Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To improve the utilization rate of intravenous infusion in inpatients and enhance the level of rational drug use. METHODS PDCA cycle method was used to formulate and implement countermeasures from the aspects of institution, system, person and management. The utilization rate of intravenous infusion and the average daily number of bags (bottles) per bed for intravenous infusion were used as indicators to evaluate the implementation effect of PDCA. RESULTS The utilization rate of intravenous infusion decreased from (92.58±0.11)% 3 months before PDCA cycle to (89.72±0.62)% 3 months after PDCA cycle, and the average daily number of bags (bottles) per bed from intravenous infusion decreased from 5.20±0.09 to 4.64±0.24 (P< 0.05). The utilization rate of intravenous infusion decreased from 92.55% 6 months before PDCA cycle to 89.98% 6 months after PDCA cycle (P<0.05); but average daily number of bags (bottles) per bed for intravenous infusion decreased from 5.36±0.26 6 months before PDCA cycle to 4.97±0.39 6 months after PDCA cycle, without statistical significance (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS PDCA cycle method can effectively reduce the utilization rate and average daily number of bags (bottles) per bed for intravenous infusion in the inpatients and improve the level of rational drug use.
