Abstract
Objective: To explore the application value of QR code electronic manuals in operating theater equipment management and training.Methods: The control group adopted the traditional management mode. Training was carried out before each device was put into use in the department. A unified operation process and a paper card manual for common faults were formulated and hung next to each device. For the observation group, the electronic manuals generated by the QR code were pasted on the operating theater equipment for management and training. The management and training effect was compared between the two groups.Results: The efficiency of equipment management and training using the QR code electronic manuals was significantly higher than that of traditional training, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).Conclusion: The QR code manuals are very effective in operating theater equipment management and training. They can be read and learned in time to improve the operating theater equipment utilization rate, accuracy rate, and equipment management and training quality.
Highlights
The QR codes are information carriers and are currently widely used
Operating theaters involve a complex range of surgical equipment and instruments
The application value of QR code electronic manuals was researched by comparing the management efficiency and training effect of the survey object on the two groups of equipment
Summary
The QR codes are information carriers and are currently widely used. They have the advantages of a high recognition rate, a large amount of stored information, low cost and, simple operation [1]. Operating theaters involve a complex range of surgical equipment and instruments. With the continuous improvement of surgical technology, equipment and instruments are frequently updated. The quality management, effectiveness, and safety of operating theater equipment and instruments in use is becoming more and more important [4, 5]. With the improvement of the precision of the instruments and their more frequent replacement, nurses of the operating theater need to constantly update their relevant knowledge, which brings great challenges [6]
