Objective Based on the PSQ-18 scale, to evaluate the effects of disease classification early warning system (DCEWS) on operation quality of health examination center (HEC). Methods By means of the comparable and retrospective cohort study methods, using “PSQ-18” of American Rand Corporation as a tool, taking the date when HEC implemented DCEWS as node, and adopting statistic software for random sampling, it was divided into two groups: the traditional group (before implementing DCEWS, n=475) and the early warning group (after implementing DCEWS, n=473). The PSQ-18 scale scores of both groups were analyzed so as to assess the effects of DCEWS on HEC. Results Such factors as sex, age, education level and family average monthly income had certain effects on the score of PSQ-18, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (Pgt;0.05); in the following 4 dimensions as the ways of interpersonal communication, degree of doctor-patient communication, convenience degree and the overall satisfaction of patients, the PSQ-18 scores of the traditional group and the early warning group were 4.0±0.92/4.2±0.97, 3.8±0.94/4.0±0.96, 4.4±0.60/4.6±0.6, 4.2±0.87/4.4±0.94, respectively, with significant differences (all Plt;0.05). Conclusion The implementation of “Disease classification early waning system” can significantly increase the “patient satisfaction” of health examinees, and can significantly improve the operation quality of health examination center.
目的 调查医疗文书填写现状并探讨其对患者满意度之间的影响。 方法 2012年10月-12月以呼吸内科住院的患者为调查对象,调查其医疗文书完成情况,统计医疗文书缺项数目。同时参考国内外患者满意度研究,自制满意度调查表,调查患者对医务人员满意度;分析医疗文书缺项数目对患者满意度的影响。 结果 研究共纳入151例患者,共有126份医疗文书存在不同程度填写缺陷,占83.44%,平均缺项(11.58 ± 11.63)条。总体患者就医满意度为6.85分,与医疗文书缺项数目呈现负相关性(R=?0.602,P=0.001)。患者性别、年龄、文化程度、付费方式和住院天数与患者满意度无相关性。 结论 医疗文书缺项数目较多、完成质量不高。需要加强医务人员对于医疗文书完成质量的重视程度。
Objective To evaluate if performing thyroidectomy through small incision has any notable aesthetic impact on patients compared with larger incision. Methods Thirty consecutive patients underwent thyroidectomy were enrolled from March 2008 to June 2008 in this prospective randomized pilot study. The incision length was 6 cm in the small incision group and 9 cm in the larger incision group. After 3 years follow-up,the scar aesthetics were evaluated by patients and surgeons using the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS),Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS),respectively. Digital photographs about scars were taken and assessed by non-research related viewers. Results There were 13 cases who received scar aesthetic assessment in both groups. The demographic characteristics of both groups were comparative. The overall patients’ satisfactions for the small incision group and the larger incision group were (2.5±1.9) scores and (2.2±1.5)scores, respectively (P=0.55). There were no significant differences in scar assessment scale score as for other scar assessment scales (including VSS score,PSAS score,and OSAS score) between the two groups. The evaluation of digital photographs about scars by non-research related viewers was no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion Larger cervical scar in thyroidectomy does not decrease patients’ satisfaction with their scar results.
ObjectiveTo assess the care needs of outpatients in stomatological hospital and provide evidence for the improvement of patients' satisfaction. MethodsAccording to the characteristics of outpatients in stomatological hospital, a convenience sample of 150 cases was assessed with care needs survey based on Kano Model between May 2011 to February 2012. ResultsAmong all the care needs, 6 were essential, 11 were expected, and 3 had an attractive quality. Essential and attractive care needs accounted for 70% of all items. In the quadrant chart analysis, there were 8 items in competitive advantage district and 12 in the urgent improvement district respectively. ConclusionKano model is a quality attributive recognition tool. Through the analysis of the questionnaire, we believe the hospital should improve such aspects as information disclosure, public facilities, appointment, optimization process, and shortening patients' waiting time, in order to meet patients' needs by providing them with high quality services.
