Exploration and practice of oxygen supply management in designated hospitals under COVID-19 epidemic situation / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

In the COVID-19 outbreak, several general hospitals in Wuhan were transferred to designated hospitals. However, most of the designated hospitals had suffered from insufficient oxygen supply in different degrees. Taking a designated hospital as an example, this paper summarized the emergency management system of oxygen supply from the aspects of engineering transformation, process formulation and safety management through the PDCA cycle theory, discussed the management experience of oxygen supply under the epidemic situation, and explored the management mode of emergency normalization from the perspective of peacetime and wartime integration. The purpose was to provide reference for the management of medical oxygen supply in public health emergencies and normal operation.
