There are three more recommended classifications of medical equipment, namely, diagnostic medical equipment, therapeutic equipment and auxiliary equipment.
1. Diagnostic equipment can be divided into eight categories: X-ray diagnostic equipment, ultrasonic diagnostic equipment, functional inspection equipment, endoscopy equipment, nuclear medicine equipment, laboratory diagnostic equipment and pathological diagnostic equipment.
2. Therapeutic equipment can be divided into 10 categories: ward nursing equipment (patient beds, carts, oxygen cylinders, gastric lavage machines, needle-free syringes, etc.); surgical equipment (operating beds, lighting equipment, surgical instruments and various tables and racks) , Stools, cabinets, also including microsurgery equipment); radiotherapy equipment (contact therapy machine, shallow therapy machine, deep therapy machine, accelerator, 60 cobalt therapy machine, radium or 137 cesium intracavitary therapy and after-installation device therapy, etc. ); Nuclear medicine treatment equipment-treatment methods include internal radiation treatment, application treatment and colloid treatment; physical and chemical equipment (generally can be divided into phototherapy business, electrotherapy equipment, ultrasound treatment and sulfur therapy equipment 4 categories); laser equipment- Medical laser generator (commonly used are ruby laser, helium-neon laser, carbon dioxide laser, argon ion laser and YAG laser, etc.); dialysis treatment equipment (commonly used artificial kidneys include flat-plate artificial kidneys and tubular artificial kidneys); Body temperature freezing equipment (semiconductor cold knife, gas cold knife, solid cold knife, etc.); first aid equipment (cardiac defibrillation and pacing equipment, artificial ventilator, ultrasonic nebulizer, etc.); other treatment equipment (hyperbaric oxygen chamber, ophthalmology high Frequency electric chromium, electromagnetic iron absorber, vitreous cutter, blood separator, etc.). These all belong to the special treatment equipment of each department, and can be divided into a separate category if necessary.
3. Auxiliary equipment can be divided into the following categories: disinfection and sterilization equipment, refrigeration equipment, central suction and oxygen supply system, air conditioning equipment, pharmaceutical machinery equipment, blood bank equipment, medical data processing equipment, medical video and photography equipment, etc.
medical instruments
The medical equipment in the hospital can be divided into three categories, namely diagnostic, therapeutic and medical equipment.The medical equipment necessary for medical equipment is classified according to the different requirements of each level.
Diagnostic equipment can be divided into the following categories: Physical diagnostic equipment (thermometers, blood pressure meters, microscopes, audiometers, various physiological recorders, etc.), imaging (X-ray machines, CT scans, magnetic resonance, B-ultrasound, etc.), analytical instruments (various types of counters) , Biochemical, immunological analysis equipment, etc.), electrophysiology (such as electrocardiograph, EEG, electromyography, etc.).
The treatment equipment category can be divided into the following categories
Ordinary surgical instruments, light-guided surgical instruments (fiber endoscopes, laser treatment machines, etc.); auxiliary surgical instruments (such as various anesthesia machines, ventilators, extracorporeal circulation, etc.); radiotherapy machines (such as deep X-ray treatment machines, cobalt 60 Treatment machine, accelerator, gamma knife, various isotope treatment devices, etc.); other types (microwave, hyperbaric oxygen, etc.).
The grade requirements of medical equipment necessary for hospitals can be divided into the following three categories
The first category refers to medical devices whose safety and effectiveness can be ensured through routine management; the second category refers to medical devices whose safety and effectiveness should be controlled; and the third category refers to medical devices that are implanted in the human body and used To support and maintain life; medical devices that are potentially dangerous to the human body and whose safety and effectiveness must be strictly controlled.
It is worth noting that if a medical device contains Category 1 and Category 2, then the medical device belongs to Category 3. By analogy, everyone can come to the same conclusion.
Various simple household medical devices, such as clinical thermometers, stethoscopes, blood pressure monitors, etc., with the development of electronic technology, automatic and semi-automatic electronic household medical devices such as electronic blood pressure monitors, blood glucose testers, and electronic clinical thermometers have been put on the market.
