Resumo: Introdução: As condições econômicas e sociais encontradas na maior parte da África sub-Saariana são refletidas na qualidade da assistência à saúde. A melhora das condições de assistência ambulatorial e médico-hospitalar, neste contexto, envolve a capacitação do capital humano, isto é, treinamento e formação de profissionais, e alocação de recursos para insumos e infraestrutura. Dadas às limitações econômicas e técnicas do continente, essas ações costumam ser viabilizadas por ações cooperativas entre governos e instituições locais e estrangeiras. No Hospital Central de Maputo (HCM), em cooperação com o Ministério da Saúde de Moçambique (MSM), a Unicamp desenvolveu um projeto de pesquisa visando à identificação de necessidades de infraestrutura hospitalar e capacitação profissional com vistas a melhorar as taxas de infecção hospitalar e a qualidade à assistência em geral. Objetivo: 1) avaliar as ações executadas desde 2008 pelo MSM, junto com outros organismos multinacionais, na Enfermaria de Cirurgia (EC) do HCM, com vistas à humanização e correção de deficiências primárias de infraestrutura e capacitação profissional; e 2) avaliar fatores relacionados às taxas de infecção hospitalar em pacientes internados na EC e elaborar um plano de controle de infecção hospitalar aplicável e exequível segundo as condições locais. Métodos: Na primeira parte do estudo (referente ao objetivo 1), relatamos o processo de melhorias implementadas na EC a partir da aplicação de um Instrumento de Avaliação de Desempenho (IAD), desenvolvido em colaboração com o MSM, cujas funções eram determinar as necessidades de recursos humanos, organização em serviço, segurança do paciente e satisfação da equipe profissional. O IAD também determinava 83 metas, relacionadas aqueles aspectos mencionados. Este instrumento foi inicialmente utilizado em 2009, e a partir dos resultados obtidos foram delineadas e implantadas intervenções voltadas à correção das limitações do serviço. A partir de então, o IAD permaneceu em uso contínuo pelos profissionais da EC e os resultados obtidos subsequentemente são relatados e comentados nesta tese. A segunda parte do estudo (referente ao objetivo 2) trata das duas primeiras de três fases de um estudo de intervenção, desenhado para 1) determinar a taxa de infecção hospitalar (IH) e suas características na Enfermaria de Cirurgia; 2) propor um plano de controle de IH (PCIH) baseado nos achados de 1). A fase 3, que visa a implantação do PCIH e a avaliação de seus resultados, será realizada posteriormente. Resultados: Em janeiro de 2009, na primeira aplicação do IAD, 49% das metas preconizadas já eram atingidas pela EC; após ações baseadas nos resultados da primeira aplicação do IAD, em junho e setembro de 2009, 88% e 90% das metas haviam sido atingidas, respectivamente. Foram detectadas melhoras substanciais nas práticas de enfermagem, níveis de satisfação de pacientes e estudantes, higienização do ambiente hospitalar e organização do serviço. Em 2011, teve início a segunda parte do estudo, referente à infecção hospitalar na EC. A taxa de IH foi estabelecida em 16.6% e esteve associada ao maior tempo de internação dos pacientes e à menor utilização de artigos hospitalares críticos (agulhas, sondas, bisturis, entre outros). Foi desenvolvido um plano de controle de infecção hospitalar que aborda a melhoria do treinamento de profissionais médicos e não médicos para os fatores associados à IH. Conclusões: A intervenção baseada na elaboração e aplicação o IAD permitiu a melhoria de indicadores de qualidade e satisfação em uma Enfermaria de Cirurgia de um hospital moçambicano, e a taxa de infecção na Enfermaria de Cirurgia do HCM pode ser reduzida com intervenções voltadas a redução do tempo de hospitalização e maior investimento em artigos hospitalares críticos
Abstract: Introduction: The economic and social conditions found in most of sub- Saharan Africa are reflected in the quality of health care. The improvement of the conditions of outpatient care and healthcare in this context involves the training of human capital, ie, education and training of professionals, and resource allocation to inputs and infrastructure. Given the economic and technical limitations of the continent, these actions are often made possible by cooperative actions between governments, local and foreign intuitions. In Maputo Central Hospital (HCM), in cooperation with the Ministry of Health of Mozambique (MSM), Unicamp developed a research project aimed at identifying basic needs of hospital infrastructure and professional training in order to decrease hospital