ABSTRACT
Objective:To understand the changes in the practice environment from the perspective of doctors in 136 tertiary public hospitals, and to provide evidence for formulating strategies and measures to improve the practice environment of doctors.Methods:The data was collected from five rounds of China Healthcare Improvement Evaluation Survey from December 2015 to March 2021. The sample size was 17 945, 19 774, 20 786, 23 289, and 22 836, with a total of 104 630. The self-designed questionnaire on four dimensions of doctor-patient relationship, workload, administrative logistics support and professional identity was performed.Results:From the 1st to the 5th survey, the approval ratio of " the administrative and logistics department of this hospital is highly efficient" showed the characteristics of " U-shaped distribution" , and the approval ratio of " approve or encourage children to continue to engage in medical work" increased from 13.38% to 23.91%.From the 2nd to the 5th survey, the percentage of doctors who experienced doctor-patient disputes dropped from 28.96% to 23.20%, and the percentage of doctors agreeing that the relationship between doctors and patients in this hospital was improving continued to increase from 33.20% to 60.45%.From the 3rd to the 5th survey, the proportion of doctors experiencing medical troubles dropped from 15.10% to 14.19%, and the recognition rate of " the cafeteria of this hospital provided medical staff with nutritious and delicious meals" increased from 36.25% to 47.52%, and the approval proportion of " my current work load is heavy" dropped from 61.55% to 45.24%. The results of the 5th survey showed that there were significant differences in the approval ratios of each dimension in different genders, job titles and hospital types( P<0.001). Conclusions:From the perspective of doctor-patient relationship, workload, administrative logistics support, and professional identity, the improvement of doctors′ practice environment is still insufficient. Hospital administrators should continue to focus on the improvement of the doctor-patient relationship, and take necessary measures to reduce doctors′ workload and improve doctors′ professional identity.
