Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the application and feasibility of tracer methodology in the continuous improvement of high-alert medications management in the hospital,and to improve the quality of high-alert medications management and ensure the safety of clinical medication. METHODS:According to the theory and requirements of tracer methodology,a series of interven-tions were applied to the management of high-alert medications in our hospital. The comparisons on the mastery of high-alert medi-cations knowledge,review and evaluation results and the incidence of adverse events were conducted before and after applying trac-er methodology,so as to evaluate the improvement effect of tracer methodology on high-alert medications management. RESULTS:After implementing intervention measures such as the reduction of high-alert medications list and medical staff training about high-alert medications,compared to before management,medical staffs had improved the knowledge level of high-alert medica-tions (the average awareness rate increased from 69.6% to 88.5%);the review and evaluation results had been improved signifi-cantly (the proportion of the terms with qualified level evaluation results or above increased from 66.67% to 88.89%);the inci-dence of adverse events was reduced(from 0.321% to 0.139%). CONCLUSIONS:The tracer methodology has a significant effect on the management of high-alert medications in our hospital. It is feasible and can be widely used in the management of high-alert medications in the hospitals.
