The Effect of PDCA Circulation Management on Reducing the Incidence of Complications in Vaginal Delivery
Objective To analyze the causes of vaginal delivery complications using the PDCA(plan-do-check-action)management method,develop and implement improvement measures for the main factors,and explore the effectiveness of PDCA cycle application in reducing vaginal delivery complications,providing scientific management methods for obstetrics to reduce delivery complications.Methods A total of 2 170 medical records of vaginal delivery mothers before implementing PDCA circulation management in the First People's Hospital of Zhaoqing from January to December 2020 were collected as the control group,and 2 697 medical records of vaginal delivery mothers after implementing PDCA circulation management from January to December 2022 were collected as the experimental group.The differences in the incidence of vaginal delivery complications between the two groups before and after the implementation of PDCAcirculation management method were compared.Results The PDCA circulation management method was applied to improve the rules and regulations,strengthen supervision and feedback,and enhance training for all staff,resulting in a decrease in the incidence of vaginal delivery complications from 31.66%in 2020 to 17.35%in 2022,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The PDCA cycle management method effectively reduces the incidence of vaginal delivery complications and is a scientific management method for medical quality management.
