Performance tracking of equipment use

Purpose

1.1. Automate real-time performance tracking of emergency room equipment to ensure availability, efficiency, rapid maintenance, and compliance in trauma care settings.
1.2. Automates the aggregation of equipment usage, alerts for maintenance, tracks idle or over-utilized assets, and ensures data logging for audits and resource optimization.
1.3. Automatedly enables evidence-based resource assignment and reduces downtime by automating asset condition reporting and predictive alerts.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Automated check-in/out of equipment using RFID or barcode scans.
2.2. Scheduled intervals for status reports (hourly, daily, shift-based).
2.3. Threshold alarms based on usage hours, temperature, battery level, or maintenance schedules.
2.4. Incident-based automation (e.g., equipment moved, vital failure detected, new patient admitted).
