Résumé
Objective:To apply the best evidence of pre-examination and triage management of patients with non-traumatic acute abdomen to clinical practice and evaluate its effects.Methods:Using convenience sampling method, 15 nurses and 237 patients with non-traumatic acute abdomen admitted in the emergency department of Shanxi Provincial People ′s Hospital from January to May 2021 were selected as the research objects, 114 cases as the baseline review group and 123 cases as the after-effect evaluation group. Following the clinical evidence practice application of JBI Evidence-Based Nursing Center Systematic standard procedures, using self before-after control study to compare the knowledge and behavior of triage nurses before and after evidence application, and compliance with each review index; using a non-contemporaneous controlled trial to compare the changes of pre-examination and triage time and triage accuracy between two groups. Results:After the application of evidence, the score of the triage nurses on the pre-examination and triage of non-traumatic acute abdomen increased from 98.00±6.56 in the after-effect evaluation group to 114.20±3.88 in the base-line review group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=8.62, P<0.05); after the application of evidence, the compliance with indicators 1-9,12,13,15-17 was significantly improved and the difference was significant ( χ2 values were 11.46-123.06, all P <0.05). After the application of evidence, the compliance rate of those indicators <80% increased to more than 80% except indicator 6, the accuracy of patient triage rose from 84.21%(96/114) to 93.50%(115/123) with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.22, P<0.05); after the application of the evidence, the triage time was 2.00(1.00,4.00) min, shorter than 3.00(2.00,4.63) min in the base-line review group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.18, P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of the best evidence of pre-examination and triage for non-traumatic acute abdomen can improve the nursing practice of non-traumatic acute abdomen triage, improve the accuracy of non-traumatic acute abdomen triage, and shorten the triage time.
Résumé
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the epidemic has been spreading rapidly. As an important base to combat the epidemic, the hospital infection prevention and control work is facing great challenges. In particular, as one of the first COVID-19 designated hospitals in a province and a large general hospital at the same time, how to prevent and control nosocomial infection among patients and medical staff during the epidemic period of COVID-19 is of paramount importance. Our strategies start with the three key elements of infectious disease management, namely, "controlling the source of infection, cutting off the route of transmission, and protecting the susceptible population." The in-patients in pre-examination and triage, fever clinic, isolation ward and common ward were inspected from fever screening, pre-examination and triage, personal protection, in-patient management, emergency treatment, accompanying care management, and environmental disinfection. A series of interventions were carried out to effectively cut off the transmission of COVID-19 in hospitals. After effective screening and rational pre-examination and triage for outpatients, emergency patients and inpatients, medical personnel received a series of training, scientific protection, and accompanying personnel were effectively managed and controlled, there was not a single case of nosocomial infection during the epidemic of COVID-19. This series of intervention strategies provides some reference for other medical institutions to carry out effective prevention and control of the epidemic.
