Abstract

In 2023, the Intensive Care Unit at the Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust became the first in the UK to achieve Gold Standards Framework (GSF) accreditation. This study evaluates the impact of GSF implementation on end-of-life care delivery and associated metrics. Coding of end-of-life care increased from 10.7% to 16.1% and the proportion of deaths recognised as GSF Amber/Red rose from 14.5% to 58.1% with an increased number of referrals to Specialist Palliative Care. GSF accreditation was associated with sustained improvements in key end-of-life care metrics in intensive care, enhancing collaboration with Specialist Palliative Care and supporting more individualised, patient-centred care.

将临终关怀纳入重症监护实践:金标准框架认证后的结果。
2023年,达德利集团NHS基金会信托的重症监护室成为英国第一个获得黄金标准框架(GSF)认证的机构。本研究评估GSF实施对临终关怀交付和相关指标的影响。临终关怀的编码从10.7%增加到16.1%,被认定为GSF琥珀色/红色的死亡比例从14.5%增加到58.1%,转诊到专科姑息治疗的人数增加。GSF认证与重症监护关键临终关怀指标的持续改善有关,加强了与专科姑息治疗的合作,并支持更个性化、以患者为中心的护理。

期刊介绍: The Journal of the Intensive Care Society (JICS) is an international, peer-reviewed journal that strives to disseminate clinically and scientifically relevant peer-reviewed research, evaluation, experience and opinion to all staff working in the field of intensive care medicine. Our aim is to inform clinicians on the provision of best practice and provide direction for innovative scientific research in what is one of the broadest and most multi-disciplinary healthcare specialties. While original articles and systematic reviews lie at the heart of the Journal, we also value and recognise the need for opinion articles, case reports and correspondence to guide clinically and scientifically important areas in which conclusive evidence is lacking. The style of the Journal is based on its founding mission statement to ‘instruct, inform and entertain by encompassing the best aspects of both tabloid and broadsheet''.
