Decisions to replace medical and in vitro diagnostic medical devices are often subjective, based largely on perception rather than factual data. In this work we developed a model recommending and prioritizing fume hoods replacement. A group of attribute and subattribute were chosen and weighted (using Saaty’s theory) to obtain a numerical output (Replacement Priority Value-RPV). This model is applied to simulated data. Results confirm that RPV is a reliable index that can be used to guide planning replacement of fume hoods.

Abstract

Decisions to replace medical and in vitro diagnostic medical devices are often subjective, based largely on perception rather than factual data. In this work we developed a model recommending and prioritizing fume hoods replacement. A group of attribute and subattribute were chosen and weighted (using Saaty’s theory) to obtain a numerical output (Replacement Priority Value-RPV). This model is applied to simulated data. Results confirm that RPV is a reliable index that can be used to guide planning replacement of fume hoods.
