A DeepSeek-powered locally deployed closed-loop system for enhancing quality control in electronic nursing documentation: development and clinical validation
Open accessAbstract
Objectives: To develop a locally deployed DeepSeek-powered closed-loop system for electronic nursing documentation quality control (QC) and evaluate its clinical efficacy through a multidimensional validation framework. Materials and Methods: We implemented a three-dimensional (3D) QC framework (real-time, final, and vertical QC). A retrospective analysis of 556 electronic nursing records was conducted to evaluate pre- and postimplementation outcomes, with documentation accuracy and audit efficiency assessed via blinded nurse evaluations. Results: After implementation, omission rates decreased from 7.19% to 1.79%, the prevalence of logical inconsistencies decreased from 9.35% to 0.72%, and the prevalence of timeliness errors decreased from 8.63% to 0%. The QC time per record decreased by 3.2-fold. Nurse satisfaction was evaluated using the Clinical Nursing Information System Effectiveness Evaluation Scale (Zhao Y, Gu Y, Zhang X, et al. Developed the clinical nursing information system effectiveness evaluation scale based on the new D&M model and conducted reliability and validity evaluation. Chin J Prae Nurs. 2020;36:544-550. https://doi.org/10.3760/cma.j.issn.1672-7088.2020.07.013), yielding a total score of 102.73 ± 3.25 out of a maximum 115 points. Discussion: This study demonstrates that the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered closed-loop QC system significantly enhances documentation accuracy and workflow efficiency while ensuring data security. The 3D framework (real-time, final, and vertical QC) represents a paradigm shift from reactive to proactive quality governance in nursing practice. High nurse satisfaction (102.73/115) confirms clinical viability, offering a scalable model for intelligent health-care quality ecosystems. Future work should explore federated learning for multicenter deployment and regulatory frameworks for clinical AI. Conclusion: DeepSeek demonstrated robust efficacy in enhancing QC accuracy and workflow efficiency, with localized deployment ensuring data security. This system redefines nursing documentation management, heralding an era of “intelligent negative feedback” in health-care quality ecosystems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
