Title: 5S quality management for analysis of operation room nursing safety hazards and the results
Abstract: Objective
To explore the 5S quality management for analyzing the hidden danger of nursing safety at operation room and the results.
Methods
10 nurses from the operation room of our hospital were selected to form a 5S quality management group. The operating room patients from January to April, 2008 were selected before 5S quality management as a control group; and the patients from May to July 2018 after 5S quality management were selected as a study group. The item management situations before and after 5S quality management and the patients’ satisfaction to the nurses were compared between these two groups.
Results
After 5S quality management, the occurrence of expired items decreased obviously, and the working environment finishing time and the time of taking and putting items were shortened obviously [ (2.85±0.87) per month vs. (0.34±0.14) per month, (26.38±4.40) min vs. (15.34±2.91) min, and (33.25±12.54) min vs. (24.37±5.34) min, all P<0.05]. The patient’ satisfaction to the nurses was significantly higher in the study group than in the control group [(90.24±5.14) vs. (81.24±3.27)], with a statistical difference (P<0.05).
Conclusion
Application of 5S quality management in operation room nursing care can reduce the occurrence of expired articles, create a clean working environment, and improve patients' satisfaction.
