The medical wristband used in psychiatry department is higher than that used in ordinary hospitals, because the patients in psychiatry department have more uncontrollable factors, the following dingba small edition will explain to you what conditions the medical wristband used in psychiatry department must have.
In psychiatric department, the frequency of patients' identification belt is higher than that in general department. Because there are too many uncontrollable things in psychiatric department, some psychiatric patients may have big mood fluctuation, unable to think normally, hallucination and so on. Therefore, it is more difficult to use the patient identification belt in the nursing process. What are the requirements of a suitable medical wrist strap for use in psychiatric department? Let's take a look.
1. Waterproof, alcohol proof and scratch proof wrist strap are the primary conditions.
Reason: it is common for wristbands to contact water and alcohol during use, which is also a very basic standard requirement for medical wristbands. Anti scratch is particularly important for psychiatric departments. According to the hospital data of using medical wristbands in the past, many mental patients will have strong interest in the identification belt on their hands, scraping the patient information on the wristbands with fingernails, or even tearing the wristbands artificially.
2. The importance of wristband throughout the hospitalization cycle
Cause: suppose a long-term inpatient wore a medical wristband 30 days later, the font was discolored and the wristband turned yellow. When the wristband is not clear but the patient needs to check the doctor-patient information in case of emergency, it can not be checked. This kind of error causes great loss to the hospital and the patient.
3. Choose a soft wristband material
Reason: because the medical wristband is no longer a medical equipment project, some hospitals choose wristbands at a low price, and pay a penny for each item. As a result, the wristband scratches the patients in the use process, which makes the hospital lose its reputation. Therefore, when choosing to purchase wristbands, you must choose a large brand to ask for samples, and then choose the wristbands with a clear understanding of the material and softness.
4. Wrist strap is waterproof but not high temperature resistant
Cause: the elderly or special patients (not sensitive to high temperature and expression barrier) in the group using medical wrist strap wear wrist strap when bathing or washing hands. The wrist strap will turn black after contacting the water temperature higher than 60 ℃. Although the sensory experience will get worse, the burn can be avoided for the sick.
5. The QR code on the wrist strap must be able to scan
Reason: now most hospitals have implemented the hospital information system, and the two-dimensional code on the wristband can display the patient information through PDA scanning. Greatly improve the efficiency of nursing, patients' privacy can also be protected. Now hospital informatization is developing rapidly, and every hospital will be connected to his system in the future. Therefore, whether the two-dimensional code on the wristband can scan normally has become a matter to be considered.
