ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical effects of continuous quality improvement (CQI) in the care of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 40 patients who received PICC treatment in our hospital between January and December 2011, and then we found out the main problems of PICC catheter care, analyzed the related factors for complications of PICC, and formulated corresponding nursing countermeasures. PICC receivers between January and December 2012 were regarded as controls. Then, we compared the complication incidence and satisfaction of patients between the two groups before and after the implementation of CQI. ResultsAfter the implementation of CQI, complication incidence was significantly lower (P<0.05). The satisfaction degree of patients toward caring rose to 87.8%, which was statistically significant (P<0.05). ConclusionThe implementation of CQI is beneficial to reduce complications of PICC treatment, and patients'satisfaction rate is also significantly increased.
ObjectiveTo explore the practical effects of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) management model in the management of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).MethodsIn 2015, the multi-drug resistant MDT was established, and MDT meetings were held regularly to focus on the problems in the management of MDROs and related measures to prevent and control nosocomial infections of MDROs.ResultsThe detection rate of MDROs from 2014 to 2017 was 9.20% (304/3 303), 7.11% (334/4 699), 8.01% (406/5 072), and 7.81% (354/4 533), respectively. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.803, P=0.008), in which the detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRABA), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) changed significantly (χ2=39.022, 17.052, 12.211; P<0.05). From 2014 to 2017, the proportion of multi-drug resistant infections decreased year by year, from 84.54% to 52.82%, and the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections also declined, from 46.05% to 23.16%; the nosocomial infection case-time rate decreased from 0.24% to 0.13% year-on-year; the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections in total hospital infections was 9.07%, 11.17%, 10.47%, and 6.16%, respectively; in the distribution of multi-drug resistant nosocomial infection bacteria, the proportion of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, CRABA, CRE hospital infections accounted for the number of MDROs detected decreased year by year. The use rate of antibiotics decreased from 46.58% in 2014 to 42.93% in 2017, and the rate of pathogens increased from 64.83% in 2014 to 84.59% in 2017.ConclusionThe MDT management mode is effective for the management and control of MDROs, which can reduce the detection rate, infection rate, hospital infection rate, and antibacterial drug use rate, increase the pathogen detection rate, and make the prevention and control of MDROs more scientific and standardized.
Objective To investigate the closing method of wound after removalof the traditional pedicled abdominal flap. Methods Accordingto the design,the pedicled abdominal flaps were cut and lifted, and then the incision were extended from both sides on base of the flap to anterior superior iliac spine, respectively. After separating on superficial fascia, two flaps were obtained. The wound of donor site was closed completely by these two pedicled flaps. Twelvepatients with skin defects on hands or forearms were treated using the reformedmethod of traditional pedicled abdominal flap. Results All of the 12 reformed pedicled abdominal flaps survived, and only one had local necrosis on the distalpart of the abdominal flap, about 1.5 cm ×2.0 cm. Conclusion This new designcould provide a good method to close the abdominal wound after removal of pedicled abdominal flap.
Objective To analyze the application of lean healthcare management in optimizing services in foreign operating rooms, and provide a theoretical reference for further optimizing service processes in domestic operating rooms with lean healthcare management. Methods PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched literature about lean healthcare management in optimizing foreign hospital operating room service process. The search period was from the establishment of databases to November 2024. The number of publications, publishing institutions, authors, citation frequencies, keywords, the use of lean management tools and the improvement status were analyzed.Results A total of 71 literatures were included. Among them, 17 literatures were published from 2008 to 2014, and the number of related literatures increased significantly since 2015, with 54 literatures published by 2024; 9 literatures were published by universities and 62 literatures were published by hospitals. In terms of the distribution of countries and regions where the literatures were published, there were 34 literatures from the United States, 12 from the United Kingdom, 5 from Italy, 4 from Switzerland, and 3 from Canada. The keywords basically presented the combination ofthemes related to operating room management and lean healthcare management improvement fields, such as lean six sigma, quality improvement, and operating room efficiency. The five lean tools with the highest frequency of occurrence in the 71 included literatures were value stream mapping, fishbone diagram, A3 report, PDCA cycle management, and 5S. Conclusions There is an imbalance in the development of lean healthcare management research, with the number of publications in developed countries being far higher than that in developing countries. Lean healthcare management is conducive to improving surgical safety, work efficiency, and patient-doctor satisfaction. Lean healthcare management should further adapt to the actual situation, unify the lean management indicators in operating rooms, conduct cross-departmental cooperation, maximize the effectiveness of lean improvement tools, and achieve modern medical management.
ObjectiveTo analyze and reduce the defects in nursing records for blood transfusion by continuous quality improvement (CQI) method, in order to prevent blood transfusion related medical disputes. MethodsIn October 2014, CQI team was established to analyze the reason for transfusion record defects and make standardized process and quality monitoring forms for nursing record of blood transfusion. Six months after the implementation of CQI, 40 records were randomly selected before the CQI implementation (April to September 2014) and after the implementation (April to September 2015) for comparison and analysis. ResultAfter 6 months of implementation of CQI, nursing record defects of blood transfusion decreased significantly from 228 to 55 items. ConclusionUsing CQI method can effectively reduce nursing record defects of blood transfusion. CQI can also improve the quality of nursing records and prevent medical disputes caused by blood transfusion.
