Abstract

As in whole other countries, almost half the resources allocated for the health sector are used in hospitals in Turkey as well. Therefore, it is inevitable that utilization review studies, evaluating the appro priateness of health services rendered to inpatients by the internationally proved medical criteria, should be put into pracice to secure the efficient and effective utilization of hospital resources. With the help of these studies, it will be possible that inappropriate use and reasons are determined and necessary precautions for efficiency and productivity are taken. The aim of this study is to determine the factors which cause inappropriate admissions and days of stay in nine adult surgical clinics in Gülhane Military Medical Academy Trainning Hospital. Delphi Method was used in defining these factors. It was concluded that the most important factor which causes the inappropriate admissions and days of stay was that the soldiers outside Ankara must be hospitalized in order to be treated.

Özet

Tüm ülkelerde olduğu gibi ülkemizde de, sağlık sektörüne ayrılan kaynakların yaklaşık yarısı hastanelerde kullanılmaktadır. Bu yüzden, hastanelere ayrılan kaynakların verimli ve etkili bir biçimde kullanıldığından emin olmak için; verilen hizmetlerin uluslar arası kabul görmüş kriterlere göre uygunluk yönünden değerlendirildiği kullanım inceleme çalışmalarına yer verilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmalarla varsa, gereksiz kullanım düzeyi ve buna neden olan faktörler belirlenerek verimliliğin sağlanması yönünde gerekli önlemler alınabilecektir. Bu çalışmada, Gülhane Askeri Tıp Akademisi Eğitim Hastanesi dokuz yetişkin cerrahi kliniğinde gereksiz yatışa ve kalışa neden olan faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Faktörlerin belirlenmesinde Delphi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Gereksiz hasta yatış ve kalışına neden olan en önemli faktörün "garnizon dışından şevkli gelen askerlerin mutlaka hastaneye yatırılması zorunluluğu" olduğu bulunmuştur.