ObjectiveTo explore the application of discharge planning model in Respiratory Department. MethodWe developed discharge planning model in the Respiratory Department and performed standardized management on inpatients by assessing, planning, implementing and following up the whole process. A total of 716 discharged patients before the implementation of the planning model (January to March 2014) were designated as the control group, and 739 discharged patients after the model implementation (April to June 2014) were regarded as the observation group. Then, we compared such indexes as the rate of discharge planning, average length of hospital stay, retention rate of discharged patients, the number of new hospital admissions and medical orders during the time of weak nurse strength, and inpatient satisfaction before and after the model implementation. ResultsAfter implementation of discharge planning model, all observed indicators were significantly better in the observation group (P<0.05). ConclusionsImplementation of discharge planning model can effectively promote physician-nurse cooperation, plan health guidance for discharged patients, make them be ready to return to society and family, improve patients' satisfaction, and achieve the aim of patient-oriented high quality care. Meanwhile, it also can shorten the average length of hospital stay, reduce orders during the time of weak strength. It can not only ensure the ward medical indexes, but is helpful to manage nursing schedule.

Objective To understand the effect and influencing factors of humanistic care on improving the experience of inpatients. Methods Patients were collected from a third grade class A women’s and children’s hospital in June 2015 and June 2016, and their satisfaction was investigated by a third party. The service items of Inpatients Satisfaction Item Score Table in 2015 were analyzed. Appropriate intervention measures were taken to low-score items, such as humanistic knowledge training to all medical staff, improvement health guidelines, implementation of recycling process, carrying out high quality nursing interventions, and so on. The patients satisfaction survey results in 2016 were compared with those of 2015. Results In 2016, the total satisfaction rate (89.94%), and the average score of items ranked the top three (94.64±0.14), including the level of medical technology, medical ethics and the overall evaluation of doctor’s professional ehtics, medical communication and service attitude, were higher than those of 2015 (85.25, 90.86±1.53). The average score of items ranked the last three (89.25±9.21), including hospital ward, hospital environment (clean, quiet and safe), hospital meals and room service, and hospital food quality, was higher than that of 2015 (78.64±2.40). However, compared with the same period in the last year, the rank of hospital environment fell by two places. Conclusions Hardware conditions like physical environment have an important impact on the experience of hospital patients. However, humanistic care is the key factor to improve the patients’ inpatient experience and satisfaction.
Objective To explore the postoperative satisfaction of patients with lumbar disc herniation after enhanced recovery after surgery and its related factors. Methods A total of 102 patients with lumbar disc herniation were selected and analyzed by convenient sampling method from September 2016 to June 2017. The patients’ general information, functional status [using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) to investigate the preoperative, postoperative and post-discharge ODI] and patients’ satisfaction (1 month after the discharge) were collected. Results A total of 102 patients, including 62 males and 40 females, aged from 14 to 82 years with an average of (43.8±14.4) years were included in the study.The mean length of hospital stay was (6.61±2.49) days. The total score of patients’ satisfaction was 62.43±6.37, and the satisfaction degree was at the middle and high level. Postoperative and post-discharge ODIs were associated with patients’ satisfaction (rs=0.328, 0.452; P<0.05). Conclusions The postoperative satisfaction of patients with lumbar disc herniation after enhanced recovery after surgery should be further improved. The medical staff should pay attention to the recovery of postoperative function in order to improve the patients’ satisfaction.
Objective To optimize the environment of outpatient clinics in large hospitals, facilitate the patients’ visits and improve the comprehensive management level. Methods From September to November 2015, 2 hospitals in each part of a provincial city (middle, east, west, north and south), a total of 10 hospitals were chosed by convenient sampling method. The forms, types and distribution of outpatient navigation service system were investigated and analyzed by using a self-designed questionnaire. Results There were a total of 14 forms of counseling-guide services in the 10 hospitals. Just 1 hospital provided all the 14 forms of counseling-guide services, and 2 hospitals provided 13 forms of counseling-guide services, which were relatively complete. While the other 7 large hospitals provided only 4 to 6 forms of counseling-guide services, which were relatively simple. Conclusion Qualified outpatient navigation service system can help patients to receive more effective treatment, optimize the environment, highlighting the modern hospital humanistic service and the concept of intelligent service and scientific management.
