This investigation analyzes the management of medical schools merged with comprehensive universities through internet search and research review in order to reveal management model and effect of the merger. The conclusion is safely reached that governance models are divided into two different patterns: centralized management and decentralized management. Eight universities, representing the two models, were selected and evaluated comprehensively. Among them, the universities that carried out decentralized management have greater development after the merger based on a quality comparison concerning freshmen, faculty, teaching and research between the two patterns. In China, decentralized management in comprehensive universities is more beneficial to the development of medical schools
Objective To compare administration of incidence reporting systems for healthcare risk management in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and Taiwan, and to provide evidence and recommendations for healthcare risk management policy in China. Methods We searched the official websites of the healthcare risk management agencies of the four countries and one district for laws, regulatory documents, research reports, reviews, and evaluation forms concerned with healthcare risk management and assessment. Descriptive comparative analysis was performed on relevant documents. Results (1) A total of 142 documents were included in this study. The United States had the most relevant documents (68). (2) The type of incidents from reporting systems has expanded from medication errors and hospital-acquired infections to near-misses, and now includes all patient safety incidents. (3) The incidence-reporting systems can be grouped into two models: government-led and legal/regulatory/NGO-collaborative. (4) In two cases, reporting systems were established for specific incident types: One for death or serious injury events (the sentinel events database in Britain, SIRL), and one for healthcare-associated infections (NHSN in America). (5) Compared to the four countries, Taiwan’s system put more emphasis on public welfare, confidentiality, and information sharing. The contents of reporting there covered every aspect of risk management to create a more secure environment. Conclusion (1) Britain’s national reporting and learning system was representative of a government-led model; (2) The United States was the earliest country to have a reporting system, which included a limited range of incident types. Management of incidents became more reliable with increased application of laws, regulations, and guidances; (3) Both the Canadian and the Australian systems drew from the American experience and are still developing; (4) The Taiwanese system was comprehensive and is an instructional case.
目的 探讨消毒供应中心的管理方法，切实提高其质量。 方法 2008年8月－2010年12月应用PDCA循环管理模式，对消毒供应中心实施标准化、规范化、系统化和科学化的管理。 结果 应用PDCA循环管理模式以来，消毒供应中心的建筑布局及工作流程得以规范；手术器械处置效率、清洗消毒灭菌质量得以提高；手术切口、Ⅰ类手术切口的感染率均得以降低。2009年与2008年、2010年与2008年比较，手术切口感染率均得以降低，差异有统计学意义（χ2=39.95，P＜0.05；χ2=27.80，P＜0.05）；2009年与2010年比较，手术切口感染率差异无统计学意义（χ2=0.02，P＞0.05）。2009年与2008年、2010年与2008年、2010年与2009年比较，Ⅰ类手术切口感染率降低，但差异无统计学意义（χ2=2.83，P＞0.05；χ2=2.21，P＞0.05；χ2=0.05，P＞0.05）。 结论 推行PDCA循环管理模式，促进了消毒供应中心的规范化管理，实现了消毒器械质量控制的前馈控制、过程控制以及反馈控制；拓展了消毒供应专业领域，使医院的现有资源得到了最为高效的利用；使患者安全得到了切实保障。
ObjectiveTo analyze the effectiveness of PDCA cycle model in antibiotics management by comparison of antibiotics use before and after the use of PDCA in a tertiary hospital. MethodsProspective study was adopted to analyze the using rate of antibiotics in outpatients, emergent patients and inpatients between June 2011 and December 2013. ResultsThe reasonable antibiotics use was improved since the beginning of PDCA cycle model. The antibiotics using rates of outpatients were 33.00%, 29.09% and 19.31%, of emergent patients were 45.00%, 32.81% and 28.94%, and of inpatients were 71.00%, 57.76% and 53.28% in year 2011 (from June to December), 2012 (from January to December) and 2013 (from January to December) respectively. Meanwhile, ClassⅠ incision antimicrobial use also decreased and bacteria examination rate continuously increased during the last three years. As a consequence, patients' cost was reduced. ConclusionThe PDCA cycle model promotes the standardized management of clinical medication application.
ObjectiveNew Rural Cooperative Medical Systems (NCMS) has been constructed as a financial protection for rural population commencing 2003. With the development of NCMS, there were quite a few management models existing across the nation. In order to assess the management alternatives, we try to explore how to set up a set of indicators to analysis management effect of different management models. MethodsBy literature review, we sorted all qualitative indicators into 8 types. Delphi and Multi-Attribute utility theories were applied to construct the appraisal indicators, including shaping first and second level indicators and assigning the weights for each type of indicators. ResultsWe managed to identify the indicator system which was comprised of 4 types of first level indicators, aiming at claim, manament process, transparency and supervision on accredited hospitals. Besides, there were 9 sub-indicators. ConclusionThe evaluation indicators are constructed for future assessment on management effect of rural health insurance.
