The general management conducted in 2015 were selected as a control group, while the three-level management model adopted in 2016 was investigated as an observation group. Then the nursing quality aspects such as preoperative material preparation, skilled procedure coordination, timely passing of instrument, professional knowledge and aseptic processing as well as the satisfaction among doctors, patients and instrament respair rate, damage rate and loss rate in OR were compared between the two groups. Results After the three-level management model was adopted, patients, doctors showed higher satisfaction in their self-evaluation than before (P<0.05) . Instrument respair rate, damage rate and loss rate were lower than before the implementation (P<0.05) . Conclusions The three-level management model, when applied in OR management, can improve the nursing quality and motivate OR nurses, thus accelerating the cultivation of OR nursing staff and specialized construction.
