學用落差

(http://bme.freebbs.tw 醫學工程論壇 同步發表)


「學用落差因應策略論壇」---

面試亂穿、遲到也不講--->
這可能不是在大學就養成的,是生活及社會教育的氛圍所造成的,強調一如創意工作強調自由性及自主性,結果一堆人只看到舒適面,拿來一體適用,結果呢,就造成這種結果。

大學文憑沒有鑑別度--->
大學真的太多了,碩、博士也是快到這下場了。

機械系竟沒摸過馬達--->
產、官、學界的落差真的是有了,學校老師有時太偏研究,跟實務面脫節很多;所以機械系學生沒摸過馬達,我們醫工科系中電子相關學程的學生沒拿過或不會用烙鐵的,電子零件符號看不懂、不會分辨色碼阻值的有嗎,應該也是有的.......

我個人覺得,以醫工來說,可能有的老師可能太偏研究面,研發、了解產品。但醫工產業還有醫院這一環,醫院裡的醫工及各項制度,真的有多少老師在這方面了解,可以教給學生?
有專業證照加薪一萬---->
科大專注證照沒話說,大學除了研究也是要了解到現實面,但我們的證照呢..

一級召修Hospira Inc., GemStar Docking Station

(http://bme.freebbs.tw 醫學工程論壇 同步發表)

Hospira Inc., GemStar Docking Station (List Number 13075) – Potential for Error or Failure to Power Up (原出處)



搭配使用GemStart使用的Pump座 ,國內沒特別註記有這款QSD申請,但個人認為有時會被認為是配件沒特別申請,直接建議使用,如果各位醫院裡有類似的裝置,建議還是問一下原廠,RECALL的處理狀況。

特別是如果沒QSD的話,要記得撤下勿使用。因為藥事法己修訂,零件、配件、軟體都歸屬QSD管制範圍。


((國內引進的型號13000,13150。13086, 13087, 13088))


Recall Class: Class I
Date Recall Initiated: February 18, 2014
Product: GemStar Docking Station (List Number 13075), used in conjunction with GemStar Infusion Pump
The GemStar Docking Station is a separately sold accessory to the GemStar infusion pump and provides an alternate power source to the GemStar pump
The affected GemStar Docking Station was manufactured from July 2002 through March 2013 and distributed from July 2002 through December 2013.
搭配使用GemStart使用的Pump座 ,會影響所使用的PUMP型號如下表
The products affected by this recall are identified below:
Affected Docking Station ProductCodeWhen Used with These Models of Infusion PumpsWith the Affected List NumbersMay Result in the Following Malfunction
  13075GemStar Phase 3 Pumps13000, 13100, 13150Fail to Power Up
GemStar Phase 3 Pumps or
GemStar Phase 4 Pumps         
13000, 13100, 13150
13086, 13087, 130088
Error Code 11/003
Use: The GemStar Docking Station is used in the post-operative hospital setting where the GemStar pump provides pain/patient control anesthesia (PCA) infusion in combination with other GemStar Accessories. The GemStar pump is often used to inject anesthesia into the spine prior to giving birth. The GemStar pump can also be used for other general infusions such as IV medicines and feeding solutions, antibiotics and cardiovascular solutions.
Recalling Firm:
Hospira Inc.
275 N Field Dr
Lake Forest, Illinois 60045-2579
Reason for Recall:
The firm received customer reports of two potential malfunctions that may occur with the GemStar Docking Station. To date, there have been no reports of death or serious injury associated with these malfunctions.
When the docking station is used with a GemStar Phase 3 pump (List 13000, 13100 or 13150), the GemStar pump may fail to power up while connected to the docking station which may cause a delay of therapy.
When a GemStar Phase 3 pump (List 13000, 13100 or 13150) or GemStar Phase 4 pump (List 13086, 13087 or 13088) is used with both a docking station and an external battery pack accessory (List 13073), there is a possibility that the GemStar pump will display error code 11/003 which will trigger an audible alarm, indicating excessive input voltage (more than 3.6 Volts). The pump will then stop the infusion which may cause a delay of therapy.
The use of this affected product may cause serious adverse health consequences, including death.

More Information about this Recall: On February 18, 2014, Hospira sent an Urgent Medical Device Correction letter to all its direct customers. Customers are requested to complete and sign the reply form and return it to the fax number or email address on the form.
Hospira recommends the following:
There is no need to return the GemStar Docking Station at this time.
Healthcare professionals should weigh the risk/benefit to patients associated with the use of the device when administering critical therapies. Customers should consider the use of an alternative pump, particularly in patients in which a delay/interruption in/of therapy could result in serious injury or death.
1. To avoid a failure to power up, turn the pump on first, before connecting the pump with the docking
station. This will prevent the failure to power up.
2. To mitigate the potential for an 11/003 error code, remove the External Battery Pack accessory (list #13073) from the Docking Station and pump prior to installing the pump into the Docking
Station. If you use a Docking station in conjunction with an External Battery Pack accessory (list #13073), this practice should not continue. Please contact Hospira to discuss an appropriate alternative option.
3. Inform potential users in your organization of this notification.
4. Should your facility experience a failure to power up or an 11/003 error code, report the issue to Hospira by calling 1-800-441-4100 (M-F, 8am-5pm,CT) or email ProductComplaintsPP@hospira.com.
5. If you have distributed the product further to the retail level, notify your customers that received the product identified above of this notification and ask them to contact Stericycle at 1-
866-792-5451 (M-F, 8am-5pm ET) to receive a reply form.
About Class I Recalls:Class I recalls are the most serious type of recall and involve situations in which there is a reasonable probability that use of these products will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.
Health care professionals and consumers may report adverse reactions or quality problems they experienced using these products to MedWatch: The FDA Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program either online, by regular mail or by FAX.
