Abstract

Objective To explore the clinical effectiveness of bedside handover sheet and verbal handover note in hepatobiliary surgery. Methods A comparative study was conducted between the bedside handover sheet designed for patients in department of hepatobiliary surgery and verbal handover note. N-A handovers from January to June in 2017 in the Department of First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University were included into the controlled group and N-A handovers from July to December were into the observation group. Handover time, unclear handovers, handover omission and adverse events in the two groups were observed and recorded. Results N-A handover duration in the observation group was 28.1±3.57s and no unclear handover was observed. The occurrence of handover omission and adverse events in the observation group was much lower than that of the controlled group (P<0.05) but nurse satisfaction was much higher. Conclusions Handover sheet of hepatobiliary surgery is of much more advantages than verbal handover note thus are worth of being generalized.
