Abstract:

Objective To explore the effects of emergency equipment training and management system for new nurses based on two-dimensional bar code technology.Methods The scenario simulation video and information of nine kinds of emergency equipment were made. The application pages were generated into QR codes together with electronic check-in and my user function module. A total of 80 new nurses in the first hospital was selected as the experimental group. Two-dimensional bar code system on the basis of traditional training model was used to train the nurses in the experimental group. Another 77 new nurses in the second hospital were trained by the traditional training model. The training effects and nurses’ satisfaction were evaluated through questionnaire survey.Results The scores regarding knowledge,equipment operation,and problem solving in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group（P<0.05）. The number of adverse events related to equipment in the experimental group within 6 months was 2,while it was 9 in the control group. The number of maintenance of the equipment in the experimental group was 8,while it was 21 in the control group. The maintenance cost in the experimental group was 50,000 RMB,and it was 130,000 RMB in the control group. Nurses in the experimental group had higher satisfaction rate toward training.Conclusion The training and management system based on two-dimensional bar code helps to improve the operational skills of the new nurses on the emergency equipment,reduces the number of operation failures,decreases the maintenance cost,and reduces the adverse events. It can ensure safety and nursing quality,and nurses has high satisfaction rate towards it.
