Objective To discuss the running effect of the modified hospital-community integrated two-way-referral service mode in day surgery. Methods The hospital-community integrated two-way-referral service mode in day surgery was built in May 2014 by our center, and applied in the communities’ health service network in Chenghua District, Wuhou District, and Jinjiang District. From March 2017 some improvements of the mode were made, such as assigning specific person for the management of two-way-referral, conducting lectures in communities to train the community medical staff, and carrying out gratuitous treatment. The community acceptance rate and patients satisfaction were retrospectively analyzed between March of 2016 and March of 2017, and the number of upward referral (from community to hospital) was retrospectively analyzed between March to June of 2016 and March to June of 2017. Results The community acceptance rate was elevated from 81.3% to 99.1% and the patients satisfaction was improved from 95.4% to 100.0%, and the differences between the two periods were statistically significant (P<0.05). The number of upward referral increased from 0 to 23. Conclusions The modified hospital-community integrated service mode could optimize the course of surgery appointment, and make it convenient for patients. Furthermore, it also adjusts the reasonable allocation of medical resource effectively and promotes the implementation of national hierarchical medical system.
Day surgery is a new medical service model, which has developed rapidly in China because of its advantages of safety, efficiency and resource conservation. However, along with the rapid development in quantity, it also presents contradictions such as the mismatch with the previous surgical quality and safety management model, the urgent need for the unification of the new system of quality and safety evaluation indicators at the national level, and the imbalance in the construction of information technology of medical institutions in China, leading to the new problem of uneven quality control of day surgery. This article constructs a “five-in-one” new system for the quality and safety management of day surgery from the perspective of high-quality development, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the formulation of relevant policies in China and to promote the safe, efficient, and orderly development of day surgeries.
Day surgery dates back to 1909, when it was first performed by British paediatricians. Anesthesia management for day surgery requires quick onset, early recovery, rapid recovery, and few perioperative adverse reactions. Ensuring the medical safety of patients is the primary condition for the gradual implementation of day surgery. With the continuous development of medical level, the applicable field of day surgery has gradually expanded, and new concepts and progress have also emerged in anesthesia management. This article summarizes the relevant research at home and abroad, and reviews the new progress of anesthesia for day surgery from three aspects: preparation before anesthesia, selection of anesthesia methods, and recovery after anesthesia, in order to provide a reference for anesthesia management of day surgery.

Objective To evaluate the refined management effect of diagnosis related groups (DRG), summarize the experience of refined management, and put forward corrective measures for existing problems. Methods Patients who underwent day surgery services at Shantou Central Hospital between April 2021 and March 2023 were selected. According to the management mode, patients will be divided into a conventional management group (April 2021 to March 2022) and a refined management group (April 2022 to March 2023). The general condition, medical quality, and patient satisfaction indicators of two groups of patients were compared. And according to the DRG group stratification, the differences in medical indexes such as length of hospital stay, total hospitalization expenses, and postoperative complications between the two groups were analyzed. Results A total of 4 584 patients were included, including 1 686 in the conventional management group and 2 898 in the refined management group. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of patient source, surgical grade, and provincial weight coefficient (P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in gender, age, and discharge method (P>0.05). The satisfaction of the refined management group with surgical procedures, preoperative guidance, service attitude, and nursing skills was higher than that of the conventional management group (P<0.05). A total of 4 DRG groups (≥ 100 patients) were included, with 2 215 patients in the refined management group and 1 460 patients in the conventional management group. Among them, there were 1496 cases in the group CB39 (cataract surgery), 336 cases in the group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years old), 1412 cases in the group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), and 431 cases in the group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries). Among them, in the group CB39 (cataract surgery), group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years old), group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), and group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries), the total hospitalization cost and length of stay in the refined management group were lower than those in the conventional management group (P<0.05). In the group CB39 (cataract surgery) and group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries), the incidence of postoperative complications in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05). In the group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years), the incidence of pain and incision bleeding in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05); In the group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), the incidence of incision infection in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in other indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Carrying out refined management for day surgery can reduce medical expenses, shorten the length of hospital stay, improve medical quality, and promote the high-quality development of hospitals while ensuring medical safety.
