Abstract(s)
A gestão eficiente dos Equipamentos Médicos com Função de Medição (EMFM) é
determinante para assegurar a qualidade e a segurança dos cuidados de saúde. Este projeto
aborda a transição da plataforma Health Metrology (HM) para a plataforma de Gestão Hospitalar
de Armazéns e Farmácia (GHAF) na Unidade Local de Saúde de Santo António (ULSSA). A
necessidade de implementar um módulo de manutenção preventiva e calibração no GHAF
identificou-se como uma solução para centralizar, automatizar e melhorar a gestão dos EMFM,
minimizando os riscos associados a processos manuais e garantindo a conformidade com as
normas regulamentares.
O estudo analisa os principais desafios dessa implementação, incluindo a migração de
dados, a padronização de processos e a criação de protocolos de manutenção e calibração. A
investigação incluiu inventariações detalhadas dos equipamentos nos Serviços Farmacêuticos e
no CoreLab (como Serviços piloto), verificando a precisão dos dados e identificando falhas a
serem corrigidas na nova plataforma. Além disso, realizou-se uma análise crítica das
funcionalidades do GHAF, destacando áreas de melhoria e adaptação, e desenvolvida uma
estratégia para capacitar os utilizadores no uso eficiente do novo módulo.
Para garantir a eficácia da transição, o projeto centrou-se na aplicação de metodologias
baseadas em evidências para a manutenção e calibração dos equipamentos, priorizando a
rastreabilidade, a eficiência operacional e o cumprimento das normas de qualidade. A integração
deste módulo no GHAF possibilita um ambiente hospitalar mais seguro, enquanto otimiza os
recursos e aprimora os processos de gestão.
Este trabalho contribui para o desenvolvimento de uma abordagem mais segura e
eficiente na gestão dos EMFM, oferecendo benefícios diretos à qualidade dos cuidados
prestados aos utentes e destacando a importância da inovação tecnológica na melhoria contínua
dos processos hospitalares.
Efficient management of Medical Equipment with Measuring Functions (EMFM) is crucial to ensure the quality and safety of healthcare services. This project addresses the transition from the Health Metrology (HM) platform to the Hospital Management of Warehouses and Pharmacy (GHAF) platform at the Local Health Unit of Santo António (ULSSA). The need to implement a preventive maintenance and calibration module in GHAF was identified as a solution to centralize, automate, and improve the management of EMFM, minimizing the risks associated with manual processes and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. The study analyzes the main challenges of this implementation, including data migration, process standardization, and the creation of maintenance and calibration protocols. The research included detailed equipment inventories in the Pharmaceutical Services and the CoreLab (as pilot services), verifying data accuracy and identifying issues to be addressed in the new platform. Furthermore, a critical analysis of GHAF functionalities was conducted, highlighting areas for improvement and adaptation, and a strategy was developed to train users in the efficient use of the new module. To ensure the effectiveness of the transition, the project focused on applying evidencebased methodologies for the maintenance and calibration of equipment, prioritizing traceability, operational efficiency, and compliance with quality standards. The integration of this module into GHAF enables a safer hospital environment while optimizing resources and enhancing management processes. This work contributes to the development of a safer and more efficient approach to EMFM management, providing direct benefits to the quality of care delivered to patients and emphasizing the importance of technological innovation in the continuous improvement of hospital processes.
