ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To promote the safe use of Heparin sodium injection for children. METHODS:According to litera-ture retrieve,questionnaire survey and field investigation,Health care failure mode and effect analysis method(HFMEA)was ad-opted to search for the failure modes of Heparin sodium injection for children,and preventive strategies were established and imple-mented based on these failure modes. Its effects were evaluated by comparing the error rate and risk priority number rating (RPN value)before and after the implementation. RESULTS:Totally 5 risk points of Heparin sodium injection requiring immediate inter-vention were obtained from RPN value,including wrong dose of Heparin sodium injection in prescribing,pharmacists'unclearness for the calculation method of the dose of Heparin sodium injection in dispensing,and nurses'no performing of double check sys-tem before infusion in administration,etc. After implementing related countermeasures,related error of Heparin sodium injection was decreased from 8 cases to 1 case,and error rate was declined from 3.76% to 0.51%(P<0.01). The RPN values of 5 failure modes were decreased from 112.08,91.56,115.78,94.52,99.23 to 28.02,23.91,27.71,23.63,20.55,respectively. CONCLU-SIONS:HFMEA can prospectively conduct systematical analysis for Heparin sodium injection for children. Implementing related countermeasures based on the current situation of our hospital can reduce the related error of Heparin sodium injection and promote the medication safety of children.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the assessment index system of internal medicine, and to analyze the factors of practical effects on internal medicine. Methods The assessment index system of clinical skills was developed by expert group based on the clinical syllabus and objectives. Internal medicine index system was divided into four items such as history-taking, physical examination, hos-pital records and case questions. 49 five-year clinical interns who took internal medicine exams were researched. Reliability, validity, discrimination, difficulty were used to analyze the quality of assess-ment index system. Gender, teaching hospital and the preparation of postgraduate examination were used to explore the influencing factors of practical effects with independent t-test and Wilcoxon signed rank tests. Results The reliability, discrimination, difficulty of the assessment index system were 0.50, 0.15 and 0.85, respectively. The removing item coefficient of history collection, physical ex-amination, hospital records, case questions were 0.38, 0.26, 0.47 and 0.53, separately, and the discrimination were 0.18, 0.17,0.27 and 0.37, separately, and the difficulty were 0.87, 0.89, 0.79, and 0.78, respectively. The scores of assessment index system of girls were higher than those of the boys(P0.05). The students who prepared the postgraduate examination scored lower than the others(P<0.05). Conclusions The assessment index system of internal medicine is reason-able and reliable, but the assessment of case questions still needs to be standardized. Teaching hospi-tals have little effect on internship while gender and the preparation for postgraduate examination influence practice effects in internal medicine.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on hemodynamics during induction of anesthesia in the patients with atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate undergoing noncardiac surgery.Methods Fifty patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease complicated with atrial fibrillation,aged 45-64 yr,weighing 50-75 kg,with ventricular rate ≥ 90 bpm,of ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲll (NYHA Ⅱ or Ⅲ),scheduled for elective surgery,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =25 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Dexmedetomidine 0.6 μg/kg was infused intravenously at 10 min prior to induction of anesthesia in group D.Anesthesia was induced with iv midazolam 0.06 mg/kg,sufentanil 0.6 μg/kg,and vecuronium 0.12 mg/kg.Tracheal intubation was performed when the BIS value≤≤ 55After admission to operating room (T0,baseline),immediately after the end of dexmedetomidine infusion (T1),immediately before intubation (T2),and at 1,3 and 5 min after intubation (T3-5),SP,DP,MAP and HR were recorded.The adverse cardiovascular events were recorded starting from induction of anesthesia to 5 min after intubation.Results Compared with the baseline value at T0,HR was significantly decreased at T2,5,while increased at T3,4 in group C,and HR was decreased at T1-5 in group D; SP,DP and MAP were decreased at T2,5,while increased at T3 in group C,and no significant changes were found in the indices mentioned above in group D.Compared with group C,the incidence of hypotension,hypertension and tachycardia was significantly decreased,and no significant changes were found in theincidence of bradycardia in group D.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine 0.6 μg/kg infused intravously is helpful in maintaining the hemadynamics stable during induction of anesthesia in the patients with atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate underging noncardiac surgery.