infection rates and quality of care in general. Objective: 1) to evaluate actions taken since 2008 by the MSM, along with other international organizations in surgery ward (EC) HCM, to improve humanization and correction of deficiencies related to infrastructure and job training, and 2) to evaluate essential aspects related to hospital infection rates in patients hospitalized at EC and develop a plan for hospital infection control applicable and enforceable according to local conditions. Methods: In the first part of the study (for the purpose of 1), we report the improvement process implemented in EC from the application of a Performance Assessment (PA), developed in collaboration with the MSM, whose duties were to determine the needs of human resources, service organization, patient safety and satisfaction of professional staff. The PA also determined 83 goals, related to those aspects. This instrument was first used in 2009, and from the results obtained was outlined and implemented interventions that aimed at correcting the limitations of the service. Since then, the PA remained in continuous use by professional EC and results are reported and discussed in this thesis. The second part of the study (related to objective 2) addresses the first two of three phases of an intervention study designed to 1) investigate the rate of nosocomial infection (NI) and their characteristics in MS, 2) propose a control plan IH (HICP) based on the findings of 1) Phase 3, which aims to set the HICP and the evaluation of its results, will be held later. Results: In January 2009, the first application of the IAD, 49% of the recommended goals were already stricken ECII; following actions based on the results of the first application of the IAD in June and September 2009, 88% and 90% of the targets had been reached, respectively. We detected substantial improvements in nursing practice, levels of satisfaction of patients and students, hygienic cleaning and service organization. In 2011 began the second part of the study, referring to nosocomial infection in EC. The rate of NI was established in 16.6% and was associated with longer hospital patients staying and less use of hospital critical items (needles, probes, scalpels, etc.). A plan was developed for hospital infection control that addresses the improvement of the training of medical professionals and decrease of nonmedical factors associated with IH. Conclusions: The intervention based on development and implementation PA allowed the improvement of quality indicators and satisfaction in a general ward of a hospital Mozambique, and the rate of infection in the General Infirmary HCM, can be reduced with interventions aimed at reducing the time hospitalization and greater investment in hospital critical articles

Повний текст джерелаObjectives The incidence of nosocomial infections in the General ICU of the Hospital São Vicente de Paulo was evaluated using adjusted rates for patients’ lenght of stay and time of device exposure. We also determined the differences in the rates of infections according basic reason for admission (trauma, neurological, and medical-surgical). Material and Methods From March 1 to December 31 1999, patients in the General ICU were prospectively followed for detection of nosocomial infection during their stay. Diagnosis of nosocomial infection was made according to the Centers for Disease Control e Prevention (CDC) definitions and the rates were calculated according to the methods of the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance (NNIS) System. Results Six hundred eighty-six patients (4,201 patient-days) were followed. One hundred twenty-five nosocomial infections occurred and the overall rate was 18.2% or 29.8 infections per 1,000 patient-days. The most commonly found infection sites were: pneumonia (40%), urinary tract infection (24%), and primary bloodstream infections (12.8%). Device-associated nosocomial infection rates were as follows: 32.2 pneumonias per 1,000 ventilator-days, 9.7 urinary infections per 1,000 indwelling urinary catheter-days, and 7 bloodstream infection per 1,000 central venous catheter-days. Overall incidence of infection in trauma (26.8) and neurological (20.7%) groups was higher than in the medical-surgical group (12.2%), p<0.001. Conclusions Our study found a high incidence of pneumonia and high rates of nosocomial infections associated with use of an invasive device in this ICU. The basic cause for admission affected infection rates, suggesting the need for a stratified analysis of patients in the General ICU by basic reason for admission.

Повний текст джерелаThis research proposes a tool for evaluation of hospital services on the basis of assistance, infrastructure and management practices as a way to contribute to the health care management in Brazil. Thus, we identified that Brazilians prepaid health plans/health insurance and hospitals do not have a comprehensive and appropriate instrument for measuring the quality of multi-specialist hospital services, available to their customers for the three aspects above mentioned of this hospital services. Consequently, there is no differentiation in price scales between contracted prepaid health plans/health insurance and hospitals that are based on technical criteria and to encourage competition among service providers regarding to efficiency, quality and cost of services to clients/patients. Through literature review we sought to understand the economic dynamics of the health care management field in Brazil, the commercial relationship between participants, the methods of hospital classification available in Brazil, legal and technical criteria for evaluation of medical assistance, the hospital infrastructure and practices of hospital administration. It was obtained at the end of this research a diagnostic tool, of the check list type, for measuring the technical conditions of hospital services provided to clients by the evaluated institutions.

Повний текст джерелаThere is a present consensus that the process of control and prevention of infection associated to health services (IAHS) based on result indicators is limited to recognize the real conditions in which assistance practices are performed. So, processual evaluations have been required to know the conformity level of these events in relation to recommendations given by scientific evidence now available. The aim of this study was to analyze the conformity of adhesion to the practices of control and prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) by means of specifically elaborated processual clinical indicators. These practices corresponded to: a) Evaluation of adherence to specific measures of prevention and control of VAP: maintaining the bed in a 30-45 degrees head-up position; daily respiratory physiotherapy; use of sterile solutions for nebulizers and inhalers; material of respiratory therapy in use respecting established routine of change; b) Evaluation of adherence to oral hygiene; c) Evaluation of adherence to hand-washing procedures when performing orotracheal aspiration, change of tape of the orotracheal cannula and oral hygiene. This was an applied research involving findings on performance of practices and procedures aiming to access its quality, through a prospective transversal and analytical design. It took place in an Adult-ICU of a Public Teaching Hospital. The casuistic corresponded to opportunities of evaluation of the selected practices performed by nurses, nursing assistant, nursing technicians and physiotherapists in the three work shifts in patients with orotracheal intubation. The sample was based on the expected conformity of 80%, with 1,748 evaluations distributed among the selected practices performed by means of direct observation and registers in patient records. Instruments and evaluators were submitted to tests for measuring compliance. The general conformity adhesion index obtained in the specific measures of control and prevention of VAP was 68.0%, of which the afternoon shift presented the greatest index (72.4%) and the morning shift with the lowest index (63.2%). The index of general conformity to the practice of oral hygiene was 60.1%, of which the morning shift presented the best index (72.4%) and the night shift with the worst (47.4%). Among the mentioned modalities the largest conformity was the CHX 0.12% application in all shifts, but only the morning shift reached the minimum expected conformity (90% in the morning; 73.7% at night and 72.9% in the afternoon). The less accepted modality was teeth cleaning and CHX 0.12% application in all shift works (3.6% at night; 28.6% in the afternoon; 33.3% in the morning). General conformity of hand hygiene practice in the performance of selected procedures was only 10.7%, the largest conformity represented by orotracheal aspiration (18.9%), followed by tape change (7.9%) and oral hygiene (5.3%). The morning shift obtained the best adherence (16.7%) and night shift the worst (3.1%). In this practice the best index of conformity was observed among the physiotherapists (25.8%), followed by nurses (15.6%) and the nursing assistants and technicians (4.4%). We concluded that the lack of the expected general adherence of 80% in all the evaluations justify a review of the rules and routines established, as well as the elaboration of strategies capable to assure a permanent adherence to the control and prevention practices of VAP, associated to a continuum analysis of infrastructure and work conditions. It was also evident the relevance of processual evaluations as routine activities of control and prevention programs of VAP

A análise dos modos de falhas e efeitos (FMEA) na área da saúde vem sendo buscada por gestores, desse segmento de prestação de serviços, como uma forma consistente de se trabalhar eventos adversos antes que os mesmos aconteçam ou tenham um impacto direto sobre a assistência dos pacientes. Um dos processos de trabalhos desses ambientes é a prática médica com órteses, próteses e materiais especiais (OPME), que acontece invariavelmente dentro de áreas críticas das instituições de saúde, podendo ser desencadeadora de riscos assistenciais aos pacientes. O processo de OPME é crítico desde a definição dos materiais indicados para a intervenção, passando pelos processos administrativos de orçamentos e autorizações, pelas ações assistenciais de solicitação, recebimento, preparo e finalizando na utilização desse insumo. Assim sendo, todo esse processo deve estar plenamente ajustado e adequado para atender as necessidades específicas de cada usuário. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar as falhas potenciais no processo de OPME através da utilização da metodologia FMEA em um hospital de grande porte de Porto Alegre . A fim de atingir esse objetivo se formou um grupo de avaliação para revisão e redefinição do fluxograma do processo de OPME e após levantamento de modos de falhas em cada etapa desse processo. Foram verificadas ao todo 16 falhas nas etapas e a partir delas, foram levantadas 19 possíveis causas para sua ocorrência, bem como oito efeitos potenciais das falhas sobre a assistência dos pacientes. Após esse levantamento o grupo classificou o índice de risco, conforme a gravidade, ocorrência e detecção de falha, para cada efeito elencado e foram levantadas ações passíveis de implementação com vistas a redução do risco assistencial representados por falhas no processo de OPME. Entende-se que esse estudo possa auxiliar instituições hospitalares na implantação de ações para redução do risco assistencial aos pacientes imputado por falhas no processo de OPME.
The failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) in heal thcare area is being sought by managers that service segment as a consistent way to work adverse events before they happen or have a direct impact on the patient care. One of these processes work environments is the medical practice with orthosis, prostheses and special materials, that happens invariably within critical areas of health institutions, can be a trigger for patient care risks. The orthosis, prostheses and special materials process is critical since definition materials indicated for the intervention, passing by the administrative processes of budgets and authorizations, care actions by request, receipt, preparation and finishing in the use of these materials. Thus, the entire process should be fully adjusted and suited to attend the specific needs of each user. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential flaws in the orthosis, prostheses and special materials process through the use of FMEA methodology. In order to achieve this goal it has formed an analysis group for review and redefinition of the flowchart of orthosis, prostheses and special materials and after survey of failure modes at each stage of that process. 16 failures in the steps were observed in all and from those, 19 were raised possible causes for their occurrence, as well as 8 potential effects of failures on the patients care. Following this survey group rated the risk index, depending on the severity, occurrence and detection of failure for each part listed effect and actions capable of implementation in order to reduce healthcare risk represented by failures in the orthosis, prostheses and special materials process were raised. It understands that this study may assist hospitals in implementing actions to reduce risk to patients care imputed by orthosis, prostheses and special materials flaws in the process.

