概括
贴上标志有效地减少了急诊室患者暴力. 添加行为应急响应小组 (BERT) 聚集并没有进一步减少暴力事件,这表明仅仅是标志对减轻侵略有好处.
科学领域:
- 紧急医疗 紧急医疗
- 患者安全 患者安全
- 医疗保健管理的管理
背景情况:
- 在急诊室 (ED) 中,患者暴力造成了严重的安全问题.
- 积极的缓解策略对于防止攻击性行为至关重要.
- 风险评估工具可以识别高危暴力患者.
研究的目的:
- 评估两个干预措施的有效性,以减少ED患者的暴力行为.
- 评估标志贴贴和行为应急响应小组 (BERT) 聚集的影响.
- 为了确定这些干预措施是否以ED的侵略性行为风险评估工具 (ABRAT-ED) 为指导,减少暴力事件.
主要方法:
- 在密歇根州的两个ED中进行了一项前性干预研究.
- 护士们使用ABRAT-ED来识别选期间的高风险患者.
- 干预措施包括放置标牌 (第一阶段) 和在标牌上添加BERT集群 (第二阶段).
主要成果:
- 暴力事件发生率从0.93% (基线) 降至0.68% (第一阶段) 和0.62% (第二阶段).
- 标牌的放置显著降低了暴力事件的相对风险27% (RR=0.73,p=0.003).
- 添加BERT聚集并没有产生显著的暴力事件额外减少 (RR=0.92,p=0.418).
结论:
- 用作 ABRAT-ED 识别的高风险患者的视觉提示的标志贴贴,有效地减少了 ED 患者的暴力事件.
- 在标牌上添加积极的BERT聚会并没有显示出暴力事件的进一步显著下降.
- 针对性干预,如视觉线索,可以提高紧急护理环境中的患者安全.

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures
2.6K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment
1.2K
Transmission-based precautions are for patients infected or suspected to be infected (or colonized) with organisms posing a significant risk to others. The transmission precautions include airborne and protective environment precautions.
Airborne precautions:
Use airborne precautions when treating patients known or suspected to have diseases that spread through the air—for example, tuberculosis or measles. These organisms are present in smaller droplets expelled by an infected person and...

Personal Protective Equipment
1.5K
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is unique clothing or equipment worn by an employee to minimize or prevent exposure to infectious agents. PPE creates a barrier between the employee and the infectious materials. PPE must be readily available in the patient care area. PPE includes gloves, gowns and aprons, masks and respirators, goggles, face shields, shoes, and headcovers:
