With the health care environment growing increasingly stringent, hospitals are closely scrutinizing decisions regarding acquisition of medical technology. During this process, physicians and nurses should be involved with hospital management in an orderly, equitable decisionmaking process. Hospital resources should be allocated to those items of medical instrumentation that improve patient care and that can be cost justified. Therefore, hospital management must receive from physicians, nurses, and other medical technology users information concerning such factors as installation requirements and cost, projected utilization, and estimated useful life. Management also looks to physicians and nurses to ensure that mechanisms exist for approving the introduction of new medical instrumentation, training users, and ensuring that privileges are consistent with training. Careful planning, incorporating as much quantifiable data as possible, can benefit all concerned by enabling the hospital team to acquire the most useful medical instrumentation for its money.
随着医疗保健环境日益严格，医院正在密切审查有关医疗技术购置的决策。在此过程中，医生和护士应参与医院管理，进行有序、公平的决策过程。医院资源应分配给那些能改善患者护理且成本合理的医疗仪器设备。因此，医院管理层必须从医生、护士和其他医疗技术使用者那里获取有关诸如安装要求和成本、预计利用率以及估计使用寿命等因素的信息。管理层还期望医生和护士确保存在批准新医疗仪器引进、培训使用者以及确保特权与培训相一致的机制。精心规划，尽可能纳入可量化数据，通过使医院团队能用钱购置最有用的医疗仪器，可为所有相关方带来益处。