Повний текст джерелаHospital infections (HI) are considered to be important complication factors of inpatient treatments, because they cause suffering, contribute with higher morbidity and mortality rates, and increase the length of stay, eventually increasing the costs of hospitalization. The Hospital Infection Control Program (HICP) remains the best acknowledged alternative to establishing HI prevention and control measures, and evaluating HICP performance is essential across different health facilities, because just the fact Brazil has laws determining the implementation of a HICP is not enough to guarantee it will be implemented and function effectively. According to literature, working processes should be evaluated considering indicators of structure, process and outcome. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of health care delivered in hospitals in the city of Ribeirão Preto, in terms of adopting HICP guidelines. This is a descriptive and exploratory study, using a quantitative approach. The population consisted of 16 HICP of the city health network services, 13 of them participated in the study. Data collection was performed through interviews with the members of hospital infection control committees (HICC) of the services included, and by analyzing substantiating documents. The instruments used, in the form of clinical process indicators, are of public domain and made available by the Manual of Indicators for HI Control Practice Evaluation. The Indicator 1 for the Evaluation of the Technical-Operational Structure of the HICP (CPTS) presented a 75% compliance, and the main non-compliance issues were regarding the need for medical professionals (46.15%) or, yet, nurses that were not exclusive to the HICC and/or with insufficient working hours (38.46%), besides the lack of a specified and exclusive physical area (30.77%). Regarding the Indicator for the Evaluation of the Operational Guidelines for HI Control and Prevention (CPOG) the compliance rate was 58.97%. The item with the lowest compliance rate referred to the standardization of germicide and antiseptic solutions (46.15%). The Indicator for the Evaluation of the Epidemiological Surveillance System for HI (CPES) presented 82% compliance. The component with high inadequacy (46.16%) was that which verifies if reports correlate HI outcomes with the adopted control and prevention strategies (interventions). Another item with poor compliance was related to the standard criteria used to notify HI, which is followed only by an average of 60% of the institutions. Regarding the Indicator for the Evaluation of HI Control and Prevention Activities (CPPC) a 60.29% compliance rate was obtained, in that in terms of the activities performed in the clinical and pathological anatomy analysis laboratory none of the services presented evidence of their implementation. The present investigation allowed for identifying that these indicators are applicable to health institutions, and, therefore, could and should be used for internal audits, as well as by the health surveillance with the purpose of evaluating HICP. In conclusion, HICC are often restricted to bureaucratic activities, such as completing report and forwarding fees to enforce compliance of the law and fail to make effective efforts in improving service quality and patient safety, identifying the infection problems and working to achieve a real reduction in HI rates, which shows a gap between guidelines and practice

Повний текст джерелаDans le monde, presque 10,6 millions d’enfants meurent chaque année avant d’avoir atteint leur cinquième anniversaire. En dépit de l’existence théorique d’interventions curatives efficaces, on constate que la mortalité intrahospitalière peut demeurer très élevée dans les services de pédiatrie de nombreux pays à faible revenu notamment en Afrique. Pour améliorer la prise en charge des enfants dans ces hôpitaux et par conséquent la survie des enfants, il est nécessaire avant tout de faire le constat de la situation et de la reconnaître, d’en analyser les causes, de s’attaquer aux déterminants vulnérables et de se doter d’outils d’évaluation de la qualité de soins dans les hôpitaux. En tant que pédiatre oeuvrant à l’HPG, j’ai constaté que la mortalité intrahospitalière était élevée. Fruit d’une démarche personnelle, ce travail avait pour objectif global la réduction de cette mortalité.
Pour y arriver, les objectifs spécifiques étaient les suivants :
1) Décrire et évaluer la qualité des soins intrahospitaliers chez les enfants à l’HPG.
2)Préciser la mortalité intrahospitalière globale ainsi que les mortalités spécifiques.
3)Etudier l’importance des facteurs associés à la surmortalité des enfants à l’Hôpital Provincial de Goma.
4)Construire un modèle de prédiction de la mortalité globale intrahospitalière ainsi qu’un score pronostique adapté au contexte.
5)Mettre en place un programme de formation et de supervision du personnel médical et paramédical.
6)Etudier l’impact de ce programme sur la mortalité intrahospitalière.
