ObjectiveTo explore the practical effects of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) management model in the management of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).MethodsIn 2015, the multi-drug resistant MDT was established, and MDT meetings were held regularly to focus on the problems in the management of MDROs and related measures to prevent and control nosocomial infections of MDROs.ResultsThe detection rate of MDROs from 2014 to 2017 was 9.20% (304/3 303), 7.11% (334/4 699), 8.01% (406/5 072), and 7.81% (354/4 533), respectively. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.803, P=0.008), in which the detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRABA), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) changed significantly (χ2=39.022, 17.052, 12.211; P<0.05). From 2014 to 2017, the proportion of multi-drug resistant infections decreased year by year, from 84.54% to 52.82%, and the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections also declined, from 46.05% to 23.16%; the nosocomial infection case-time rate decreased from 0.24% to 0.13% year-on-year; the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections in total hospital infections was 9.07%, 11.17%, 10.47%, and 6.16%, respectively; in the distribution of multi-drug resistant nosocomial infection bacteria, the proportion of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, CRABA, CRE hospital infections accounted for the number of MDROs detected decreased year by year. The use rate of antibiotics decreased from 46.58% in 2014 to 42.93% in 2017, and the rate of pathogens increased from 64.83% in 2014 to 84.59% in 2017.ConclusionThe MDT management mode is effective for the management and control of MDROs, which can reduce the detection rate, infection rate, hospital infection rate, and antibacterial drug use rate, increase the pathogen detection rate, and make the prevention and control of MDROs more scientific and standardized.
In 2021, West China Hospital of Sichuan University established a rare disease diagnosis and treatment and research center. The center adopts the rare disease management model of “one cohesion + four integration”, condenses the core of management, integrates clinical resources, regional alliance resources, training resources and research resources, and explores solutions for all-round services for patients with rare diseases. This article aims to explore the rare disease management model of regional central hospitals and introduces the above-mentioned rare disease management model. The purpose of this article is to promote this model, focus on the advantages of clinical departments and research institutes (offices), increase regional integration, give play to the synergy of regional alliances in clinical diagnosis and treatment and personnel training, and use international cooperation as an opportunity to promote breakthroughs in new drugs and technologies for rare diseases to benefit patients with rare diseases in China.
ObjectiveTo understand the economic burden of disinfection supply to medical institutions in Yibin City, and explore the feasibility of establishing a regional centralized management model of disinfection supply center in Yibin City.MethodsFrom April to May 2018, 263 medical institutions in the eight counties and two districts of Yibin City were investigated by means of mobile phone application-designed questionnaire, to obtain the information of cost accounting and economic burden of disinfection supply.ResultsThere were 263 medical institutions involved in the survey, in which 61 (23.19%) had set up the central sterile supply department (CSSD), including 43 public hospitals and 18 private hospitals; 202 medical institutions were without CSSD, which were mainly secondary hospitals [195 (74.14%), including 120 public hospitals and 75 private hospitals]. The higher the hospital level was, the larger the average area of the CSSD was; the difference was statistically significant (χ2=40.009, P<0.001). The higher the hospital level was, the more full-time personnel were employed, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=31.862, P<0.001), and the care staff were the majority (66.23%). The cost burden of CSSD was more than 1 million yuan in the tertiary hospitals, which was 100 000 yuan or above in 61.90% of the secondary hospitals, and was below 100 000 yuan in hospitals below secondary level. The higher the hospital level was, the higher the total cost burden became; the difference was statistically significant (χ2=37.995, P<0.001). ConclusionIn view of the heavy economic burden of CSSD in medical institutions and the unbalanced setting up of medical institutions below secondary level, the establishment of a regional CSSD centralized management model is a new direction, new trend, and new model for future development, which is conducive to improving the quality of disinfection and sterilization, reducing medical care costs, making rational use of health resources, effectively preventing hospital infections, and ensuring the medical safety.
ObjectiveNew Rural Cooperative Medical Systems (NCMS) has been constructed as a financial protection for rural population commencing 2003. With the development of NCMS, there were quite a few management models existing across the nation. In order to assess the management alternatives, we try to explore how to set up a set of indicators to analysis management effect of different management models. MethodsBy literature review, we sorted all qualitative indicators into 8 types. Delphi and Multi-Attribute utility theories were applied to construct the appraisal indicators, including shaping first and second level indicators and assigning the weights for each type of indicators. ResultsWe managed to identify the indicator system which was comprised of 4 types of first level indicators, aiming at claim, manament process, transparency and supervision on accredited hospitals. Besides, there were 9 sub-indicators. ConclusionThe evaluation indicators are constructed for future assessment on management effect of rural health insurance.
ObjectiveUse information technology to establish an “Internet+” chronic disease management model to provide patients with a full process, seamless, and convenient services. Explore a new model of “Internet+” chronic disease management and care services in the region. Methods Patients with chronic diseases treated in Mianyang Central Hospital from May 2018 to April 2019 were selected. The patients were randomly divided into intervention group and control group according to the single and even number at the end of hospitalization number. The control group adopted the traditional chronic disease management mode, and the intervention group adopted the “Internet+” chronic disease management mode based on the patients’ needs. And select the nursing experts who provide “Internet+” online nursing services. Compared with the effective management before and after the implementation of “Internet+” chronic disease management, the number of patients with chronic diseases, clinical outcome indicators, the number of health education readings, the number of Internet nursing services, and the sense of professional benefit of nurses and other indicators, etc. Results A total of 143 patients were included, including 78 in the control group and 65 in the intervention group. A total of 28 nursing experts were investigated. The effective management rate of patients with chronic diseases was 78.7%. The WeChat public account “Slow Disease Window” has read nearly 90 000 person-times, and the Internet Hospital “Nursing Professional Online” has nearly 2 000 online nursing services. After participating in “Internet+” chronic disease management, the disease activity and functional status of chronic disease patients were significantly improved (P<0.05). Nursing professionals have a strong sense of professional benefits (P<0.05). Conclusions With the development of “Internet+” chronic disease management, a new mode of chronic disease management was explored to promote the management of chronic disease more convenient and efficient, so that the health education work can be homogenized, the clinical outcome of the patients was effectively improved. At the same time the career planning of nursing staff can be broadened.
The number of new cancer cases in China has been increasing year by year, but with the continuous innovation of medical technology, cancer is gradually becoming a chronic disease. The contradiction between the increasingly large tumor patient population and limited medical resources is becoming more prominent, so the mode of daytime chemotherapy has been widely promoted. This article is based on the operational practice of the “one-stop” daytime chemotherapy center at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine. It shares experiences in management mode and system construction (such as spatial layout, personnel structure, operation process, emergency process, job responsibilities, quantitative indicators), showcases the construction achievements of the “one-stop” daytime chemotherapy center, and proposes suggestions for improving the centralized daytime chemotherapy mode.
