Reduced unplanned return to intensive care ward: Setting up a “Respiratory care ward” effectiveness
Introduction:
Re-admission to the accidental intensive care unit has been identified as a reliable indicator of intensive care. However, domestic or foreign studies have shown that the main reason for patients returning to the intensive care unit is respiratory disease is the main reason for ICU re-admission. The re-admission of unscheduled ICUs not only increased medical costs and lengthened hospital stays, but also increased patient mortality and morbidity. Therefore, in order to make more effective use of the resources of the intensive care unit, an “enhanced respiratory treatment room” has been added. Strengthen respiratory clearance and assess its effectiveness.Clinical features and results documented the reasons for the patient’s return to the intensive care unit through medical records and collected information about unplanned return to the intensive care unit. We found that the patient had to be re-intubated due to sputum and respiratory problems. Then return to the intensive care unit up to 40%.
Method:
This study was started in September 2014 with the addition of the “Strengthening Respiratory Nursing Ward” and setting of patient admission criteria: (1) Intensive Care Unit (2)suction more than 5 convulsions per class (8 hours) (3)18 Aged and above. Treatment exclusion: (1) Use of a ventilator (2) Hemodynamic instability. The statistical analysis and comparison of the percentage of return of the intensive care unit before and after the “enhanced respiratory care before and after the return to the intensive care unit” and the respiratory problems resulted in the intensive care unit return were collected in a medical record review.
Result:
Since the establishment of “Enhanced Respiratory Care Unit”, The number of patients who returned to the intensive care unit due to breathing problems fell from 40.4% to 28.0%. After the intervention, the proportion of non-planned intensive care units returning to the ward fell from 5.9% to 3.2%.
After the completion of the statistical study, the return to intensive care unit and unplanned return to intensive care unit management was 4.6% in 2014, 3.9% in 2015, 2.9% in 2016, and 2.1% in 2017, confirming that additional measures are effective .
Conclusion:
The results of the study showed that the rate of relapse of respiratory problems in intensive care units was effectively improved and reduced. Reduce the number of hospitalizations in intensive care units, increase resource utilization in intensive care units, avoid wasting medical resources, and effectively reduce the proportion of unplanned return to intensive care units throughout the hospital
