Medical equipment archives are divided into paper archives and electronic archives, and the process of archive management collection, organization, identification, statistics, storage, and utilization is introduced. The article also discusses the construction, application, and management of archive management systems, aiming to provide a reference for solving the problems faced by refined management of medical equipment archives, achieving comprehensive and effective management of medical equipment archives, and significantly improving the level of archive utilization.
Objective To evaluate the refined management effect of diagnosis related groups (DRG), summarize the experience of refined management, and put forward corrective measures for existing problems. Methods Patients who underwent day surgery services at Shantou Central Hospital between April 2021 and March 2023 were selected. According to the management mode, patients will be divided into a conventional management group (April 2021 to March 2022) and a refined management group (April 2022 to March 2023). The general condition, medical quality, and patient satisfaction indicators of two groups of patients were compared. And according to the DRG group stratification, the differences in medical indexes such as length of hospital stay, total hospitalization expenses, and postoperative complications between the two groups were analyzed. Results A total of 4 584 patients were included, including 1 686 in the conventional management group and 2 898 in the refined management group. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of patient source, surgical grade, and provincial weight coefficient (P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in gender, age, and discharge method (P>0.05). The satisfaction of the refined management group with surgical procedures, preoperative guidance, service attitude, and nursing skills was higher than that of the conventional management group (P<0.05). A total of 4 DRG groups (≥ 100 patients) were included, with 2 215 patients in the refined management group and 1 460 patients in the conventional management group. Among them, there were 1496 cases in the group CB39 (cataract surgery), 336 cases in the group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years old), 1412 cases in the group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), and 431 cases in the group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries). Among them, in the group CB39 (cataract surgery), group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years old), group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), and group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries), the total hospitalization cost and length of stay in the refined management group were lower than those in the conventional management group (P<0.05). In the group CB39 (cataract surgery) and group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries), the incidence of postoperative complications in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05). In the group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years), the incidence of pain and incision bleeding in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05); In the group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), the incidence of incision infection in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in other indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Carrying out refined management for day surgery can reduce medical expenses, shorten the length of hospital stay, improve medical quality, and promote the high-quality development of hospitals while ensuring medical safety.
Objective To evaluate the effects of delicacy management applied in branch health management sub-center. Methods From July 2013 to December 2015, integrated delicacy management was applied throughout the whole process of the preparation for the establishment and the running of the branch health management sub-center. The strengths and weaknesses of the management, the management of the details and the control of the emphasis were analyzed. And the medical visits and incomes after the application of delicacy management were also analyzed. Results From July 2013 to December 2015, the monthly average medical visits were 1 870.17±609.93, 2 842.50±1 247.60 and 3 717.92±1 257.98, while the monthly average incomes were (2 136.0±585.1) thousand yuan, (3 620.5±1 559.9) thousand yuan and (4 921.1±1 837.2) thousand yuan, which increased significantly. Conclusion The application of delicacy management in the branch health management sub-center could ensure the quality of service, promote the steady growth of performance, and improve the understanding of the surrounding population of health management, thus we can improve the economic and social benefits of the health management sub-center.
Hospital trusteeship means that the property owners of the hospital, through the form of contract and for the purpose of value preservation and proliferation, authorize a corporation or human being with strong administrative management capabilities and risk-bearing abilities to manage the hospital. With the deepening medical reform, the model has been gradually widely used. In this context, a well-known public hospital became the trustee of a newly established comprehensive private hospital. Taking the greatest advantage of its medical quality management, the trustee used SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis to develop efficient decision-making mechanism, strengthened the process optimization transformation, and improved the innovative means of information technology for the development of the new hospital, which has achieved very good results.
Under the background of promoting day surgery nationwide and ensure the medical quality, fine management is crucial and in trend. As one of the earliest central health organizations that started day surgery service in China, West China Hospital of Sichuan University has conducted approximate 140 000 day surgery cases in the past nearly 10 years. Based on the experience of practice, West China Hospital of Sichuan University has summarized 26 clinical indicators from 5 aspects to evaluate and monitor the economic efficacy and medical quality and safety of day surgery, including the input and output, the efficiency, the patient experience, the medical quality and safety, and the difficulty evaluation of surgery. The aim is to explore and establish an appraisal and monitoring system for day surgery, promote the stable development of day surgery, improve the work efficiency, and take the government plan of implementation day surgery to improve medical services into action.
