Abstract:
Objective To explore the method and effect of checklist tool implemented in the safety management of clinical blood transfusion in intensive care unit. Methods A checklist was specially designed according to the technical standard and check system of clinical blood transfusion. 379 patients prescribed a blood transfusion enrolled in ICU from January to May 2013 were conducted as the control group before the checklist was designed. After the application of checklist during the blood transfusion process, 846 patients prescribed a blood transfusion enrolled in ICU from June to December 2013 were conducted as the experimental group. The incidence of blood transfusion safety related adverse events between the two groups was compared. Results The incidence of adverse events was 1.32% (5 of 379 patients) in the control group, and there was no sign of adverse events occurred in the experimental group. The difference had statistical significance (χ2=11.21, P<0.05). Conclusion The application of checklist reduced the incidence of blood transfusion safety related adverse events,and effectively improved the quality of nursing safety and patient satisfaction.