Méthodologie
Les analyses ont porté sur les données des études qui se sont déroulés dans le service de pédiatrie de l’hôpital provincial de Goma (HPG), il s’agit des études suivantes: une étude descriptive d’observation d’évaluation de la qualité des soins intrahospitaliers des enfants en décembre 2004 (étude qualitative utilisant la méthode de Nolan), une étude de cohorte prospective intrahospitalière portant sur les indicateurs prédictifs de la mortalité (du 1er avril 2003 au 31 mars 2004) (« avant ») ,suivi d’une intervention dont l’impact avait été évalué de nouveau par une étude de cohorte prospective intrahospitalière (du 1er janvier 2005 au 31 décembre 2005) (« après ») (étude d’intervention quasi-expérimentale).

A) -Les facteurs qui augmentent le risque de décès étaient la référence tardive et la sévérité de la maladie à l’admission.
-Les facteurs limitant la qualité de la prise en charge et qui contribuaient probablement au mauvais pronostic étaient :
1)A l’admission, le triage n’était pas toujours correctement fait, les soins d’urgences étaient retardés l’après-midi et la nuit et 12% des admissions étaient différés. Il n’y avait pas de grille d’évaluation initiale, ni des guides pratiques de l’OMS, ni les guides standardisés de prise en charge, ni de kit d’urgence.
2)En hospitalisation, il y avait une insuffisance en nombre du staff (surtout l’après-midi et la nuit), le monitoring de base et les soins infirmiers étaient insuffisants surtout la nuit, les cliniciens notaient les signes cliniques, mais ne les documentaient pas toujours, le délai pour avoir le diagnostic était trop long et l’indisponibilité des médicaments prescrits.
-Le staff du service avait des connaissances théoriques et pratiques insuffisantes et une motivation insuffisante
B)-Durant la première étude de cohorte, une mortalité globale de 15,9% et des mortalités spécifiques anormalement élevées ont été observés. Les enfants les plus à risque de décès avaient, à l’admission, les caractéristiques suivantes :un âge < 1 an, un périmètre brachial < 115 mm ou un retard de croissance pondérale (-3< Z-PPA ≤ -2 et Z-PPA ≤ -3), une altération de la conscience, une raideur de la nuque, un tirage intercostal et une infection.
C)-Ces premières données avaient permis de construire le modèle Goma1 basé essentiellement sur les indicateurs suivants :l’âge,le périmètre brachial, l’état de conscience et le type d’infection. Grâce au score pronostique, il était destiné à la sélection à l’admission des enfants à risque élevé de décès pour une admission en soins intensifs et à la standardisation de la mortalité en vue de l’évaluation de la qualité de prise en charge.
D)-Une intervention a été menée, en décembre 2004 portant essentiellement sur la formation et la supervision du personnel de santé œuvrant à l’HPG. Grâce à une évaluation avant-après, on a pu déterminer l’impact probable de cette intervention :la mortalité globale a diminué de 15,9% (avant l’intervention) à 4,6% (après l’intervention) et restait toujours plus basse après l’intervention et après ajustement à l’aide du modèle.
Conclusions
La mortalité pédiatrique intrahospitalière est généralement beaucoup trop élevée et c’était le cas à l’HPG.
Notre démarche après ce constat et l’évaluation de la qualité des soins donnés aux enfants sur base d’un questionnaire qualitatif a été d’intervenir sur un des points mis en exergue par cette évaluation (formation et supervision du personnel insuffisante) et d’évaluer l’impact de ce programme sur la mortalité globale.
Les résultats ont suggéré un impact positif de ce programme (mortalité globale de 15,9% avant l’intervention et de 4,6% après l’intervention).
Si de nombreuses critiques liées à la méthodologie (évaluation uniquement qualitative, étude quasi-expérimentale avant-après, intervention limitée, etc) doivent être épinglées et limitent la portée de ce travail, la démarche entreprise a cependant permis de mobiliser le personnel de santé œuvrant dans des conditions difficiles, autour d’un projet commun et améliorer ainsi la prise en charge des enfants hospitalisés à l’HPG.

