Objectives: To solve the problems of unclear classification, unsound policies and regulations, and irregular processing procedures for hospital medical waste classification management, a new classification management innovation model was explored to improve the quality of medical waste classification management. Methods: Innovative model of new medical waste classification management PDCA cycle mode was adopt. Four phases of PDCA were implemented which is planning, implementation, inspection, and processing. Among planning, collecting data, identifying problems, analyzing causes, and specifying measures were related. Results: Before and after the implementation of the PDCA cycle model, the medical waste classification management knowledge examination pass rate increased from 75% to 100%, and the qualified rate of medical waste classification and disposal increased from 70% to 96%. Conclusions: The application of PDCA cycle mode for medical waste classification management can enhance the awareness of medical personnel on medical waste and improve the quality of medical waste classification management, which is of great value.
