ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a scientific and objective indicator system for nursing quality evaluation according to nursing works of neonatal surgical department. Methods To establish the indicator system based on the three- dimension quality structure. Literature retrieval, expert interview and Delphi expert enquiry were used to filter and improve indicators. Analytic hierarchy process was used to determine the index weight and check the consistency. Results The quality indicator system included three levels. There were 3 indicators in level one, 14 indicators in level two and 70 indicators in level three. Experts coefficient was 0.867, mean of importance values of two rounds were 3.83-5.00 and 4.08-5.00 , Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.292(P<0.01) and 0.301(P<0.01). Conclusions The nursing quality evaluation indicator system has high reliability and it can be used for guiding continuous improvement of nursing in neonatal surgical department.
