护理在国际上被认为是毕业生和学生的高风险职业。了解事件数据可能有助于预防未来的不良事件。描述性的,回顾性审查的职业健康和安全事故的人员在澳大利亚大学护理学院进行了为期八年半的。使用现有电子系统确定事件报告的分类,并对不适合电子分析的数据进行手动分类,例如叙述性描述。总共报告了142起事件,其中135起被纳入本研究。学生报告了98起安置事件和10起校园事件。经常报告的学生事件涉及锐器,昏厥,体力处理活动和工作场所暴力。15份报告是危险通知。审查长期收集的数据提供了有用的信息模式。查明了数据方面的差距和报告制度方面的制约因素。双重报告制度可能妨碍提供全面的概览。改进数据收集方法可包括记录人口统计信息,如年份一级,为便于记录的常见报告事件提供下拉菜单,并考虑如何最好地捕捉涉及多人的事件。
Nursing is recognised internationally as a high-risk occupation for graduates and students. Developing an understanding of incident data may facilitate prevention of future adverse events. A descriptive, retrospective review of occupational health and safety incidents reported by personnel at an Australian university school of nursing was conducted, spanning a period of eight-and-a-half years. Classification of incident reports was determined using the existing electronic system with manual categorisation of data not suited to electronic analysis, such as narrative descriptions. In total, 142 incidents were reported, of which 135 were included in this study. Students reported 98 incidents on placement and 10 on campus. Frequently reported student incidents involved sharps, fainting, manual handling activities and workplace violence. Fifteen reports were hazard notifications. Reviewing data gathered over a prolonged duration provided useful patterns of information. Gaps in data and reporting system constraints were identified. Dual reporting systems may be barriers to providing an all-inclusive overview. Improving data collection methods could include recording demographic information such as year level, drop-down menus for commonly reported incidents to facilitate recording, and consideration of how best to capture events that involve multiple personnel.
