Surveys have been undertaken of the clinical dependency of surgical patients in eight United Kingdom acute general hospitals. The findings indicate that patients' needs are not always matched by appropriate levels of clinical care. In particular, it appears that a significant number of surgical patients need high-dependency care. Currently most of these patients are admitted to ITU beds, or are at risk on surgical wards.
在英国八家急性综合医院对外科手术患者的临床护理需求进行了调查。调查结果表明,患者的需求并不总是能得到相应水平的临床护理的满足。特别是,似乎有相当数量的外科手术患者需要高依赖性护理。目前,这些患者中的大多数被收治到重症监护病房,或者在外科病房有风险。
