    Importante:
    Starting with the Xanadu release, Healthcare Computerized Maintenance Management System is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer activated on new instances but will continue to be supported. For details on the deprecation process, see the Deprecation Process [KB0867184] article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.

    To use maintenance and servicing workflows or inventory and management workflows, please see Clinical Device Management.

    The playbook experience provides fulfillers with visibility into cross-business workflows and the actionable activities used to complete these workflows. When the playbook experience is activated with Workspace in Healthcare CMMS, the Playbook tab appears for a medical device in-service case. For more information on how to interact with a playbook, see Interact with Playbook.

    As a clinical engineer with the sn_hcls_cmms.clinical_engineer role, you can use the Healthcare CMMS playbook to complete all medical device in-service activities for a medical device. You can access the Playbook tab on your Workspace when a medical device in-service case is assigned to you. The Healthcare CMMS workflow populates the case data for all launched activities on the Playbook tab. You can select a stage in the playbook to complete the activities associated with the stage.

    By default, the following stages are available to you as a clinical engineer with the sn_hcls_cmms.clinical_engineer role on the Playbook tab of the Workspace.

When the risk assessment is completed, the risk score is displayed for the device. For more information, see Assess the risks when setting a medical device in-service.

      After the medical device is reviewed, a work order for the initial inspection for each device included in the model is created automatically.

    2. Review work orders: Mark this step as complete when a technician completes the work order associated with the device. You can also view all work orders associated with the medical device model or create another work order by clicking View all.

    Reviewing maintenance plans

    In the Maintenance plans stage of the playbook, review the schedule of the maintenance plan for the device that is automatically populated from the medical device model.

    In the Review and confirm stage of the playbook, complete the Close case activity by waiting until all other activities are completed, and then selecting a resolution code and adding any resolution notes.
    Nota:
