To establish a quantifiable evaluation system in improving blood transfusion medical records based on PDCA

Abstract

Objective To explore the feasibility of establishing quantifiable evaluation system combined with PDCA in improving blood transfusion medical record. Methods A working group was set up in our hospital to establish an evaluation system for blood transfusion medical record according to relevant norms and literature. The data from September 2022 to February 2023 were used as the control group, and data from from April to May 2023 as the study group. PDCA was used to analyze the causes for poor quality of medical record. The quality of medical record was continuous improved for two months and the results were analyzed. Results Comparison between the research group and the control group showed that the score of blood transfusion consent (item A), blood transfusion application (item B), blood transfusion evaluation (item C), blood transfusion serious hazard (item F) increased respectively as 17.50±5.54 vs 21.08±3.75 (P<0.01), 16.22±2.05 vs 17.33±1.85 (P<0.01), 13.05±3.5 vs 14.72±1.97 (P<0.01), 7.9±1.44 vs 8.7±0.92 (P<0.01), and the total score of medical record was 85.36±7.5 vs 93.05±5.04 (P<0.01). The qualified rate of medical record increased from 82.2% to 98.3%(P<0.01). Conclusion The establishment of quantifiable blood transfusion medical record evaluation system combined with PDCA can help realize timely regulation and standardization of blood transfusion medical record.
