Main Goal:
To design innovative, integrated and process oriented inventory management system to be used by various stakeholders, such as biomedical engineers, patients, healthcare professionals and healthcare management team.
Motivation:
Equipment Inventory Management System is an important component in effective management of healthcare infrastructure, such as medical equipments and other equipments in hospitals and clinics.
Due to advances in telemedicine and e-health technologies, hospitals and clinics are providing more advanced services in the patient’s homes, thus increasing number of medical equipments used by patients outside the hospital environment. Patients and Health professionals are using medical equipments in daily routines, and dependency over the usage of medical equipments is rising.
However, most of the today’s equipment inventory management system is tailored to the needs of biomedical engineers who perform maintenance of medical equipments, and provides very little services to the needs of clinics, patients and health management team.
