Application of Continuous Quality Improvement in Cleaning and Disinfection of Da Vinci Robotic Surgical Instruments in the Disinfection Supply Center
Objective:To explore the application effect of continuous quality improvement in the cleaning and disinfection of Da Vinci robotic surgical instruments in the disinfection and supply center.Methods:680 Da Vinci robotic surgical instruments cleaned and disinfected in the disinfection supply room of our hospital from April 2021 to August 2022 were selected and divided into control group and observation group by random number method,with 340 pieces each.The control group received conventional instrument cleaning and disinfection,and the observation group received continuous quality improvement for cleaning and disinfection.The qualification rate of cleaning and disinfection of surgical instruments,cleanliness of surgical instruments cleaning and disinfection quality score of surgical instruments.Results:The qualified rate of cleaning and disinfection of Da Vinci robotic surgical instruments in the observation group was 99.41%,which was higher than 84.12%in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);The observation group had higher scores in terms of lumen cleanliness,shaft tooth pattern cleanliness,and appearance cleanliness compared to the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);The quality score of surgical instrument cleaning and disinfection in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);The bacterial detection rate of 0.59%in the observation group was lower than that of 15.88%in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:The introduction of continuous quality improvement mode in the cleaning and disinfection process of Da Vinci robotic surgical instruments in the disinfection supply center can improve the qualification rate and cleanliness of surgical instruments cleaning and disinfection,ensure the quality of instruments cleaning and disinfection.
