Abstract:

Objective To investigate and analyze the current situation and risk factors of nursing interruptions during the process of surgical counts,and provide empirical evidence for targeted preventive measures. Methods Based on convenient sampling method,operations performed in a Class III general hospital in Shanxi Province from June 2022 to October 2022 were selected as the observation objects. The self-developed questionnaire of Nursing Interruption Events in the Counting of Surgical Items was used in data collection,and the risk factors for nursing interruptions during surgical counting sessions were analyzed. Results A total of 385 operations were eventually included,in which 244(63.4%) had nursing interruptions during the inventory of counts. Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of surgeons,surgery duration,surgeries of multi-surgical combination,emergency surgery,experience of circulating nurses,and education of scrub nurse were the independent risk factors for nursing interruptions during the inventory of counts. Conclusion The process of counting surgical items is influenced by various risk factors. Early identification and evaluation of these indicators is helpful in reducing nursing interruption events and maintain patient safety.
