Abstract:

Objective　To develop the patient safety smart warning system based on 5G internet of things technology, and
to explore its application effect in the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery nursing. Methods　The patient safety smart warning
system was constructed based on research group establishing, literature research and Delphi study, then patient safety warning
indicators were screened and modules were built. Based on 5G network, the patient safety indicators and the connected equipment involved were integrated with the system. Then the system was applied in plastic and reconstructive surgery ward after staff
training. Two months before and after the application of the system, the postoperative complications, incidence of adverse events
and discovery rate of potential complications in patients were calculated, and graded care quality was scored. Medical staff’s
application satisfaction was investigated using self-designed questionnaire. Results　After the application of the patient safety
smart warning system, the discovery rate of potential complications in patients was increased significantly (P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications and adverse events decreased with no significant difference (P>0.05). The score of graded
care quality improved from 97 to 99 after the application of the system. The overall satisfaction score of medical staff to patient
safety smart warning system was 4.59±0.49. Conclusion　Application of the patient safety smart warning system based on 5G
Internet of things technology can improve the discovery rate of potential complications in patients, enhance the predictability of 
patients’safety risks and the awareness of safety risk management of medical staff, promote the timely follow-up of clinical intervention measures, and ensure the safety of patients.
