system and a team that tries to find lost medical record charts by undergoing room-to-room
searching. This is the best intervention because, it has high political acceptance, takes shorter
time and the expense incurred for medical record hand over form is low as compare to the
other strategies.
Result: After implementing the selected strategy, the percentage of medical record chart loss
was 17(5.9%) in pre and 9 (3.13%) in the post intervention and the usage of medical record chart
handover form was 0% in pre and 100% in the post intervention.
Conclusion: Sustainable usage of well developed handover form during the withdrawal of
medical record chart from the card room and room-to-room searching of medical record chart
