  • Abstract
    The Technical Services and the Medical Administration of the Hospitals of Trieste have been working for years to ensure the optimal functioning of the Medicine, Surgery, Diagnostics and Research services offered to the Patients and to the University in an 800-bed hospital complex, transforming and innovating the buildings and support installations. We have dedicated special attention to the technologies necessary to guarantee the continuity of the power supply to the electromedical devices, increasingly numerous in highly specialized hospitals. We report our electricity consumption and the power of the generator sets and the UPS and our opinion that their power must be related to the overall consumption of the Hospital, with a reserve margin.
