INTRODUCTION: Biological Events affect large populations depending on transmission potential and propagation. A recent example of a biological event spreading globally is the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had severe effects on the economy, society, and even politics,in addition to its broad occurrence and fatalities. The aim of this scoping review was to look into patient flow management techniques and approaches used globally in biological incidents. METHODS: The current investigation was conducted based on PRISMA-ScR: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. All articles released until March 31, 2023, about research question were examined, regardless of the year of publication. The authors searched in databases including Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Google scholar search engine, Grey Literature and did hand searching. Papers with lack of the required information and all non-English language publications including those with only English abstracts were excluded. Data extraction checklist has been developed Based on the consensus of authors.the content of the papers based on data extraction, analyzed using content analysis. RESULTS: A total of 19,231 articles were retrieved in this study and after screening, 36 articles were eventually entered for final analysis. Eighty-four subcategories were identified,To facilitate more precise analysis and understanding, factors were categorised into seven categories: patient flow simulation models, risk communication management, integrated ICT system establishment, collaborative interdisciplinary and intersectoral approach, systematic patient management, promotion of health information technology models, modification of triage strategies, and optimal resource and capacity management. CONCLUSION: Patient flow management during biological Events plays a crucial role in maintaining the performance of the healthcare system. When public health-threatening biological incidents occur, due to the high number of patients, it is essential to implement a holistic,and integrated approach from rapid identification to treatment and discharge of patients.
简介:生物事件会根据传播潜力和传播范围影响大量人群。最近在全球范围内传播的生物事件的一个例子是 COVID-19 大流行,它除了广泛发生和致命性之外,还对经济、社会甚至政治产生了严重影响。本范围审查的目的是研究全球范围内在生物事件中使用的患者流程管理技术和方法。
方法:本研究基于 PRISMA-ScR 进行:系统评价和荟萃分析扩展的首选报告项目用于范围审查。无论发布年份如何,都检查了截至 2023 年 3 月 31 日发布的所有关于研究问题的文章。作者在 Scopus、Web of Science、PubMed、Google scholar 搜索引擎、灰色文献中进行了搜索,并进行了手工搜索。排除了缺乏所需信息的论文和所有非英语语言出版物,包括只有英文摘要的出版物。根据作者的共识,开发了数据提取清单。基于数据提取的内容,使用内容分析对论文进行分析。
结果:本研究共检索到 19231 篇文章,经过筛选,最终有 36 篇文章进入最终分析。确定了 84 个子类别,为了更精确的分析和理解,将因素分为七个类别:患者流量模拟模型、风险沟通管理、综合 ICT 系统建立、协作跨学科和跨部门方法、系统患者管理、促进健康信息技术模型、分诊策略修改和最佳资源和能力管理。
结论:生物事件期间的患者流程管理对于维持医疗系统的绩效至关重要。当发生威胁公共健康的生物事件时,由于患者数量众多,必须从快速识别到治疗和患者出院,实施整体和综合的方法。
