Establishment of doctor-oriented j ob evaluation factor system for general hospitals and survey analyses on its reliability and validity / 吉林大学学报(医学版)

Objective To investigate the highly-recognized job evaluation factors among the doctors from tertiary general hospitals and to establish a doctor-oriented job evaluation factor system for general hospitals followed with the reliability and validity analyses.Methods A questionnaire about the highly-recognized 23 job evaluation factors was launched among 791 doctors by the stratified sampling from six tertiary general hospitals in Beijing,and the factors were from a job evaluation model of tertiary general hospitals.Initial factor solutions were obtained by the principal components analysis of all evaluation factors and the main factors whose eigenvalues were over one were extracted as evaluation dimensions. Factor loadings were attained through Varimax and the factor whose factor loading was lower than 0.5 was eliminated.A reliability analysis by calculating Cronbachαcoefficient and a validity analysis with structural equation modeling were sequentially conducted on the job evaluation factor system.Results A doctor-oriented job evaluation factor system for general hospitals including 22 factors subject to 3 dimensions was established while the factor of job relevance was removed. The internal consistency coefficients of the dimensions were greater than 0.8 according to the calculation of Cronbachα, which showed a nice reliability. Several main indexes for evaluating the model fitting were all close to 0.9,which indicated a fair structural validity. Conclusion A doctor-oriented job evaluation factor system for general hospitals is established with fair reliability and validity,which could provide more references to the job evaluation of the doctors in tertiary general hospitals.

Medical model and perspectives for hospital development / 中华医院管理杂志

Medical model is the product of medical practice and crystallization of the essence of medicine and insights of life based on human being's fights against diseases for ages.Medical practice and medical model change fundamentally with the changing needs of human.being for health,having undergone for example from biomedical model to biopsychosocial(BPS)model.Thanks to perspectives of Epistemology and practice theory,the medical model is nourishing itself with BPS theories and methodologies for sustainable development,helping human being to better understand health and life multi-dimensionally.In such a model,individual hospitals will shift from focusing on disease care to provision of wholesome and sustained health services,while hospital systems will shift from coordination to resources reallocation and vertical integration.Thus the hospitals will gain new perspectives and broader horizon for development in the future.

Practice and insight for self-assessment in hospital accreditation / 中华医院管理杂志

Treatment of Alzheimer disease: an evidence-based review / 中西医结合学报

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this research was mainly two-fold: first, to get an understanding of current researches conducted on Alzheimer disease in China; second, to systematically evaluate and compare Alzheimer's treatment delivered by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine. METHODS: Two steps were employed in this research. They were data collection and cleaning, followed by systemic review and qualitative analysis. The data were selected from the following two databases: CNKI (http://www.cnki.net) and Wanfang Data (http://www.wanfangdata.com.cn). Inclusion criteria were: (1) Chinese literature; (2) Published between year 1994 and year 2004; (3) Using TCM as treatment and Western medicine as control; (4) Similar research purposes and methodology; (5) Subjects were diagnosed as Alzheimer disease. Descriptive analysis, homogeneity test, meta analysis, sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis were performed in the second step. RESULTS: Supposing all qualified studies were of high quality, we got the following conclusion: the advantage of TCM was losing because of the newly-developed acetylcholinesterase inhibitors came in market. Moreover, the studies conducted after year 2002 were more homogeneous in comparison with those conducted in early years. Those studies using mini-mental status examination (MMSE) as outcome measurement were also more homogeneous than non-MMSE measurement groups. Combined odds ratio in comparative studies was 1.5 fold higher than that in experimental studies. Regarding to different outcome measurement, those studies using TCM assessment profile were 2.58(4.79/1.86) fold higher than those using MMSE as outcome measurement. CONCLUSIONS: After systemic literature search, we found that only 40 out of 2,403 studies met our inclusion criteria. Moreover, those qualified studies were of low quality. Therefore, the external validity of this study would be compromised. The solution to this would be to improve study quality by strengthening study design and carefully select more homogeneous subjects in terms of syndrome differentiation, by so doing, the results of meta analysis will be more convincing and easily recognized by international society.
