Theemergencydepartmentisoneofthemostimportantdepartmentsofeducationaland medical centers that despite the crowds of patients must provide immediate and vital servicesin the shortest possible time with high efficiency to different patients. Therefore, it is necessaryto use the standard method in transmitting this information between emergency medicine assis-tants.
This research is a quasi-experimental interventional study that was conductedand completed by survey-analytical method during the years (1398-99) during three phases. Inthe first phase, information on the current status of the patient delivery process was collectedamong emergency medicine assistants. In the second phase, a workshop based on the I-PASSmethod was held. In the final phase, the process of patient delivery by I-PASS method was practi-cally implemented and the obtained information was collected through a researcher-made ques-tionnaire and analyzed using statistical methods.
First, the average and qualitative valueof all research variables are high and very high. Second, there is a significant relationship be-tween I-PASS indicators and patient delivery process improvement indicators. In other words,there is a direct relationship between all I-PASS indicators and all indicators of patient deliveryprocess improvement between emergency medical assistants Inter-Shift Handoffs. Third, themain purpose of the research has been met. Therefore, this study has an innovative and new as-pect for the effectiveness of the I-PASS system.
The use of I-PASS system has a highimpact on improving the patient delivery process between emergency medicine assistants Inter-Shift Handoffs in Imam Khomeini Educational and Medical Center of Mazandaran University ofMedical Sciences. As this effect is in most cases, above 70%.
