Objective To investigate the effect of PDCA cycle on the overall nursing care of patients in the hemodialysis center. Methods Twenty hemodialysis patients between June and July 2014 were randomly selected as the intervention group, and another 20 hemodialysis patients between March and April 2014 were chosen as the control group. We compared the two groups of patients in terms of patients' satisfaction and the overall care quality of the nurses. Results One month after the intervention, patients in the intervention group had a significantly higher satisfaction rate than the control group (P<0.05); Nurses in the intervention group achieved significantly higher scores in basic requirements, basic items and effect evaluation than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion PDCA cycle can effectively improve the overall quality of nursing care in hemodialysis center and improve patients' satisfaction.
