HOSPITAL

Hasanuddin University, Indonesia

Background:

The purposes of clinical pathways are reducing variations within

health care, more predictable cost, more standardized cares, improving

quality of care, improving the procedure costs, improving the quality of

collected information and as a counter-check especially in high cost and high

value cases.

Method:

A prospective cohort study was used to compare evaluation of

clinical pathways implementation in patients with severe preeclampsia.

Statistical analysis using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and Mann Whitney U test.

Result:

More patients with three days length of stay (10 patients or 50%)

while patients without clinical pathways implementation with three days

length of stay were (four patients or 20%). Type of test done in patients with

clinical pathways implementation was complete blood count (20 patients or

100%) and the least was cardiotocography (eight patients or 40%). The most

common drug used in patients with clinical pathways implementation was

nifedipine/perdipine (19 patients or 95%) and the least was methyldopa (two

patients or 10%)

Conclusion:

Clinical pathways implementation in patients with severe

preeclampsia may reduce length of stay in hospital, provide guidelines for

appropriate diagnostic test, but there is no difference in the effectiveness of

drug use.
