摘要

Purpose

Our study aim was to understand the (human and organizational) factors influencing fall risk among people with hematological malignancies using the Reason model as a framework, providing insights that can inform the development of safe and effective fall management strategies.

Methods

Purposive sampling was employed to conduct semi-structured interviews with 13 people with hematological malignancies and 12 nurses from the hematology department of a tertiary grade A hospital in Guangzhou from December 2023 to February 2024. The topic analysis method was utilized to analyze the interview data.

Results

Factors influencing fall risk among people with hematological malignancies were categorized into four themes: (1) precondition of unsafe arts (lack of work experience in junior nurses, poor patient compliance, adverse drug reactions, inadequate ward facilities); (2) unsafe supervision (inadequate inspection management, inadequate accompanying capacity); (3) unsafe arts (variability in subjective assessment, lack of bidirectional education); and (4) organizational influences (limited nursing human resources, lack of organizational process management models).

Conclusion

The specific fall risk factors among people with hematological malignancies, as summarized based on the Reason model framework, provide a theoretical basis and direction for the construction of specialized fall risk assessment tools, aiming to improve the quality of fall management for inpatients and reduce the incidence of falls.
