Abstract
Purpose: Early rehabilitation after stroke can improve the prognosis of patients and enhance the effectiveness and quality of rehabilitation. Whether Quality Control Circle (QCC), as a quality management method, can be used to improve the early rehabilitation intervention rate of stroke patients has not been reported. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of QCC in increasing the early rehabilitation intervention rate of stroke patients, providing a reference program for quality improvement in rehabilitation medicine.
Methods: The study was conducted based on a repeated measurement design. QCC was applied to improve the early rehabilitation intervention rate of stroke patients at Zhongshan Hospital (Xiamen), Fudan University from August to December 2023. The QCC activities were conducted following the standardized sequence of theme selection, activity planning, current situation grasping, goal setting, analysis, countermeasure formulation, countermeasure implementation and review, effect confirmation, standardization, review and improvement. The effect of the QCC was evaluated by comparing the changes in the early rehabilitation intervention rate of stroke patients before and after the QCC in 9 months.
Results: The early rehabilitation intervention rate of stroke patients before QCC was (45.23 ± 12.10) %, the rate after QCC was (59.55 ± 18.17) %, and demonstrated statistically significant improvement (t=3.667, P=0.006).
Conclusion: Applying the method of QCC can improve the early rehabilitation intervention rate of stroke patients, which will help to improve the quality of rehabilitation medicine.
目的:脑卒中后早期康复可改善患者预后,提高康复效果和质量。质量控制圈(Quality Control Circle, QCC)作为一种质量管理方法能否提高脑卒中患者早期康复干预率,目前尚无相关报道。本研究旨在探讨QCC对提高脑卒中患者早期康复干预率的效果,为提高康复医学质量提供参考方案。方法:采用重复测量设计。2023年8月至12月在复旦大学附属中山医院(厦门)应用QCC提高脑卒中患者早期康复干预率。QCC活动按照主题选择、活动策划、现状把握、目标设定、分析、对策制定、对策实施及评审、效果确认、规范化、评审、改进的标准化顺序进行。通过比较QCC前后9个月脑卒中患者早期康复干预率的变化来评价QCC的效果。结果:QCC前脑卒中患者早期康复干预率为(45.23±12.10)%,QCC后脑卒中患者早期康复干预率为(59.55±18.17)%,改善有统计学意义(t=3.667, P=0.006)。结论:应用QCC方法可提高脑卒中患者早期康复干预率,有助于提高康复医学质量。
