Implementation effects of quality control circle in improving medication adherence of outpatient helicobacter pylori...

To evaluate the implementation effects of problem-solving Quality Control Circle (QCC) activities on medication adherence among outpatient Helicobacter pylori patients. Pharmacists collected data scales, guidance sheets, registration forms, and scoring sheets from outpatient H. pylori patients from January to March 2024. Through brainstorming, factors affecting medication adherence were identified and a series of specific measures were formulated. Implementation was carried out from April to July 2024, and the therapeutic effects of patients before and after implementing the QCC process were evaluated. The total score of patient medication adherence improved from 7.9 to 9.2, with statistically significant results (P < 0.001). The medication compliance rate increased from 57.46% to 87.62%; the adverse reaction incidence decreased from 39 to 11%; the C14 breath test positive rate decreased from 67.2% to 30.65%. All the above results showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.001). Implementing QCC can standardize and improve medication adherence measures for H. pylori patients, which has practical significance for patient treatment outcomes, while also enhancing pharmacists' professional knowledge and skills.
