Abstract:
Objective: To explore the potential influencing factors of the quality guidelines for medical treatment by factor analysis.Method: We analyzed with the SPSS package 9 quality guidelines for medical treatment in the department of integrated TCM and Western medicine of a hospital,including the out-patient person-time,the number of discharges,the average days of hospitalization,the rate of bed utilization,the frequency of bed rotation,the rate of cure and improvement,the case fatality rate,the coincidence rate of diagnoses at admission and discharge,and the success rate of emergency treatment.Results: Four common factors were extracted,namely,the quantifiable factor,determined by the out-patient person-time,the number of discharges,the average days of hospitalization and the frequency of bed rotation;the treatment factor,determined by the cure and improvement rate and case fatality rate;the diagnostic factor,determined mainly by the rate of bed utilization and the coincidence rate of diagnoses at admission and discharge;and the emergency treatment factor,determined by the success rate of emergency treatment.The cumulative contribution rate of the 4 factors was 85.1%.Conclusion: The amount of medical work,the techniques of treatment,the ability of diagnosis and the efficiency of emergency rescue are the main influencing factors of quality guidelines for medical treatment.
