What is medical technology department?

The former Auxiliary Medical Department refers to the medical technical department that uses specialized medical technology and equipment to diagnose and treat diseases in collaboration with the clinical department. Because there is no hospital bed, no patient is received, it is also called a non-clinical department. Based on the nature of work and tasks, it can be divided into diagnosis-oriented or treatment-oriented departments, as well as supply-oriented departments. From a systematic perspective, the medical technology department is a technical support system in the hospital system. Therefore, it is an important part of the hospital.

The medical technology department has the following features:

(1) All work is centered around the clinic and is oriented to the hospital and serves all clinical departments. Although the medical technology department has its own system and forms part of the hospital, its business work is mainly to provide the basis for diagnosis and treatment for various clinical medical departments, or to cooperate with the treatment, it provides technical services directly or indirectly for outpatient, emergency, and inpatient patients, as well as scientific research and teaching services for the whole hospital. Clinical departments are highly dependent on medical technology departments, especially those that use advanced modern medical equipment. The technical level of the medical technology department, the advantages and disadvantages of the quality of work, and whether the results of the inspection report are accurate and timely directly affect the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, at the same time, it also affects the effectiveness of the hospital's medical, scientific research and teaching work. Each specific item is related to the quality of diagnosis and treatment in a clinical department. It can be seen that the medical technology department plays an important role in hospital medical care.

(2) The medical technology department is highly professional and relatively independent. Each medical technology department has its own professional division of labor and has its own work characteristics and rules. Even if different instruments and equipment are installed in different rooms in the same department, the operations and reports are independently completed and the work is independent. This requires that the technical staff must have strong business and technical capabilities and sense of responsibility, and have a serious and meticulous work style.

(3) use special instruments and technologies to carry out business work and provide objective basis for patient diagnosis and treatment. The main means of work in the medical technology department is various instruments and equipment, with a high level of workProgramIt depends on the advanced procedures and update cycle of the instruments and equipment, and also on the technical level and knowledge update speed of the technical staff of the medical technology department. With the rapid development of science and technology, this feature is particularly prominent.

(4) Each department of medical technology has many medical instruments and equipment, a short update cycle, and high requirements. The instruments and equipment of the medical technology department are the material basis and important symbol of hospital modernization. With the development of modern science and technology, the replacement of medical equipment is faster and faster, and the generation or generation has been updated in a few years. Each department and major has a variety of different functional instruments and equipment, the same professional and the same functional instruments and equipment, often different specifications and models, different operations. Equipment operation automation, remote control, and e-computer constitute the characteristics of different medical technology departments. In addition, each instrument and equipment requires a specific environment, construction and maintenance equipment, and corresponding specialized technical personnel for operation and maintenance management.
