BACKGROUND Patient transfers involve the physical movement of patients, along with the transfer of their care-related information, responsibility, and control between sending and receiving clinicians. Patient transfers between critical care units are complex and vulnerable to bottlenecks. OBJECTIVE To examine the patient transfer process from emergency department (ED) to medical intensive care unit (MICU). MATERIALS AND METHOD A qualitative study on transfers from ED to MICU was conducted at two academic hospitals. Using a process-based methodological approach supported by shadowing of patient transfers and clinician interviews, we examined the process-based similarities and differences in barriers and strategies used across hospitals. RESULTS Phases underlying ED-MICU transfer process included: pre-transfer phase involving ED care coordination and MICU transfer decision-making; transfer phase involving ED-MICU resident handoff, and post-transfer phase involving MICU care planning and management. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Transfer of information, responsibility and control between sending and receiving clinicians is key to effective management of interdependencies between the pre-transfer, transfer and post-transfer phases underlying the patient transfer process. Evidence-based strategies to address challenges related to transfer of information, responsibility and control include the use of videophones and communication checklists, the allocation of a crash bed, engagement of sending, receiving and consulting teams in the physical movement of patients, and in-hospital transfer protocols.

将患者从急诊科转移到重症监护病房:追查障碍和根源。

背景技术患者的转移涉及患者的身体运动,以及与他们的护理有关的信息,责任以及在发送和接收临床医生之间的控制的转移。重症监护病房之间的患者转移非常复杂,容易出现瓶颈。目的研究从急诊科(ED)到重症监护病房(MICU)的患者转移过程。材料与方法在两家学术医院进行了从ED到MICU转移的定性研究。我们采用基于过程的方法论方法,并在患者转诊和临床医生访谈的阴影下进行了支持,我们研究了基于过程的异同以及医院间使用的障碍和策略的差异。结果ED-MICU传输过程的基本阶段包括:转移前阶段,包括急诊护理协调和MICU转移决策;转移阶段涉及ED-MICU居民转移,转移后阶段涉及MICU护理计划和管理。讨论和结论在发送和接收临床医生之间传递信息,责任和控制是有效管理患者转移过程基础的转移前,转移和转移后阶段之间相互依赖性的关键。应对与信息传递,责任和控制相关的挑战的基于证据的策略包括使用可视电话和通讯清单,分配急救床,派遣接收和咨询团队参与患者的身体活动,以及医院转移协议。转移阶段涉及ED-MICU居民转移,转移后阶段涉及MICU护理计划和管理。讨论和结论在发送和接收临床医生之间传递信息,责任和控制是有效管理患者转移过程基础的转移前,转移和转移后阶段之间相互依赖性的关键。应对与信息传递,责任和控制相关的挑战的基于证据的策略包括使用可视电话和通讯清单,分配急救床,派遣接收和咨询团队参与患者的身体活动,以及医院转移协议。转移阶段涉及ED-MICU居民转移,转移后阶段涉及MICU护理计划和管理。讨论和结论在发送和接收临床医生之间传递信息,责任和控制是有效管理患者转移过程基础的转移前,转移和转移后阶段之间相互依赖性的关键。应对与信息传递,责任和控制相关的挑战的基于证据的策略包括使用可视电话和通讯清单,分配急救床,派遣接收和咨询团队参与患者的身体活动,以及医院转移协议。讨论和结论在发送和接收临床医生之间传递信息,责任和控制是有效管理患者转移过程基础的转移前,转移和转移后阶段之间相互依赖性的关键。应对与信息传递,责任和控制相关的挑战的基于证据的策略包括使用可视电话和通讯清单,分配急救床,派遣接收和咨询团队参与患者的身体活动,以及医院转移协议。讨论和结论在发送和接收临床医生之间传递信息,责任和控制是有效管理患者转移过程基础的转移前,转移和转移后阶段之间相互依赖性的关键。应对与信息传递,责任和控制相关的挑战的基于证据的策略包括使用可视电话和通讯清单,分配急救床,派遣接收和咨询团队参与患者的身体活动,以及医院转移协议。
