ABSTRACT

In August 2nd Kunshan factory aluminum dust explosion accident 2014, 35 severe mass burn patients were admitted to our hospital, including 18 men and 17 women, aged 21 to 50 (38±9) years. Their severe injuries caused much difficulty to the treatment. In the early period of treatment, a series of measures of nursing human resource management were implemented, such as carrying out training program for non-burn speciality nurses of different levels and origin, grouping and task-dividing, organizing work schedule and assigning in a unified way, and establishing monitoring team of speciality quality. Except for 2 cases of deaths in the early period, the other 33 patients were treated and nursed timely and effectively in the early period. The rescue rate arrived at 94.3% (33/35) on the 17th day post burn. In this period, no such nursing adverse event and complication occurred as bed-dropping, unplanned extubation, coagulation in veins of lower limb, catheter-related infection, or cross infection.
