Abstract
Objectives – to analyze the equipment of health care institutions, engaged in providing medical care to patients with cancer, with medical devices for diagnostic radiology.
Materials and methods. The data from official reporting forms of medical organizations in Saint Petersburg on the availability of medical equipment for diagnostic radiology were analyzed for the period of 5 years using a continuous sampling method. The obtained data were statistically processed with the calculation of statistical series, extensive and intensive indicators. The Student t-test was used to assess the statistically significant differences in indicators in individual years of observation.
Results. In the period from 2013 to 2018, the analysis showed an increase of the availability of diagnostic radiology devices in the medical organizations in St. Petersburg, particularly for ultrasound equipment – by 39.7%, x-ray machines – by 9.5%, CT machines – by 23.9%, MRI machines – by 16.6%, SPECT and PET devices. At the same time, a uniform increase in the number of ultrasound and x-ray medical equipment was observed in urban and Federal medical organizations, while the rate of "heavy" radiation medical equipment (CT, MRI, PET, SPECT) was higher in Federal medical institutions.
Conclusion. Despite the marked increase in the equipment of medical institutions, a significant part of medical radiation equipment has been in use for 10 years or longer (from 14.4% to 29.8% for certain types of medical equipment) and requires a scheduled replacement.
