A hospital performance improvement project to improve the quality of x-ray interpretations in the emergency department is described. To amplify the benefits of this project, a multimedia computer program containing this information was created and distributed via the mail and over the internet. Users are encouraged to copy the program disks and distribute them to others (no fees or royalties). The advantages of this method over conventional journals in print are described. Successful distribution of this program, known as Radiology Cases in Pediatric Emergency Medicine (RCPEM), and positive feedback from users, stimulated the continuation of this project, which has now released its fifth volume with two more volumes planned. RCPEM (a hospital performance improvement project) now continues to expand as the knowledge gained is disseminated over the internet to improve the quality of care rendered to children all over the world. Amplifying the benefits of other performance improvement projects can be done in a similar manner.
本文描述了一项旨在提高急诊科X线解读质量的医院绩效改进项目。为了扩大该项目的效益,创建了一个包含此信息的多媒体计算机程序,并通过邮件和互联网进行分发。鼓励用户复制程序磁盘并分发给他人(不收取费用或版税)。文中阐述了这种方法相较于传统印刷期刊的优势。该项目,即《儿科急诊医学影像学病例》(RCPEM),的成功分发以及用户的积极反馈,促使该项目得以延续,目前已发行第五卷,另有两卷正在筹备中。RCPEM(一个医院绩效改进项目)如今随着所获知识通过互联网传播以提高全球儿童护理质量而持续扩展。其他绩效改进项目的效益扩大也可采用类似方式。
