Managing post-operative surgical patients can be complex, with many patients at risk of complications and mortality. We piloted a model for co-management of high risk surgical patients: the post-operative surveillance team (POST). We conducted a survey to test the proposition that POST would be popular with nurses and junior doctors. We conducted a questionnaire survey of nurses and doctors involved with the POST programme. Fifty-three nurses and 10 doctors responded to the survey: 60% response rate. Of 63 respondents: 62 (98%; 95% CI: 92-100%) agreed that POST was valuable, 61 (97%; 95% CI: 89-99%) agreed that POST should continue, and 61 (97%; 95% CI: 89-99%) agreed that they enjoyed working with POST. In open ended responses 39% commented that POST provided supervision, mentoring, education, or collaboration. We conclude that POST was popular with surgical ward nurses and doctors. This popularity is one factor supporting a permanent service.
管理术后外科患者可能很复杂,许多患者有发生并发症和死亡的风险。我们试点了一种高危外科患者联合管理模式:术后监测团队(POST)。我们进行了一项调查,以检验POST会受到护士和初级医生欢迎这一命题。我们对参与POST项目的护士和医生进行了问卷调查。53名护士和10名医生回复了调查,回复率为60%。在63名受访者中,62人(98%;95%置信区间:92 - 100%)认为POST很有价值,61人(97%;95%置信区间:89 - 99%)认为POST应继续,61人(97%;95%置信区间:89 - 99%)表示喜欢与POST合作。在开放式回答中,39%的人表示POST提供了监督、指导、教育或协作。我们得出结论,POST受到外科病房护士和医生的欢迎。这种受欢迎程度是支持设立永久性服务的一个因素。
