- W2037828899 abstract "A healthcare facility in Milwaukee, WI was in the final stages of preparation to launch an electronic medical record (EMR) initiative involving mobile computing workstations. Much earlier in the project, a software issue forced the mobile workstations to sit idly in storage for almost two years. When the time came to launch the project, none of the 42 workstations started. After troubleshooting, the healthcare technology management (HTM) staff determined that the batteries within the carts were “faulty.” Further investigation revealed that the batteries were not properly maintained during the two years they were stored. The clinical engineers went back to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), but were told the batteries were out of warranty and would need to be replaced. The replacement cost totaled almost $28,000. Already under a tight budget, they were not going to be able to afford the huge cost. They were left with a hard decision—figure out where else to cut costs in order to come up with the additional $28,000 or delay the project even further until the budget was available. If the staff had identified that the batteries were nickel metal hydride (NiMH), they would have had been aware of the high rate of self-discharge and known that they required maintenance during storage. This knowledge could have saved the facility time and money. As demonstrated in this case, HTM departments cannot afford unexpected costs and delays associated with product failures due to improper maintenance and storage. Every year, departments are asked to do more with a smaller budget and fewer resources, making it imperative to find ways to save money and time. A commonly overlooked source of savings is proper battery maintenance. The benefits of proper maintenance include prolonged battery life, which can extend the replacement interval, and overall higher peak performance for longer periods of time. To maximize battery efficiency and performance, proper battery identification is paramount. Identifying battery chemistry, application, and proper maintenance will ensure a long and productive lifecycle. Lastly, coupling this knowledge with the proper battery charger or analyzer will help any department turn concept into tangible savings. About the Author" @default.
