Guideline implementation with decision support checklist (GUIDES) aims to assist the self-reflection of evidence-based clinical decision support system (CDSS) related professionals to enhance the process monitor and continuous improvement of evidence-based CDSS. This paper interpreted the development process, target user, and assessment method of GUIDES, analyzed the practical value of GUIDES through a typical example, and then reflected on the GUIDES and current studies on evidence-based CDSS in China. It is expected to provide references for future studies.

ObjectiveTo explore the impact of continuous quality improvement on the quality of life and complications in end-stage hemodialysis patients. MethodWe reviewed the clinical data of 128 end-stage renal disease patients undergoing hemodialysis from January 2013 to January 2014. The patients were divided into observation group and control group randomly with 64 patients in each. Patients in the control group received routine nursing only during hemodialysis, while those in the observation group received extra continuous quality improvement nursing on the basis of routine one. Quality of life of the two groups of patients was evaluated by World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale-brief before and after intervention. Adverse reactions during hemodialysis were also observed in these two groups. ResultsThe incidences of hypotension, malnutrition, thrombosis, infection and arrhythmia in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Psychological dimension, social dimension, physiological adaptability and total scales of quality of life in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionsContinuous quality improvement of nursing reduces the rates of complications and improves patients' quality of life.
Objective To explore the influencing factors and improving measures of hand hygiene among healthcare workers. Methods From June to August 2016, several healthcare workers from clinical departments and nosocomial infection control department in Chengdu were selected by purposive sampling method. Data was collected by individual in-depth interviews, and was three-rank coded by Nvivo 8 software based on Grounded Theory. Results After three-rank coding, 6 important influencing factors were generalized which were re-categorized into 3 levels: personal cognition, behavior capacity and social support. At the last, the whole framework of the theory was constructed through core coding. Conclusion In clinical practice, we should take reasonable measures to strengthen the training of hand hygiene, improve the hand hygiene facilities, strengthen supervision and management, and effectively improve the implementation rate of hand hygiene.
Judging from the latest policies related to the medical insurance payment reform of the state and Sichuan province, the reform of medical insurance diagnosis-related group (DRG)/diagnosis-intervention packet (DIP) payment methods is imperative. The impact of DRG/DIP payment method reform on public hospitals is mainly analyzed from the aspects of hospital cost accounting and control, quality of filling in the first page of medical cases, coding accuracy, standard of medical practice, development of diagnosis and treatment technology innovation business, multi-departmental linkage mechanism, competition between hospitals, performance appraisal mechanism, and negotiation and communication mechanism. We should put forward hospital improvement strategies from the top-level design of the whole hospital and from the aspects of improving the quality of the first page of the cases and the quality of the coding, strengthening the cost accounting and control of the disease, carrying out in-hospital and out-of-hospital training, establishing a liaison model, finding gaps with benchmark hospitals, enhancing the core competitiveness of innovative technologies, and improving internal performance appraisal, etc., to promote the high-quality development of hospitals.
ObjectiveTo explore the supervision and inspection mechanism of hospital-acquired infection management at hospital-level in order to promote continuous quality improvement of hospital-acquired infection control. MethodsInstead of inspecting hospital departments only by hospital infection control professionals, the clinical hospital infection control nurses were also involved in the two cross-inspections carried out respectively in September and December, 2013, which shared the same contents, methods, and the inspectors. According to standard procedures, on-site view and inquiry methods were adopted to check the implementation of the system and measures and the infection control knowledge among medical staff. Inspection results were written down to feed back to each department with a unified form. The problems found during the two inspections were classified to be analyzed and solved. The results of the two inspections were compared to understand whether the effect of continuous quality improvement can be achieved through cross-inspections and subsequent work. ResultsThe excellent rate of department and overall accuracy rate of the second inspection increased with statistical significance compared to that of the first inspection (χ2=619.902, P=0.000; χ2=40.347, P=0.000). Meanwhile, the correct rate of each module and infection control knowledge among all kinds of medical staff also increased compared with the first inspection with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). ConclusionLong-term mechanism of cross-inspection involving hospital infection control nurses should be established to facilitate the continuous quality improvement of hospital-acquired infection management.
