Objective To investigate the effect of quality control circle in reducing ventilator-associated pneumonia in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Methods A total of 1 249 child patients who underwent mechanical ventilation between January and December 2013 were chosen as the control group, and they accepted routine management. Another 1 208 child patients treated between January and December 2014 were selected as the observation group, and quality control circle was adopted. The compliance of ventilator care bundles, the duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of PICU stay and the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the control group, compliance of ventilator care bundles was higher in the observation group (P<0.01), the duration of mechanical ventilation was shorter [(6.9±2.4) daysvs. (4.6±2.2) days], the length of PICU stay was shorter [(9.2±3.1) daysvs. (7.7±2.4) days], and the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia was lower (22.4‰vs. 9.1‰) (P<0.05). Conclusion Application of quality control circle can significantly promote the compliance of ventilator care bundles, and decrease the duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of PICU stay and the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia.
Objective To investigate the application of quality control circle (QCC) activities in improving weight management ability of patients with renal edema. Methods A QCC activity group was founded, and " improving weight management ability of edema patients with kidney disease” was selected as the theme. Then the status of weight management ability in 51 patients with renal edema who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology from April 1st to 30th 2015 was investigated, the reasons of the low weight management ability were analyzed, and then appropriate countermeasures were carried out. After this activity, the status of weight management ability in 54 patients with renal edema who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology from October 1st to 31th 2015 was investigated, to assess the effect and consolidate the results of activities. Result After the QCC activities, the scores of weight management ability increased from 23.84±6.34 to 28.43±4.08 with statistical significance (P<0.05), and the qualified rate of weight management ability increased from 25.5% to 44.4% with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion QCC activities can improve the weight management ability and the qualified rate of weight management ability of patients with renal edema, at the same time, it can improve the overall quality of nurses.
Objective To explore the application of quality control circle in reducing the same-day cancellation rate of day surgery. Methods A quality control circle team was set up, and determined the theme of reducing the same-day cancellation rate of day surgery. A survey was conducted among all patients who had made appointments for day surgeries at the First Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Military Medical University between August and October 2023. The number of patients who cancelled their surgeries on the day and the reasons for their cancellations were recorded. Based on the ten steps of the quality control circle, relevant measures and improvement processes were formulated. In March 2024, the same-day cancellation rate of day surgery after the quality control circle activity was analyzed. Results The same-day cancellation rate decreased from 2.39% to 0.67%, the target achievement rate was 135.43%, and the progress rate was 71.97%. Conclusion The quality control circle activity can effectively reduce the same-day cancellation rate of day surgery.
ObjectiveTo improve activities of daily living (referring to Barthel Index) in the older inpatients.MethodsIn January 2016, a quality control circle (QCC) was established. According to 10 steps in activity of QCC, we figured out the causes of low Barthel Index score in older inpatients by using Plato method and Fishbone Diagram which were common methods of QCC. In addition, we designed and implemented a rectification program to improve Barthel Index score.ResultsAfter intervention of QCC, the average Barthel Index score of the older inpatients increased from 72.40±6.42 to 89.30±5.87 with a statistical difference (P<0.01); the satisfaction percent of hospitalized patients increased from 94.5% to 98.7% with a statistical difference (P<0.01). The percentage of registered nurses whose theoretical test score were over 90 increased from 57% to 88% (P<0.01) and the satisfaction percent of nurses increased from 90.5% to 95.6% (P<0.01). Moreover, the member’s ability of learning, discovery, analysis and problem solving, communication, application of QCC skills were improved.ConclusionThe application of QCC activities will increase older inpatients’ Barthel Index score, improve the satisfaction of patients and nursing staff, and enhance the members’ ability of solving problems by using QCC skills.
ObjectiveTo study the effect of quality control circle activities on reducing the risk of observed patients. MethodBy carrying out the quality control circle, it was done that confirming the subject, grasping the risk of observed patients, setting a goal, analyzing the risk factors of existing problems, finding out the real reasons, drawing up and actualizing the countermeasures. ResultsAfter carrying out the quality control circle, the main risk factor, emergency rescue, of observed patients was ameliorated significantly (P < 0.05). The risk was declined from 0.41% to 0.14% (P < 0.05). The self-evaluation of circle members was improved (P < 0.001). ConclusionBy the quality control circle, it is actualized effectively that reducing the risk of observed patients and improving the overall qualities of nurses. This thing is helpful to improve the quality of nursing.
Objective To improve the model of hospital-community integrated service of day surgery through quality control circle (QCC). Methods To optimize the community follow-up management of day surgery patients, we used QCC between March and August 2015 to find out the real reasons for community follow-up problems in day surgery patients and developed and implemented corresponding countermeasures. Comparison of health education, postoperative follow-up of dressing changes, and doctor-patient satisfaction assessment before and after the implementation of the model of hospital-community integrated service of day surgery (September 2014-February 2015vs. September 2015-February 2016) was then performed. Results After QCC implementation, the average number of dressing changes in the hospital was reduced from 4.58±0.95 to 1.18±0.39 (t=181.194,P<0.001). The average number of dressing changes in the community increased from 1.42±0.52 to 4.32±0.88 (t=–146.245,P<0.001). The average number of health consultation increased from 0.85±0.38 to 6.39±1.20 (t=–177.096,P<0.001). The satisfaction assessment after QCC implementation among doctors, nurses and patients also significantly increased (P<0.01). Conclusion Applying QCC can improve the model of hospital-community integrated service of day surgery and have remarkable effects on postoperative rehabilitation and patients’ satisfaction.
