Objective:
The main objective is to investigate the effect of PDCA circulation management on nursing quality in the day operation room.
Methods:
A retrospective study was performed in 300 patients in the day surgery room. For the control group, 150 patients received routine nursing. For the observation group, 150 patients underwent PDCA circulation nursing management. The scores for nursing quality management, the hospital infection, the detection rate of pathogenic bacteria, the incidence rate of adverse events, the negative emotion of patients, and the satisfaction rate for the day surgery department were recorded and analyzed between two groups.
Results:
Compared with the control group, the scores for nursing quality management and the satisfaction rate for the day surgery department were significantly increased (all P < 0.05), while the hospital infection, the detection rate of pathogenic bacteria, HAMA scores, HAMD scores, and the incidence rate of adverse events were obviously decreased (all P < 0.05). Significantly statistical differences were observed between the two groups.
Conclusion:
PDCA circulation nursing management in the day operating room could optimize the nursing quality management, improve the satisfaction rate of the operating room, reduce the negative emotions of patients, and prevent adverse events in time, with lower hospital infections.
