Effect analysis of quality control circle in the follow-up rate of upper limb functional exercise in elderly patients after permanent pacemaker implantation

Abstract

Objective To explore the application and effects of quality control circle activities on the compliance rate of upper limb functional exercise in elderly patients after permanent pacemaker implantation. Methods The application of quality control circle was used to analyze the causes, so as to find out the real cause of low compliance of upper limb functional exercise in permanent pacemaker implantation elderly patient including lack of accessary for upper limp training excise, the lake of education materials pacemaker for upper limb functional training after implantation without image, the lack of upper limb function exercise knowledge after pacemaker implantation in nurses, fear of pacemaker shift and bleeding, 5 aspects of team coaching patients with upper limb functional exercise, according to it due to the development of effective countermeasures which organized the implementation of standardized management. Results After the implementation of quality control circle activities, the follow-up rate of upper limb functional exercise in elderly patients increased from 57.89% to 100.00% before permanent pacemaker implantation, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05) . The goal of the event rate increased to 151%, and progress rate of 72.74%. Conclusions The application of quality control circle can improve follow-up rate in permanent pacemaker implantation in elderly patients after upper limb functional exercise, the upper limb function, and the quality of life of patients, as well as the members of quality control techniques, professional knowledge, communication and coordination, team spirit, and ability to explore problems were improved.
