ABSTRACT
Introduction: Quality in endoscopy is defined as the necessary characteristics of a service that meet patient’s needs and expectations. Effective colonoscopy includes a thorough and careful examination of the mucosa, considering the established quality protocol for colonoscopy, according to ASGE guidelines. Quality indicators have been determined to achieve better results, considering the degree of patient satisfaction.
Objective: To evaluate the quality of the colonoscopy and the degree of patient satisfaction at the Hospital Juárez de México from January to December 2015.
Material and methods: Evaluation of the colonoscopy procedure, analysis of the clinical file, telephone survey application (GHAA-9mc test validated by the ASGE).
Results: 432 colonoscopy procedures were performed from January to December 2015, 362 were included, 59% were women (n = 214) and 41% were men (n = 148). The age range was 19 to 86 years, mean age 45.27 years (SD ± 16.963) and the mode was 53 years. Quality indicators (ASGE 2015) were met: pre-procedure 87.6%, trans-procedure 91.6%, post-procedure 83.33%. In 96% of cases, it was possible to cannulate ileum, a Boston scale of between 7 and 9 points in 95% of patients. Regarding user satisfaction, responded from excellent, very good and good in 90% of the study population (questionnaire validated in Spanish GHAA-9MC).
Conclusions: According to the indicators of quality, our hospital is in the average of the recommended ranges, however there were some indicators in which the goal was not met. The patients at the end of the surveys gave a total rating in which they gives us a vision of the strengths and weaknesses of our endoscopy service, so it is important to consider the established guidelines and to evaluate the parameters considered as international standards.
