Application Effect of 6S Management Mode in Operating Room Nursing
Background:
The nursing work in the operating room is heavy, intensive, and irregular, and the quality of nursing work can directly affect the surgical effect and patient prognosis. Therefore, nursing management in the operating room should be strengthened to protect patients' life safety effectively.
Objective:
To assess the effectiveness of applying the 6S management model in operating room nursing.
Design:
This was a retrospective study.
Setting:
This study was conducted at the Department of Anesthesia Surgery, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University.
Participants:
The research included 100 operating room nurses on duty between January 2020 and December 2022.
Intervention:
From January 2020 to June 2021, the hospital conducted routine training programs for nurses in the operating room. From July 2021 to December 2022, the hospital adopted the 6S management model for overseeing nursing work in the operating room.
Primary Outcome Measures:
(1) nursing quality score (2) nursing staff safety awareness (3) nursing disputes and complaints (4) incidence of adverse reactions (5) patient satisfaction with the quality of nursing care.
Results:
Following the adoption of the 6S management model, there was a noticeable improvement in the nursing quality scores, the nursing staff's awareness of safety, and the satisfaction levels of patients with the quality of care provided by operation nurses (P < .05). Additionally, the incidence of nursing disputes, complaints, and adverse events among patients decreased significantly compared to before the implementation of 6S (P = .01).
Conclusion:
Implementing 6S management with a focus on the work of operation room nurses enhanced the competence of the nursing staff and improved management effectiveness, ultimately leading to increased patient satisfaction.
