Abstract:
Objective This study assesses the effect of 6S standard operation procedure(SOP)on the centralized man-agement of flexible endoscopes within a disinfection supply center.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the cen-tralized management of 38 flexible endoscopes in the Disinfection and Supply Center of Foshan Maternal and Child Health Hospi-tal.From January to June 2022,the endoscopes were managed conventionally without the 6S SOP,as the routine group.From Ju-ly to December 2022,the endoscopes were managed with the 6S SOP,as the research group.The two groups were compared in terms of the adherence to cleaning and disinfection standards,pass rate of cleaning and disinfection,incidence of adverse events,and satisfaction degrees of healthcare providers.Results The research group under the 6S SOP management showed an signifi-cant improvement in the disinfection pass rate compared to the routine group,although the difference was not statistically signifi-cant.However,it presented a significant reduction in the incidence of adverse endoscopic events(P<0.05)and a significant in-crease in healthcare provider satisfaction(P<0.05).Conclusion The 6S SOP in the centralized management of flexible endo-scopes in the disinfection supply centers effectively enhances the quality of endoscope cleaning and disinfection,ensures their safe usage,and provides patients with efficient and secure care.
