Abstract:
Stepping up clinical consultation control is an effective way to improve the level of patient care and medical quality. A retrospective analysis of relevant clinical data led to the discovery that among the leading causes of clinical misdiagnosis and mistreatment were limitation in the scope of knowledge on the part of specialized physicians, inadequate collection of medical record data, over-reliance on accessory examinations, and one-sided clinical thinking. It is pointed out that stepping up clinical consultation control is of great importance as it can help solve clinical difficulties and raise the rate of accuracy in diagnosis; promote professional exchange and raise the rate of success in emergency treatment; cultivate and enhance young doctors expertise in diagnosis and treatment; protect the interests of patients and reduce medical disputes. The paper also puts forward measures for improving and implementing the system of clinical consultation: revising consultation criteria, standardizing consultation procedure, strengthening consultation supervision, and setting up a system of consultation result follow-up and retrospective case discussion.
