ObjectiveTo provide a reference for the implementation of risk management in other medical institutions by introducing the practical experience of building a medical risk management system in West China Hospital of Sichuan University.MethodsBased on Donabedian’s SPO model, the practical experience in the construction of West China Hospital of Sichuan University was summarized from the aspects of structure, process, and results.ResultsThe establishment of medical risk management system made the hospital adverse event management effect good, and the risk management indicators were good. The average number of medical disputes in hospitals from 2016 to 2018 was 103.33, the average number of medical disputes per 100 medical practitioners was 7.01, the average number of medical disputes per 10 000 surgical cases was 6.55, and the average number of medical disputes per 10 000 cases was 0.18.ConclusionThe construction of medical risk management system is conducive to enhancing the awareness of medical risk prevention among medical institutions, continuously improving the quality of medical care and medical safety of hospitals, ensuring patient safety, promoting harmony between doctors and patients, and promoting the realization of healthy China.
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.
