The objective of this study was to measure the relationship between emergency medicine (EM) specialty training and quality measures in the emergency department (ED). Data were gathered from the 2003-2004 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey. The outcome was proportion of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), pneumonia (PNA), and long-bone fracture (LBF) who received recommended therapy. These measures were analyzed with respect to EM residency completion. Compared with EDs with more than 80% EM-trained physicians, EDs with fewer than 80% EM-trained physicians had similar rates of aspirin (43% vs 42%) and β-blocker (26% vs 19%) use for AMI, appropriate antibiotics (78% vs 83%) and pulse oximetry (51% vs 55%) for PNA, and analgesia (85% vs 79%) for LBF. Additionally, a composite end point and an adjusted model showed no statistical difference across these measures. The proportion of residency-trained EM physicians did not affect the use of recommended treatment for AMI, PNA, and LBF.
本研究的目的是衡量急诊医学(EM)专科培训与急诊科(ED)质量指标之间的关系。数据收集自2003 - 2004年国家医院门诊医疗调查。结果指标是急性心肌梗死(AMI)、肺炎(PNA)和长骨骨折(LBF)患者接受推荐治疗的比例。这些指标根据急诊医学住院医师培训完成情况进行分析。与急诊医学培训医师比例超过80%的急诊科相比,急诊医学培训医师比例低于80%的急诊科在以下方面的使用率相似:AMI患者使用阿司匹林(43%对42%)和β受体阻滞剂(26%对19%);PNA患者使用适当抗生素(78%对83%)和脉搏血氧饱和度测定(51%对55%);LBF患者使用镇痛剂(85%对79%)。此外,综合终点和调整模型显示这些指标之间无统计学差异。接受住院医师培训的急诊医学医师比例不影响AMI、PNA和LBF推荐治疗的使用。
