Abstract:
【Objective】 To evaluate the value of Six Sigma quality management method in improving the efficacy of red blood cell transfusion. 【Methods】 The five steps of definition, measurement, analysis, improvement and control in Six Sigma quality management were used to analyze the existing process capability and influencing factors, so as to formulate corresponding optimized measures and control plans for continuous improvement. The transfusion effect of RBCs in hemodynamically stable patients in our hospital from January to November in 2019 were assessed in three phases: January to March(prior to the application of Six Sigma), April to August (tracking the application of Six Sigma), and September to November(determining the effect of Six Sigma). The efficacy and process ability of RBC transfusion in patients with stable hemodynamics before and after the improvement were analyzed and compared. 【Results】 After the improvement, the effective rate of RBC transfusion for hemodynamically stable patients in our hospital increased from 76.9% to 90.5%(P<0.05). The Z value of process capacity increased from 0.408 0 to 1.330 8, with a significant improvement. 【Conclusion】 Application of Six Sigma quality management method can effectively improve the effect of red blood cell transfusion in patients with stable hemodynamics.
