Patient Monitor Calibration Drive Across ICU and Wards

Anonymized case study

Project background

Multiple departments used patient monitors with different makes, models and due dates, creating inconsistent record visibility.

This representative case study is written for hospitals, diagnostic centres, biomedical engineers and quality teams planning calibration, preventive maintenance, validation, electrical safety testing or audit documentation.

Approach

• Mapped monitors by department and asset number.
• Grouped calibration work by location to reduce movement.
• Updated labels and certificate references after completion.
• Shared a pending-list for devices unavailable during the visit.

Outcome

• Monitor calibration status became easier to track.
• Departments received clearer documentation for biomedical review.
• Unavailable equipment was not lost from the follow-up list.

Equipment involved

• Patient monitors
• Multipara monitors
