Technical explanation
What it means
Biomedical teams often prepare calibration, preventive maintenance, inventory and electrical safety records as part of NABH audit readiness.
Why it matters
- Encourages controlled biomedical equipment documentation.
- Supports review of calibration, PM, breakdown and corrective action records.
- Helps hospitals track equipment status and risk.
- Improves audit-facing evidence for biomedical departments.
How hospitals and biomedical teams use it
- Maintain a current equipment inventory.
- Keep calibration certificates and due-date trackers ready.
- Document PM visits, breakdowns and corrective actions.
- Review expired calibration or missing records before assessment.