This thesis explores the dimensions of the actions of consumers, governments and service providers influential in contributing to the climate of reform in the health care area in Australia and the subsequent developments. There are clearly defined consumer models of complaints-handling for the health area, ascertainable from examination of the broader context of the development of the consumer movement and consumer organisations ; and specifically drawing on the common elements from the contribution of the consumer movement in health. A consumer model for complaints-handling at the local level is proposed.

Повний текст джерелаO meu interesse em Cuidados Paliativos culminou no último ano na oportunidade de fazer dois estágios em centros de referência nacional e internacional. A Unidade de Cuidados Continuados e Paliativos recebeu-me durante um período de dois meses e os Southern Adelaide Palliative Services por um período de três meses. Estas experiências permitiram-me aplicar na prática a teoria já aprendida, desenvolvendo inúmeras competências, a salientar: controlo sintomático, abordagem psicossocial e espiritual, comunicação com doentes em fim de vida e suas famílias. Durante este período, consegui envolver-me em dois sistemas de saúde muito diferentes, com diferentes formas de cuidar, que me inspiraram para a minha prática futura. Tive ainda a oportunidade de participar num projeto de investigação em conjunto com o grupo CareSearch, com intuito de entender o papel da nova figura em cuidados paliativos – a doula de fim de vida – bem como os motivos e contextos que levaram ao seu aparecimento. Este trabalho fez-me refletir acerca da forma como cuidamos os doentes que tanto contrasta com a forma como eles desejariam ser cuidados e todas as implicações desta questão. A análise estatística está a ser efetuada, pelo que estou a aguardar poder contribuir para a publicação de um artigo acerca do trabalho que desenvolvi.

Повний текст джерелаProfessional nurses are regarded as the backbone of the health care system and quality patient care is linked to patient safety.The purpose of the study was to describe and explore the perceptions of professional nurses on impact of shortage of resources for quality patient care. The resources include health professionals, equipment and drugs. The study was conducted in Mankweng hospital which is a public hospital in the Capricorn district in Limpopo Province. Qualitative descriptive exploratory design was used which provided the researcher with in-depth information regarding phenomena under study. Data was collected from ten (10) professional nurses who have 5 to 20 years of nursing experience allocated in medical and surgical wards. Unstructured face-to-face interview was conducted using field notes and audio tape. Data was analysed following Creswell (2014) Tesch method. Five themes and eighteen subthemes emerged from data. The findings revealed that the shortage of health professionals and inadequate resources has a negative impact on provision of quality patient care.

Повний текст джерелаINTRODUCTION: Patients are increasingly being thought of as central to patient safety. A small but growing body of work suggests that patients may have a role in reporting patient safety problems within a hospital setting. This review considers this disparate body of work, aiming to establish a collective view on hospital-based patient reporting. STUDY OBJECTIVES: This review asks: (a) What can patients report? (b) In what settings can they report? (c) At what times have patients been asked to report? (d) How have patients been asked to report? METHOD: 5 databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, (Kings Fund) HMIC and PsycINFO) were searched for published literature on patient reporting of patient safety 'problems' (a number of search terms were utilised) within a hospital setting. In addition, reference lists of all included papers were checked for relevant literature. RESULTS: 13 papers were included within this review. All included papers were quality assessed using a framework for comparing both qualitative and quantitative designs, and reviewed in line with the study objectives. DISCUSSION: Patients are clearly in a position to report on patient safety, but included papers varied considerably in focus, design and analysis, with all papers lacking a theoretical underpinning. In all papers, reports were actively solicited from patients, with no evidence currently supporting spontaneous reporting. The impact of timing upon accuracy of information has yet to be established, and many vulnerable patients are not currently being included in patient reporting studies, potentially introducing bias and underestimating the scale of patient reporting. The future of patient reporting may well be as part of an 'error detection jigsaw' used alongside other methods as part of a quality improvement toolkit.
