Using data mining techniques to determine whether to outsource medical equipment maintenance tasks in real contexts
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the maintenance of medical equipment should be outsourced (or not). For this, we used data mining techniques called decision trees. We (1) collected 2364 maintenance works orders from 62 medical devices installed in a 900-bed hospital; (2) then we r...
