Abstract
Results Of 38 surveyed persons only two doctors could operate the echograph. 3 persons of 38 (7.89%) were abele to select the right parameters for the use of the equipment. Test of use is not carried out by 20 agents (52.63%), including 11 persons that manipulate equipment of sterilization and medical imagery. 14 agents carry out the act badly including 5 technicians’ that manipulate radiograpies what explains the important loss of simages. Only 8 agents (21.05%) turn the equipment off after work. 18 agents do not carry out maintenance of the material after use including 9 users of radiography and echography. Conclusion The problem of maintenance at the hospital Gabriel Toure is a crucial question. The constraints related to the management of the large equipment at the hospital Gabriel Toure relate to several spects: the deficit of information, the absence of supervision and framing, the insufficiency of sensibilzation, the deficit of the actors implied in information and adapted know-how, the weakness of financial means and material allocated, the insufficiency of clear and codified directives fixing the conditions of use of the equipment. We recommend an internal reorganization of the service of maintenance, the programming of regular supervision, the development and the implementation of the management tools of maintenance.
