Abstract

To evaluate the role of metrology in health care facilities, we conducted a study to identify and analyze issues that arise when the concept of metrological traceability is applied to hospital facilities. Survey data were collected from 44 Portuguese hospitals. The results allowed us to identify some key metrological indicators that pertain to hospitals, and to conclude that
metrological traceability is absent from the daily considerations of health care professionals and facilities.
