How to improve the accuracy of medical records
Medical records are an important basis for doctors to judge the condition and formulate treatment plans. In Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department, the accuracy of medical records is crucial to ensure the treatment quality of patients. However, due to various reasons, the accuracy of medical records is not always guaranteed. Therefore, it is very important to improve the accuracy of medical records. The following discusses how to improve the accuracy of rechecked medical records from four aspects: integrity, standardization, timeliness and traceability.
Integrity
A complete reexamination medical record can provide all the information needed by doctors and help to accurately judge the changes of patients' conditions. In order to improve the integrity of the rechecked medical record, first of all, ensure that the patient's medical record contains all the information of the first medical record, including medical history, physical examination, diagnosis and treatment plan. Secondly, doctors should carefully review and record the results of various examinations and treatments of patients, including ophthalmic examinations, laboratory examinations and surgical records. In addition, doctors should also timely record the patient's condition changes and treatment effects, so as to better guide follow-up treatment.
Improving the integrity of reexamination medical records requires not only the efforts of doctors, but also the active cooperation of patients. The patient should provide accurate and detailed medical history information at each visit, and inform the doctor of the change of condition and treatment effect in a timely manner. In addition, the hospital can also establish a sound information collection and sorting system to ensure that the information of the rechecked medical records will not be missed or lost.
Normative
Standardized medical records can improve doctors' accurate understanding of patients' conditions. In order to improve the normalization of reexamination of medical records, hospitals should establish scientific, reasonable and standardized medical record formats and norms. When filling in the recheck medical record, the doctor should record all information in the prescribed format to avoid missing, wrong or confusion. In addition, the hospital should also strengthen the training and guidance of doctors, and improve the doctors' attention and understanding of the standardized filling of medical records.
Patients can also play the role of standardizing medical records when they visit. Patients should provide accurate and detailed medical history information and cooperate with doctors to complete various examinations and treatments. The patient can ask the doctor questions to understand his condition and treatment plan, and inform the doctor of the changes in his condition in a timely manner.
timeliness
Timely review of medical records can reflect the latest condition and treatment effect of patients, and help doctors make correct judgments and decisions. In order to improve the timeliness of reexamination of medical records, doctors should timely record the patient's condition changes and treatment effects. After the doctor completes the reexamination, the medical record shall be updated in time to ensure that the information in the medical record is up-to-date and accurate. Doctors should also pay attention to using accurate descriptive words and terms when filling in medical records, so as to better convey the condition.
The patient can also improve the timeliness of the medical record when rechecking. Patients should see doctors on time and cooperate with doctors to complete various examinations and treatments. Patients should be reviewed regularly according to the doctor's requirements, so as to know their condition and treatment effect in time, and inform the doctor of any changes in their condition.
Traceability
Traceable review medical records can provide doctors with the ability to view and analyze the history of patients' condition changes, which is helpful to develop more accurate treatment plans. In order to improve the traceability of rechecked medical records, the hospital should establish a sound electronic medical record system to ensure that the information of rechecked medical records can be kept for a long time, viewed and analyzed at any time. When filling in the medical record, the doctor should note the patient's condition changes and treatment effects, and update the medical record in time.
Patients can also keep their own copies of medical records for reference to other doctors to help doctors better understand their own conditions and treatment experience. Patients can also ask doctors for copies of their medical records for future review or medical treatment.
