[Abstract] Objective To construct an information-based whole-process closed-loop management model for inpatient critical value, improve the work efficiency of medical staff, reduce the risk of patients, and improve the management level of hospital critical value. Methods A whole-process closed-loop management model of critical value confirmation, push, reception and processing for inpatients was constructed based on information technology in collaboration with multiple departments. The average time for critical value notification to medical staff, average time for doctors to receive and process critical value, critical value defect rate, and average time for special supervision of critical value before and after improvement of this model was compared to evaluate the effectiveness of this management model. Results After the improvement of the information-based closed-loop management mode of critical value, the average time of critical value notification to medical staff, the average time of receiving and handling critical value by doctors, and the average time of special supervision of critical value were 0.12min, 1.86min and 0.68min, respectively. All of them were lower than 2.88min, 5.3min and 3.76min before improvement. The defect rate of critical value was 0% after improvement, which was lower than 6% before improvement. The differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion The whole-process closed-loop management mode of inpatient critical value based on informatization can significantly improve the work efficiency of medical staff, and the critical value information can be transmitted accurately and timely to reduce the risk of patients. Moreover, the data can be traced throughout the whole process, providing guarantee for scientific management, and is worth promoting and using. |
