Abstract:
Objective To explore the causes of dropping off in the psychiatric clinic nursing pathway , and to develop efficient coping strategies to prevent dropping off .Methods A retrospective analysis was performed to determine the causes of dropping off amongst patients within the control group ( from December 2012 to March 2013 ) .The findings were used to devise efficient coping strategies which were then applied to the intervention group ( from April to July 2013 ) .The rate of dropping off and the reasons for dropping off were compared between the control group and intervention group .Results The rate of dropping off of the intervention group was 5.1%, which was significantly lower than 11.3%of the control group (χ2 =5.747,P<0.05).Main reasons for dropping off included “Discharged due to patient” or “Discharged due to patients ’ family”.There were significant differences compared with the single factor analysis (2.3%vs.0.0%;χ2 =5.376,P<0.05). Conclusions Major reasons for dropping off were identified and appropriate coping strategies were implemented .These interventions were shown to help lower the dropping off rate , improved the variance management techniques , and could promote the development of psychiatric clinical nursing pathway .
