Abstract

To describe how the use of the QR Code can be used to perform the calibration of medical equipment, explaining the countless possibilities that this tool possessed. This study with a focus on literature that makes the exposure from the use of the QR Code as a tool for medical and hospital care, providing show that this use generates the union of requirements of quality and reliability for an effective care, in the implementation of controls in several areas. The application of software to read QR Code enables you have the formation of codes patterns that are intended to control processes in various areas, and for medical equipment, the perfect functioning and calibration are fundamental, easing that has the tracking of equipment, checking the clip for proper maintenance of the same, being this maintenance or calibration even in the face of failures, leading to reduction in the time of displacement of technicians, in use of the QR Code in applications for mobile phones or tablets that directs users to automatically check for conference of the information contained in the code.  The study concluded that the use of the QR Code enables greater agility in calibration of medical equipment.
