RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of PDCA cycle on prophylactic use of antibiotics in laparoscopic cholecystectomy during perioperative period and to conduct pharmacoeconomic analysis. METHODS Using retrospective analysis method, 80 discharged patients of each group underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly selected from Hefei Second People’s Hospital before PDCA cycle (from May to June 2019), after the first round of PDCA cycle (from May to June 2020), after the second round of PDCA cycle (from May to June 2021) according to real or basic reasons for irrational drug use. The rationality of prophylactic use of antibiotics for patients was evaluated. The general situation, antibiotic use, clinical efficacy and treatment cost of patients were compared before cycle and after the first and second rounds of PDCA cycle. Cost-effectiveness analysis method and sensitivity analysis method were adopted to evaluate pharmacoeconomic significance of PDCA cycle. RESULTS After two rounds of PDCA cycle, the irrational rate of antibiotics, cost ratio of antibiotics, the number of days of antibiotics use, DDDs, drug utilization index, the frequency of antibiotics use per capita, the total amount of antibiotics, the cost of antibiotics, the total amount of drugs, and the total cost of hospitalization all decreased significantly (P<0.05). The results of cost-effectiveness analysis indicated that the pharmacoeconomic effect was the best after two rounds of PDCA cycle; the results of sensitivity analysis were consistent with it, which confirmed the reliability of the research results. CONCLUSIONS PDCA CPA- cycle promotes the rational use of antibiotics of laparoscopic cholecystectomy during perioperative period, reduces the cost of antibiotics and relieves the economic burden of patients.

RESUMEN

Objective:To study the effects of plan-do-check-action (PDCA) cycle in quality improvement of neonatal resuscitation.Methods:From 2016 to 2020, the clinical data of neonates born in our hospital were analyzed. Neonates born during 2016 to 2017 were pre-PDCA group and neonates born during 2018 to 2020 were post-PDCA group. PDCA quality improvement included step-by-step, high-frequency and low-dose training, strengthening teamwork and adding equipment.Results:A total of 7 728 live-birth neonates were delivered before PDCA with 319 cases (4.1%) of asphyxia. 10 174 live-birth neonates were delivered after PDCA with 422 cases (4.1%) of asphyxia. The asphyxia rates showed no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidences of severe asphyxia before and after PDCA were both 0.8% without significant difference ( P>0.05). The success rates of resuscitation for severe asphyxia before and after PDCA was 27.9% and 44.9%, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The mortality rates within 7 d before and after PDCA were 0.5‰ and 0.1‰ respectively, without significant differences ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of PDCA cycle and step-by-step, high-frequency, low-dose neonatal resuscitation training can effectively improve the success rate of resuscitation in newborns with severe asphyxia.

RESUMEN

Objective To understand the current situation of dispensing errors and effective prevention and control measures in outpatient pharmacies in domestic hospitals, in order to further improve the quality of drug dispensing. Methods The Chinese journal database was retrieved from 2015 to 2020 for the literature on the dispensing errors of outpatient pharmacies and the continuous improvement of the quality after the measures were taken in secondary and tertiary hospitals. Results Of the 146 literatures retrieved, 13 were included in the analysis (11 in tertiary hospitals and 2 in secondary hospitals). Before the improvement, the median of the drug dispensing error rate was 5.1‰, and after the improvement it was 1.1‰. Before and after the improvement, the types of drug dispensing errors were mainly quantity errors (52.5% vs. 51.3%), variety errors (28.3% vs. 28.7%), specifications and dosage forms errors (6.2% vs. 6.7%), and labeling errors (2.1% vs. 2.9%). The improvement measures taken for the reasons of dispensing errors have a high overlap rate, and they are concentrated in two aspects: personnel factors and drug factors. Conclusion The use of continuous quality improvement tools in hospital outpatient pharmacy to control and prevent dispensing errors is still a hotspot of current research. The composition of the types of errors after improvement has basically not changed. The implemen-tation of standardized operating procedures and other continuous improvement comprehensive measures can effectively reduce the incidence of dispensing errors, and contribute to the implementation of the “Expert Consensus on Medication Error Management in China”.

RESUMEN

Objective To explore the effect of PDCA [plan (P), design (D), check (C), act (A)] cycle on primary cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training for medical assistants in hospitals. Methods PDCA cycle was used to enhance continuous quality improvement (CQI) of team members to carry out brain storming to find out the root causes of the training difficulty, and directing to the 3 main root causes: lack of emergency rescue consciousness, without systematic training system and improper education procedure, it was proposed to arrange 3 great strategies: emergency rescue knowledge training, design of systematic training system and proper arrangement of training process. The changes of medical assistants' subjective willingness to perform the first aid, the accurate rates of answering questions on CPR location, frequency, depth, ratio of compression to breathing and awareness degree of CPR before and after training were observed. Results After training, the medical assistants' subjective willingness to perform the first aid was higher than that before training [91.7% (121/132) vs. 2.3% (3/132), P<0.05]. The accurate answer rates on questions concerning CPR basic knowledge, such as location, frequency, depth and compression-breathing ratio had been greatly improved after training compared with those before training [location: 65.2% (86/132) vs. 4.5% (6/132), frequency: 40.2% (53/132) vs. 0 (0/132), depth: 90.2% (119/132) vs. 0 (0/132), compression-breathing ratio: 84.8% (112/132) vs. 1.5% (2/132 ), all P<0.05]. After training, the percentage of medical assistants having very familiar awareness degree of CPR was significantly higher than that before training [65.2% (86/132) vs. 3.0% (4/132), P<0.05].

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To promote the implementation of the pre-prescription review work, and to ensure the rational drug use of patients. METHODS: With the idea of PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Action) cycle management, the phased improvement of three PDCA cycles was gradually implemented in the operation of the pre-prescription review system, aiming at the establishment of the working mode of the prescription review work, the improvement of the rules of knowledge base in the review system and the improvement of the ability of pharmacists to review prescriptions. The operation results of the system were evaluated by comparing the irrational prescription rate of outpatient pharmacies before and after the operation of pre-prescription review system. RESULTS: Through adopting the prescription review mode of “rigid” and “flexible” interception, regular revision of knowledge base rules, regular training and examination of prescription pharmacists, pre-prescription review system operated smoothly, and the pre-prescription review work was carried out in the process of continuous improvement. In the three PDCA cycles, the irrational rate of prescriptions decreased significantly, such as after the first PDCA cycle, the irrational rate of TCM outpatient prescriptions decreased from 22.0% (1 393/6 332) in Jan. 2017 to 7.4% (416/5 627) in Jun. 2017; after the second PDCA cycle, the irrational rate of outpatient prescriptions in hospital decreased from 4.87% (5 244/107 691) in Mar. 2018 to 2.21% (2 219/100 412) in Aug. 2018. After the third PDCA cycle, the percentage of over-treatment course prescriptions in total prescriptions decreased from 16.97% (15 728/92 684) in Jun. 2018 to 5.55% (5 394/97 275) in Sept. 2018. CONCLUSIONS: The pre-prescription review system can effectively intercept and interfere with irrational prescriptions, and PDCA cycle management can effectively promote the operation of the pre-prescription review work.
