Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of quality control circle ( QQC) on the error control in PIVAS. Methods:QQC group was established in the department of PIVAS to reduce the errors in intravenous admixture practice. The status was analyzed using the total errors per week as the index, and the improvement target value was calculated by the eighty-twenty rule. The concrete causes for the errors were found out by the method of“brain storm”, and the main causes were confirmed using a fishbone diagram and the eighty-twenty rule, and then some countermeasures were summarized and carried out. The application effect of QQC was judged by the intan-gible and tangible outcomes before and after the activity, and some suggestions for the further improvement were provided. Results:Af-ter the implementation of QQC activity, the number of errors was reduced from 47 per week to 22 per week with the rate of target a-chievement of 104. 1% and the progress rate of 53. 2%. Moreover, QQC showed positive influence on the sense of being masters, co-operation ability, team spirit and sense of responsibility and confidence in the whole staff, and the ability of analyzing, summarizing and solving problems was also enhanced. Conclusion: QQC can significantly reduce the errors in the practice of intravenous admix-ture. The management method is valuable to explore and analyze the deep problems encountered in PIVAS in order to make rational and efficient measures. It is also helpful to improving the service conception of pharmacists and nurses, and enhancing the roles of pharma-cists in quality management and control to ensure medication safety.
