Objective  To explore the role of introducing closed-loop management in the decision execution process of hospital president’s office meeting in improving the hospital decision execution and management ability. Methods  The topics of the president’s office meeting of Guang’an People’s Hospital from 2021 to 2022 were selected. The topics of the president’s office meeting were divided into 2 groups based on the introduction of closed-loop management. Among them, 2021 was used as the pre-intervention group, and 2022 was used as the post-intervention group. The completion rate of agreed topics, the rate of reconsidering deferred topics, and the impact of closed-loop management on various sequence departments of the hospital before and after intervention were observed. Results  A total of 946 topics were included. Among them, there were 499 topics in the pre-intervention group, 305 topics were completed, 38 topics were deferred, and 16 topics were presented for further meetings; after intervention, there were 447 topics, 404 topics were completed, 33 topics were deferred, and 24 topics were presented for further meetings. There was a statistically significant difference in the average completion rate of agreed topics [(60.90±6.30)% vs. (89.62±7.94)%] and the average rate of reconsidering deferred topics [(40.83±18.78)% vs. (65.70±25.62)%] before and after intervention (P<0.05). The average completion rate of agreed topics in administrative, logistic and business sequence increased from (60.13±7.95) %, (67.90±22.13) % and (63.34±18.54) % to (92.41±8.25) %, (88.80±18.78) % and (84.79±18.71) %, respectively. Conclusion  The introduction of closed-loop management in the decision execution process of the hospital president’s office meeting can improve the decision-making efficiency and execution ability.