In the context of the burgeoning development of day surgery, the shortened hospital stay has led to a relative reduction in the professional care that patients receive. As a result, more stringent requirements for nursing quality management have emerged. Scientific and objective sensitive indicators can provide quantitative standards for monitoring and evaluating nursing quality. This article comprehensively reviews the definition, classification, construction steps, and methods of nursing quality sensitive indicators. Additionally, it delves into the current status of the construction and application of such indicators for day surgery both at home and abroad. Those insights can offer a scientific foundation for the management of nursing quality in day surgery settings.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of quality control circle (QCC) activity in reducing the temporarily stopping rate of day surgery.MethodsThe QCC activity was carried out from December 2018 to October 2019. By determining the theme of the activity and drawing up the plan, a retrospective analysis of pre-hospital day surgery stoppage status and reasons was performed based on 2 696 patients who had reserved surgery in the day surgery center from December 2018 to February 2019. Based on the data, the goal was determined, and measures were developed and confirmed from May to August 2019. Then the measures were standardized and implemented continuously from September to October 2019. The rate of surgical cessation before the implementation of the measures (from December 2018 to February 2019) was compared with that after the implementation of the measures (from September to October 2019).ResultsAfter the QCC activity, the temporarily stopping rate decreased from 2.89% to 1.34%, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001).ConclusionThe QCC activity can effectively reduce the temporarily stopping rate of day surgery, and lay the foundation for continuously promoting the optimization of day surgery resources and quality improvement.
Objective To explore the feasibility and the security of one-day stay ward in stripping surgery of saphenous vein varicosity. Methods Two hundred and eighty two patients treated in our hospital in 2011 were enrolled in this study， according to the operation mode， these patients were divided into 2 groups， ninety patients in one-day stay ward group and one hundred and ninety two patients in in-patient group. Their clinical features and medical operation indexs（included preoperative waiting time， duration of hospital stay， and medical cost）were retrospectively analyzed. Results There was no statistical differences on clinical features between the two groups. But compared with in-patient group， the preoperative waiting time， duration of hospital stay， and medical cost were shorter or lower in one-day stay ward group （P＜0.05）. Conclusions The one-day stay ward operation mode can decrease preoperative waiting time， duration of hospital stay and medical cost significantly， and it also can ensure the safety of clinical treatment. So it’s worthy in the clinical promotion.
Objective To explore the effect of extended nursing intervention on patients with enucleation day surgery. Methods Patients who underwent monocular enucleation in the day ward of the Ophthalmology Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University between July 2020 and June 2021 were selected. They were randomly divided into control group and trial group by random number table method. The control group was given routine day-to-day nursing care, while the trial group added the extended nursing intervention measures of “forward and extended” on the basis of routine day-to-day overall nursing. The preoperative and postoperative anxiety levels, health knowledge awareness, operation shutdown rate, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups of patients, and the application effect of extended nursing interventions in such patients was evaluated. Results Finally, 106 patients were included, 106 questionnaires were distributed, 106 were recovered, and the recovery rate was 100.0%. There were 53 cases in both the control group and the trial group. There was no significant difference in gender, age and education level between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation shutdown rate in the trial group was lower than that in the control group (0.0% vs. 11.3%). The preoperative and postoperative anxiety scores of the trial group were lower than those of the control group (preoperative: 50.06±5.27 vs. 58.25±5.21, postoperatively: 49.43±5.45 vs. 58.53±5.55). The score of the health knowledge awareness questionnaire in the trial group was higher than that in the control group (89.96±2.88 vs. 75.00±3.16). The degree of satisfaction in the trial group was better than that in the control group. In the trial group, 38 cases were very satisfied, 14 cases were satisfied, and 1 case was dissatisfied. In the control group, 19 cases were very satisfied, 27 cases were satisfied, and 7 cases were dissatisfied. The above differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Nursing intervention of “forward and extended” for patients with enucleation day surgery can effectively relieve patients’ anxiety before and after surgery, improve health knowledge awareness and nursing satisfaction, and reduce the operation shutdown rate.
