摘要

目的探讨和描述急诊科(ED)患者对盆腔检查(PV)的期望、看法和经历,并描述急诊科临床医生对PV的态度和看法。方法采用问卷调查和半结构化访谈的混合方法,对同一卫生服务机构(三级急诊科和城区急诊科)的两家急诊科的患者和临床医生进行调查。定量数据用方法和比例进行描述性报告。定性描述方法和专题分析用于从访谈中发展主题,并从参与者的第一手经验中收集细致的见解。结果临床医生共完成84份问卷和9次访谈。患者完成63份问卷和8次访谈。定量和定性数据合并形成四个主题:(1)PV在急诊科的可变临床效用,(2)缺乏急诊科临床医生的信心和培训,(3)床边态度是对患者体验的主要影响,以及(4)进行亲密检查的急诊科设置不足。结论PVs在ED中的应用尚不明确,避免不必要的侵入性检查至关重要。然而,紧急pv有时是需要的,参与者提出了可行的建议,以改善在急诊科进行pv时提供的临床护理。这四个主题可以为未来的策略提供信息,以提高临床医生在执行pv时的培训,信心和技能水平。这将提高患者的整体体验和满意度,并减少在急诊科中PV体验不足的下游负面后果。

A Mixed Methods Exploration of Patient and Clinician Perspectives of Pelvic Examinations in Emergency Departments

Objectives

To explore and describe patients' expectations, perceptions and experiences of having a pelvic examination (PV) in the emergency department (ED) and to describe ED clinicians' attitudes and perceptions regarding PVs.

Methods

A mixed methods study using questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with patients and clinicians at two EDs in the same health service (tertiary ED and urban district ED) between May 2023 and February 2024. Quantitative data are reported descriptively using means and proportions. A qualitative descriptive approach and thematic analysis were used to develop themes from interviews and gather granular insights from participants' first-hand experiences.

Results

Clinicians completed 84 questionnaires and nine interviews. Patients completed 63 questionnaires and eight interviews. Quantitative and qualitative data were merged to form four themes: (1) the variable clinical utility of the PV in ED, (2) lack of ED clinician confidence and training, (3) bedside manner as primary influence on patient experience, and (4) the inadequate ED setting for performing intimate exams.

Conclusions

The utility of PVs in ED remains ambiguous and it is vital to avoid unnecessary invasive exams. However, urgent PVs will sometimes be needed and participants have made actionable suggestions to improve the clinical care delivered when performing PVs in ED. The four themes can inform future strategies to advance clinicians' training, confidence and skill level when performing PVs. This will lead to overall enhanced patient experience and satisfaction and reduce downstream negative consequences of having an inadequate PV experience in ED.
