      Abstract:Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has been widely applied with the introduction of related quality control specifications and requirements. However, a perfect and thorough interpretation of the specifications and the research on the operational methods of the quality control program are still in process, which restricts the application and promotion of the CRRT quality control technology and hinders the implementation of the optimization scheme for clinical safety management. This paper analyzes and interprets the Specifications for safety management and quality control of continuous renal replacement therapy equipment in clinical practice (DB 32/T 4226-2022) applicable in Jiangsu Province. This paper facilitates relevant practitioners to learn and master CRRT quality control methods. An optimized QC scheme can help to efficiently manage the clinical application of CRRT and enhance the safety and standardization of the treatment.

      Abstract:ObjectivesThis paper investigates the impact of implementing a tripartite handover system on the sterilization quality defects of dressings packs in a medical sterile supply center.MethodsThe control group consisted of 235,269 dressing packs routinely sterilized from January to December 2020, while the observation group adopted 245,284 dressing packs routinely sterilized from January to December 2021. All dressing packs were collected from the Synergy Health Suzhou Medical Sterile Supply Center. The paper compared the quality defect control of dressing pack sterilization before and after the implementation of a tripartite handover system, as well as the customer satisfaction evaluation on improving sterilization supply service in twenty hospitals before and after the improvement of sterilization service.ResultsThe control and observation groups had total defect rates of 0.47‰ and 0.21‰, respectively, and the four quality defect rates of cleaning, packing, sterilization, and transfer, as well as the nine specific quality defect rates, were all improved (P<0.05). Customer satisfaction increased to 93.8 points, and the total satisfaction rate was 8.44%, among which four evaluation dimensions were improved (P<0.05).ConclusionThe implementation of the tripartite handover system can effectively improve the sterilization quality of dressing packs in the Medical Sterile Supply Center and improve customer satisfaction, which is worth popularizing and applying.

      Abstract:ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the application of an optimized management process in the management of external instruments in the central sterile supply department (CSSD).MethodsThe 6 645 external instrument packages before process optimization from January to March 2023 were set as the control group, and 6 576 external instrument packages after optimization from April to June 2023 were set as the observation group. The management quality of external instruments was compared and the operating room's feedback was analyzed.ResultsIn the observation group, the unqualified rates of instrument cleaning, power tool cleaning, packaging, sterilization, and distribution recorded in the checklist of external instruments were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Before and after the optimization of the management process, the rate of non-recycling, cleaning and sterilization after use in the operating room were all 0. Additionally, in the observation group, the feedback supply timeliness rate, sub-packaging completeness rate, and supply satisfaction rate in the operating room were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionThe optimized management process of external instruments in CSSD emphasizes the division of labor among each staff member, which enhances performance efficiency, and thus is worth being promoted in CSSDs.
