X-ray and ultrasound machine is necessary.
  Smaller facilities that cannot avail of a digital
  X-ray can use an HF X-Ray in conjunction with a
  CR System to digitize the images. Healthcare
  facilities may also choose to put money into
  medical equipment devices such as computed
  tomography (CT scan), magnetic resonance imaging
  (MRI scan), and electrocardiogram machines,
  depending on their budget.

Life-Support / Critical Care Equipment

• As the name implies, life-support equipment
  includes medical devices designed to monitor and
  preserve a patient's bodily functions. Today,
  several life support machines are available in
  the medical field, including
• 1. Patient Monitors Patient monitors are medical
  equipment that tracks a patient's vitals and
  state of health, and other medical variables
  during rigorous or critical care. Patient
  monitors are an essential piece of medical
  equipment in any hospital. Constantly measuring
  specific parameters such as temperature, NIBP,
  SPO2, ECG, and ETCo2 can be used to monitor.
• 2. Infusion Pumps Infusion pumps are created to
  inject controlled amounts of fluids, medications,
  and other types of treatment into the patient's
  system on a regular basis. They are typically
  administered intravenously, but epidural and
  arterial infusions are also available.
• 3. Heart-lung machines Also known as
  cardio-pulmonary bypass (CB) devices, they
  provide extracorporeal blood and oxygen ?ow by
  temporarily acting as a patient's heart or lungs
  during surgery.

7
Surgery and Operation Room Equipment

• The accuracy of surgical instruments and
  equipment is essential for the success of a
  medical procedure. Surgical lights, tables,
  electrosurgical units, cautery machines,
  anesthesia machines, fluid warmers, and
  sterilizers are examples of such tools used in
  surgery. Surgical caps, gowns, gloves, or glasses
  (for the surgical team), as well as gauze and
  drapes, are also included (for patients). Keeping
  these on hand is crucially significant for the
  operational success of a hospital and the health
  care provided within it.
