Abstract:
To analyze the main factors influencing the ethical review work of municipal hospitals in Shanxi Province by investigating the current situation of the construction and operation of ethics committees, and to put forward reasonable suggestions for improving the work of ethics committees. Questionnaire surveys and interviews were used to investigate the composition of ethics committees, systems and standard operating procedures, personnel training, review project methods, time limits, etc. of 24 hospitals at municipal levels in Shanxi Province. The establishment and system of ethics committees in tertiary hospitals at prefecture and city level were basically reasonable, and they could actively play the role of ethics committees. At present, most hospitals do not pay enough attention to the work of ethics committees, lack of full-time staff and systematic training, resulting in insufficient ethics review capabilities. The construction of the ethics committee of the second-level hospital is a mere formality, and no substantive work has been carried out. It is recommended to strengthen the supervision, increase the training of ethics committees and researchers, improve the information management of ethics committees, and establish regional ethics committees to further improve the ability and efficiency of ethics review.
