Abstract(s)
Este estudo divide-se em duas partes principais. A primeira consiste numa revisão scoping intitulada "Revisão Scoping da Filosofia Lean Maintenance no Setor da Saúde", com o objetivo de compreender o estado atual da aplicação do Lean Maintenance em instituições de saúde. Escrito no formato da revista TMQ, o artigo identifica práticas existentes, lacunas na literatura e os principais desafios e benefícios associados à implementação desta metodologia em contextos hospitalares. Apesar do reconhecimento do Lean por melhorar a eficiência e reduzir desperdícios, a sua aplicação específica como Lean Maintenance ainda é pouco explorada na área da saúde. Logo, constatou-se uma significativa falta de estudos sobre o Lean Maintenance na saúde. A revisão evidencia a necessidade de mais investigações sobre os benefícios diretos desta abordagem para a eficiência e a qualidade dos serviços hospitalares. A segunda parte centra-se na aplicação prática dos princípios do Lean Maintenance à gestão de stocks em electromedicina, um setor crítico para o funcionamento eficiente dos hospitais. Avaliou-se o impacto da metodologia na eficiência operacional, redução de desperdícios e melhoria da disponibilidade de equipamentos médicos essenciais. Os resultados mostraram ganhos significativos, que contribuíram para a redução de erros operacionais e custos. Conclui-se que a aplicação do Lean Maintenance na saúde proporciona benefícios importantes, como maior eficiência operacional, redução de desperdícios e melhor disponibilidade de recursos. Apesar de desafios como a resistência inicial à mudança, esta abordagem revela-se estratégica para promover a excelência e a sustentabilidade organizacional, além de aumentar a satisfação de pacientes e profissionais. Em síntese, o Lean Maintenance demonstra potencial para otimizar recursos e melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados em diferentes contextos hospitalares.
Abstract This study is divided into two main parts. The first part consists of a scoping review entitled "Scoping Review of the Lean Maintenance Philosophy in the Healthcare Sector", aiming to understand the current state of Lean Maintenance application in healthcare institutions. Written in the TMQ journal format, the article identifies existing practices, gaps in the literature, and the main challenges and benefits associated with the implementation of this methodology in hospital contexts. Although Lean is widely recognized for improving efficiency and reducing waste, its specific application as Lean Maintenance remains underexplored in healthcare. Consequently, a significant lack of studies on Lean Maintenance in this sector was identified. The review highlights the need for further research into the direct benefits of this approach for the efficiency and quality of hospital services. The second part focuses on the practical application of Lean Maintenance principles to stock management in electromedicine, a critical sector for the efficient operation of hospitals. The methodology's impact on operational efficiency, waste reduction, and the availability of essential medical equipment was assessed. The results revealed significant improvements, which contributed to reducing operational errors and costs. In conclusion, the application of Lean Maintenance in healthcare provides important benefits, such as greater operational efficiency, waste reduction, and better resource availability. Despite challenges such as initial resistance to change, this approach proves to be a strategic tool for promoting organizational excellence and sustainability, as well as enhancing the satisfaction of patients and professionals. In summary, Lean Maintenance demonstrates potential to optimize resources and improve the quality of care across different hospital contexts.
