ABSTRACT
Objective To study the application value of 5S management for the instrument management in ENT department.Methods Totally 20 instrument nurses in ENT department implementing 5S management were enrolled into an observation group,and another 20 nurses using conventional management method were involved in a control group.The two groups were compared on instrument management quality and instrument nursing management satisfaction.Results The observation group had the qualification rate of sampled sterile items,qualification rate of instrument packaging,qualification rate of instrument cleaning,efficiency of instrument application,instrument preparedness,standardized instrument allocation,intact rate of prepared instrument as well as the familiarity with instrument management and operation significantly better than those in the control group (P＜0.05).The time consumed for adding instrument,finding instrument,environment arrangement and finding expired goods in the observation group was statistically shorter than that in the control group (P＜0.05).The times of instrument set repeated disinfection in the observation group was obviously less than those in the control group (P＜0.05),and the satisfaction over nursing management in the observation group was also significantly better than that in the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion 5S management gains high application values for instrument management in ENT department,and thus is worthy promoting clinically.
