Applying QR Code Technology to Facilitate Hospital Medical Equipment Repair Management

Quick response (QR) codes provide a rapid, easy, convenient, accurate, and automatic data collection method. With the increasing application and popularization of wireless communication and mobile device technology, two-dimensional barcode technologies have been employed for production, logistics, and sales. To apply the benefits of technology to the medical field, for this study, we used various applications of QR code in a hospital medical equipment repair management system. The main goal was to enable equipment or facility engineers to rapidly obtain detailed equipment information and return the medical equipment to normal operations. The experiment results indicate that method developed in this study can significantly improve the efficiency of medical equipment repairs, ensure engineers receive the correct information, shorten the Web site process time, and highlight the significance of solving such problems. The research in its actual state will be full support tool for the repair of medical equipment management. The results of both tests allow stating that from the point of view of efficiency and saving cost, the new system is fast and economical, making it highly competitive with exiting repair management system.
