Abstract:Objective：To investigate the inclusion criteria of acute cholecystitis clinical path by combining DRGs classification methods，and provide scientific reference for clinical path management in modern hospitals. Methods：Patients with acute cholecystitis in a certain hospital from January 1，2020 to December 31，2020 were selected. The age，gender，hospitalization day，total cost and completion of clinical pathways were extracted from the hospital's home page information system. The certainDRGs platform and SPSS software were used to analyze. Results：The clinical path completion rate of patients with acute cholecystitis in 2020 was 85.36%. The highest clinical path completion rate was 86.21% in the non-surgical patients and 95.24% in the surgical patients by DRGs. The average hospitalization days，average total cost，and CMI were different between the non-surgical patients and the surgical patients，and the differences were statistically significant（P < 0.05）. Conclusion：DRGs grouping and clinical pathways complement each other，and formulating diverse clinical pathways based on the results of DRGs grouping can significantly improve the completion rate of clinical pathways and promote the standardization and rationalization of hospital diagnosis and treatment processes.
