Analysis of operation efficiency and resource allocation of clinical departments in a hospital based on data envelopment andlysis / 中华医院管理杂志

Objective:To establish a calculation model for the operational efficiency and resource allocation of clinical departments in hospitals, for references for hospitals to optimize resource allocation.Methods:The informations including hospitalization time, nursing grade, etc. of inpatients admitted by 32 clinical departments in a tertiary public hospital from January to December in 2021 were extracted. A data envelopment analysis method was conducted on the operation efficiency and input edundancy of the departments. The K-means algorithm was used to divide inpatients into 3 categories according to the level of medical workload. Taking the numbers of doctors, nurses and beds as the input indicators, and the numbers of patients in the 3 categories as the output indicators, a BCC model 1 was established to evaluate the efficiency of resources invested by clinical departments into professional human value. At the same time, a BCC model 2 was established with the total number of patients admitted and medical income as the output indicators to evaluate the efficiency of resources invested by clinical departments into economic benefits.Results:A total of 38 147 inpatients were enrolled. There were 14 departments with overall technical efficiency (OTE) =1.000 in the BCC model 1, 10 departments with OTE=1.000 in the BCC model 2, and 8 departments with OTE=1.000 in the 2 models. As for the input redundancy, 6 departments had high input redundancy in the BCC model 1, 11 departments had high input redundancy in the BCC model 2, and 4 departments had high input redundancy in both models.Conclusions:The model established by this study could effectively evaluate the operational efficiency and input redundancy of clinical departments, identify departments with high workload and low economic benefits, and provide reference for the rational allocation of medical resources in hospitals.

Design and application of performance appraisal program at clinical departments based on the concept of value transfer / 中华医院管理杂志

Performance appraisal is one of the key points of hospital management. The authors introduce a comprehensive hospital performance appraisal scheme based on the concept of value transfer, including qualitative and quantitative index system, weight and appraisal method.In the pilot practice of a hospital, it is found that the appraisal scheme can effectively improve the operational efficiency, social and economic benefits, and has a strong incentive role for employees. This scheme weighs the operability and scientificity of performance appraisal, and provides a reference for clinical department performance appraisal.

Discussion on Formulation Strategy of Medication Indexes in Clinical Departments of Hospital / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To understand the formulation method of medication index in clinical departments of the local hospital and the improvement of hospital medication index after the formulation of medication index. METHODS:Retrospective analysis was used to summarize and analyze the formulation,revision and application of 5 medication indexes(the proportion of drug cost in medical income,utilization rate of antibiotics in the inpatients,AUD of inpatients,the proportion of antibiotics cost in drug income,the proportion of national essential medicine cost in drug income)in clinical departments of 4 general hospitals of Nanyang. RESULTS:The medication indexes of clinical departments in 4 hospitals were formulated primarily during 2009-2014. The formulation of medication indexes in clinical departments was passed and implemented by Pharmaceutical Administration and Drug Treatment Committee/Antibiotics Management Group on the basis of the previous indicators of clinical departments. Till 2017,the times of medication indexes revision were 0.42-0.58 time/year. Before the formulation of medication indexes in clinical departments,5 indexes of each hospital were mostly not in line with the regulation of health administration department. During Jul. 2016-Jun. 2017,5 medication indexes of 4 hospitals ranged 32%-41%,47%-53%,30-37 DDD,13%-20%,21%-32%, respectively. Rational drug indexes conformed to the provisions of the administrative department of health basically. The author provided related suggestions about departments in charge of formulating and adjusting medication indexes,methods for the primary formulation and modification of medication indexes,formulation of medication indexes in special department,management measures after the formulation of medication indexes. CONCLUSIONS:At present,the formulation and management of medication indicators in 4 hospitals of local area develop well,and effectively promote the level of clinical rational drug use.

Discuss The Strategy of the Development of Scientific Research Secretary in Clinical Department / 中华医学科研管理杂志

An Evaluation of Usage and Utilization of Generic Drugs by Clinical Medicine Departments Using a Questionnaire of Chain Community Pharmacies in Japan / 医薬品情報学

The creation of the National Health Insurance program has greatly contributed to giving Japan the world’s highest level of life expectancy.  However, the cost of medical care in Japan has increased as a result of an aging society.  In response to this reality, the Japanese government initiated a campaign to promote the use of generic drugs (GEs).  In order to clarify some of the trends that contribute to different clinical medicine department usages of GEs, we carried out a survey of 400 pharmacies.  The survey data was analyzed using linear regression analysis.  Analysis of linear equations derived “utilization” that indicated ease of use of GEs, and a “saturation acceptable value (maximum allowed)” that indicated usage of GEs.  The breakdown for different clinical medicine department usages of GEs was determined as the following: psychosomatic medicine or psychiatry was 11±0.13%, internal medicine was 29±0.18%, orthopedics was 18±0.14%, ophthalmology or otolaryngology was 15±0.14%, other departments was 17±0.15%.  Furthermore, the highest utilization derived by linear regression analysis was orthopedics.  The highest acceptable saturation value was for psychosomatic medicine or psychiatry, while the lowest acceptable saturation value was orthopedics.  The results of the study confirm the importance of establishing evaluation methods for GE usage, and that linear regression analysis is a powerful tool for revealing trends in GE usage among different departments.  Additionally, the study suggests that determining GE spread measures is valuable, since they can serve as an aid to future pharmaceutical administration consideration.

Bacteria Culturing and Actuality of Drug Resistance in Clinical Departments / 中华医院感染学杂志

OBJECTIVE To explore the situation of bacteriological examination in every clinical department,know distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria,and offer the help about diagnosis and reasonable using antibiotics.METHODS Using the Microscan A/S-4 to identify the microbes and microbial sensitivity tests according to pathogens from more than twenties clinical departments between 2004 and 2005.RESULTS The clinical delivering rate was low,and samples were dispersive.The samples mostly were sputum,pus,urine and blood,and their rate was 52.15%.The first three pathogenic bacteria were totally 13 kinds of species in all kinds of departments.The main pathogenic bacteria in the internal medicine such as in the department of respiration,department of gerontology,department of endocrinology and so on were mostly Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli.The main pathogenic bacteria in department of neurosurgery,ICU,department of burn and department of trauma were mostly Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Acinetobacter baumannii/haemolyticus,Enterobacter cloacae and Staphylococcus aureus,These bacteria might lead to nosocomial infections in our hospital too.Their rate was 52% and drug-resistance was serious.A.baumannii/haemolyticus and E.cloacae were only sensitive to imipenem.P.aeruginosa was most sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactem and next to ceftazidime,amikacin and ciprofloxacin.CONCLUSIONS There are the serious phenomena that P.aeruginosa,A.baumannii/haemolyticus and E.cloacae are highly resistant to many antibiotics.We will much more attend and study it.The clinics must attend it and improve the delivering rates of cultured sample.
