문제: 본원의 외래 상황은 진료의가 짧은 시간 내에 많은 환자를 진료해야 하고, 진료 환자 모두에게 충분히 만족하도록 설명해주는 것은 매우 어려운 실정이었다. 2007년의 의료기관 본 평가에 앞서 병원 자체 평가 결과 외래환자의 설명 만족도는 57점으로 저조하였다. 목적: "이해하기 쉽게 설명하는 서울대학교 병원" 이라는 슬로건 하에 설명간호사 제도를 운영하기 시작하여, 설명간호사실 운영 활성화를 통한 외래 환자 만족도를 향상시키고자 한다. 의료기관: 서울시 종로구에 소재한 대학병원 질 향상 활동: 설명간호사실 방문율 증가 및 one-stop service care을 실현할 수 있는 방안을 모색하였고, 검사 시행 이유, 귀가 후 주의사항 검사 결과, 검사일정 외래 진료 안내 브로셔 및 표준화된 교육 자료를 개발하였다. 또한 설명간호사의 역할 및 업무의 확립을 위한 업무기술서를 개발 및 설명간호사실 환경을 개선하였다. 개선효과: 설명간호사실의 방문율이 내과는 2배, 신경과는 3배 정도 증가하였다. 표준화된 교육 자료 개발로 설명 요구도를 충족시켰고, '환자의 알 권리'와 '설명을 들을 권리'를 보장하였다. 업무기술서 개발로 설명간호사의 업무 및 역할을 확립하였으며 설명간호사실의 환경 개선으로 개인 신상 비밀을 보호받을 권리를 보장하였다. 외래 설명만족도가 2007년 57점에서 2008년 74점으로 향상되었다. 설명간호사실 자체 설문조사에서도 97%가 만족한다고 답하였고, 100% 모두 재방문 의사를 보였다. one-stop service care를 제공함으로써 외래가 복잡하다는 부정적인 이미지를 긍정적인 이미지로 변화시켰다.

문제: 억제대 적용에 대한 구체적 적용 지침 없이 의례적으로 억제대를 사용함으로 인해 환자들의 신체적 또는 정신적 안전을 위협할 수 있다. 목적: 완전 진정 상태 이거나 근력이 약하여 발관 능력이 없는 환자에 대한 예방적 적용, 바빠서 환자를 볼 수 없는 경우, 간호사 본인의 판단이 없이 타인의 요구에 따르는 등의 불필요한 억제대 적용이 증가하는 원인을 파악하여 중환자실의 특수성에 맞는 억제대 적용 및 제거 지침을 마련하고자한다. 의료기관: 인천광역시에 소재한 의과대학 소속병원의 집중치료실 질 향상 활동: 불필요한 억제대 적용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 선정하여 개선활동 수행. 개선효과: 억제대 적용에 대한 중환자실 간호사에게 미치는 영향을 보면 태도 정도 p=0.09(p<0.1), 올바른 수행 능력은 p=0.005(p<0.05)로 통계적으로 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 지식 정도 p=0.172(p<0.05) 통계적으로 유의 하지는 않지만 모든 항목이 개선 활동 전 에 비해 2,3차 개선 활동 후에 향상 한 것으로 나타났다. 개선 활동 전에 8.1%였던 간호 기록, 0.7%였던 간호 중재, 0%였던 의사 처방율이 3차 개선 활동 후 3가지 모두 100% 달성되었다. 이는 억제대 적용율 감소 및 부적절한 억제대 적용율은 유의하게 감소 하였다. 교훈: 중환자실 간호사의 억제대 적용에 대한 태도, 지식, 올바른 간호 수행 능력은 지속적으로 재평가 되어지고, 교육내용은 좀 더 나은 간호 제공을 위하여 개발되어져야 할 것이다. 억제대 적용 기준과 제거 기준을 Check List 하여 객관성의 유지를 위한 개선 활동은 계속적으로 Feedback 되어야 할 것이다.
