摘要: 目的 运用PDCA循环缩短儿科门诊候诊时间,提升患者就医满意度。方法 建立儿科门诊候诊管理工作小组,回顾性分析2024年1月至2024年6月于中山大学附属第七医院儿科门诊就诊的28 612例次患儿的候诊时间及满意度,运用PDCA循环法[计划(Plan)、实施(Do)、检查(Check)、处理(Act)],提出并实施改进措施,比较实施前后儿科门诊候诊时间、门诊患者满意度的差异。结果 (1)影响候诊时间的主要因素包括:预约挂号患者迟到、患者未提前预约挂号、返诊秩序混乱、号源设置不合理等;(2)实施 PDCA后,患者候诊时间缩短(P<0.05),其中,预约挂号、现场挂号、下午就诊患者的候诊时间均缩短;门诊患者满意度提高(P<0.05)。结论 基于PDCA循环法,分析影响候诊时间的重要因素,再针对相关问题实施改进,可有效缩短儿科门诊候诊时间、提高患者满意度。

Abstract: Objective This study aimed to implement the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle in pediatric outpatients to shorten the waiting time and improve patient satisfaction. Methods A project team was established to carry out improvement work. The waiting time and patient satisfaction of 28 612 pediatric outpatients in the Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2024 to June 2024 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the PDCA management method, we analyzed the possible causes, supervised the implementation of measures, and compared the differences in waiting time and patient satisfaction between before and after implementation. Results The main factors affecting waiting time in pediatric outpatients included: late arrival of patients who have made appointments, low proportion of appointments in advance, disordered follow-up visits, and unreasonable allocation of registration. After the implementation of PDCA cycle, the waiting time was shortened (P<0.05), particularly for the patients who made appointments, registered on-site, and visitsed in the afternoon; the patient satisfaction was improved (P<0.05). Conclusion The PDCA method is helpful in shortening waiting time and improving patient satisfaction in pediatric outpatients.
