Analysis of quality control indexes of clinical blood transfusion in Hubei province from 2018 to 2020 / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the quality management strategy of clinical blood utilization by analyzing the quality control indexes of clinical blood transfusion in Hubei province from 2018 to 2020.Methods:The quality control indexes of clinical blood utilization in 244 secondary or above hospitals in Hubei province from 2018 to 2020 were investigated, including the number of professional and technical personnel per thousand units of blood transfusion, the internal quality control rate of blood transfusion compatibility test, the participation rate of external quality evaluation in blood transfusion compatibility test, the per capita blood consumption of discharged patients, and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion for patients undergoing surgery, and the differences of each index were compared and analyzed.Results:The indexes in Hubei province showed an increasing trend from 2018 to 2020, but there was no significant difference( P>0.05). The distribution of each index in Hubei province was unbalanced( P<0.05). The average blood consumption of discharged patients(0.13±0.14 U), the internal quality control rate of blood transfusion compatibility test(84.92%), the participation rate of external quality evaluation of blood transfusion compatibility test(93.65%) and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion(55.56%) in the tertiary hospitals were significantly higher than those in the secondary hospitals(0.09±0.10 U, 43.22%, 55.08%, 29.66%), while the number of professional and technical personnel of blood transfusion in thousand units(1.34±1.43) in the tertiary hospitals was significantly lower than that in secondary hospitals(2.41±2.39)( P<0.05). The average blood consumption of discharged patients(0.12±0.11 U), the participation rate of external quality evaluation of blood transfusion compatibility(82.18%) and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion(62.64%) in general hospitals were significantly higher than those in specialized hospitals(0.08±0.13 U, 68.57%, 27.14%), while the number of professional and technical personnel in thousand units of blood transfusion(1.44±1.60) was significantly lower than that in specialized hospitals(2.88±2.53)( P<0.05). The internal quality control rate(73.73%), the participation rate of external quality evaluation(87.10%) and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion(52.07%) in public hospitals were significantly higher than those in private hospitals(29.63%, 51.85%, 25.93%), however, the number of professional and technical personnel in blood transfusion(1.70±1.98) was lower than that in private hospitals(3.95±3.21)( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall quality of clinical blood utilization in Hubei has been steadily increasing. However, the quality of clinical blood was not balanced among different areas. The overall clinical blood utilization quality of tertiary hospitals was significantly higher than the secondary hospitals, the general hospitals was significantly higher than the specialized hospitals, and the public hospitals was significantly higher than the private hospitals. The professional and technical personnel of blood transfusion in tertiary, general and public hospitals need to be strengthened.
