The document discusses creating a medical equipment specifications database using the Universal Medical Device Nomenclature System (UMDNS) as an alternative to the expensive ECRI Institute database. It would obtain equipment data from UMDNS, assign unique codes to avoid copyright issues, and write specifications. This database would help medical equipment planning companies and the Ministry of Health with tasks like loaded floor plans and room data sheets. Any questions about the project would be addressed.
