Study on the Rationality Evaluation Indicator System of Antibiotics with Delphi Method / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE： To provide scientific evidence for establishing perfect rationality evaluation indicator system of antibiotics. METHODS： On the basis of literature research， Delphi method was used to conduct several rounds of consultations on 30 experts in related fields with E-mail and questionnaire field investigation. After several rounds of consultations， rationality evaluation index system for antibiotics was determined. The effective recovery rate of expert consultation questionnaire was used to express the positive coefficient of experts； the authoritative coefficient was used to express the authoritative degree of experts； the index importance assignment and the full score ratio were used to reflect the concentration degree of experts’ opinions； the coefficient of variation and the coefficient of coordination were used to express the coordination degree of experts’ opinions. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： After two rounds of consultations， response rates of the questionnaire in two rounds of surveys were 100％ and 96.67％， indicating experts were highly motivated. The authoritative coefficients were 0.91 and 0.88， indicating experts had a high degree of authority. Finally， an evaluation index system for rationality of antibiotics was established， which included four first-level indicators （indications， drug selection， medication process， management indicators） and 35 second-level indicators. Among them， the mean value of importance scoring of first-level indicators ranged from 4.28 to 5.00， the full score ratio from 0.93 to 1.00， the coefficient of variation from 0.00 to 0.15 and the coefficient of coordination was 0.446 （P＜0.001）. While， the mean value of importance scoring of second-level indicators ranged from 3.83 to 4.79； the full score ratio from 0.67 to 1.00； variation coefficient from 0.10 to 0.26 and the coefficient of coordination was 0.115 （P＜0.001）， which indicating the system was reliable.
