Abstract

Aiming to apply quality control instruments derived from Production Engineering in the processing of materiais in a Supply Center and Sterilization Unit, two indicators were used: Speed and Reliability. This is a quantitative, exploratory and descriptive study that evaivated two indexes in the processing of dressing packets and micronebulizers in 19 processing cycles. The Production Speed Index of dressing packets had a mean of 213.7 minutes(standard deviation 44.9 and Coefficient of Variation 21%) and the micro nebulizer,157.2 minutes (standard deviation 26.7and Coefficient of Variation 17 %). TheReliabiiity index of the dressing packets was below the necessary to meet the demand (Pearson 's correlation coefficient 2.16%) and the Reliability index for the micro nebulizer proved to be lower than required, even with Pearsons correlation coefficient at 79.95%. This study demonstrated the importance of using Production Engineering tools to improve the processes and results of a Supply Center and Sterilization Unit.
