Health bodies typically own and maintain thousands of items of medical equipment. Medical equipment can perform numerous functions such as diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, investigation and treatment. It is therefore vital that health bodies manage their medical equipment in such a way as to ensure patient safety and high quality care. Medical equipment, as defined by the National Audit Office, includes all medical devices connected to patients as part of their treatment and care in hospital, and medical devices used for diagnostic and laboratory purposes.
