Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to evaluate the clinical effect of clinical practice guideline on traditional Chinese medicine therapy alone or combined with antibiotics for acute tonsillitis. The applicability and application of the Guideline were evaluated based on the clinicians by using the electronic questionnaire. Questionnaires about 538 on application evaluation and 502 questionnaires on applicability evaluation were completed from April 28 to July 9, 2018. The subjects in the questionnaires include the clinicians with junior title, intermediate title, and senior title that have used this Guideline. The descriptive statistical analysis of the collected questionnaire was carried out. In the applicability evaluation, according to the classification of professional titles, the application rate was highest in intermediate title clinicians (26.77%), followed by junior (23.98%) and deputy senior (19.33%) professional title clinicians. In the quality evaluation, the rationality of application scope (98.61%) and the terminology accuracy (98.81%) scores were higher, and the rationality of differentiation and classification (96.05%) was the lowest. The applicability evaluation suggested that clinicians believed this Guideline had high safety (98.42%), reasonable content (98.03%), significant effect (99.6%), reduced use of antibiotics in Western medicine (93.89%), and a high applicability ratio (96.44%). In the application evaluation, Department of lung disease showed the highest application rate (44.24%); rationality of the Guideline was more than 97% in treatment rules and prophylaxis except the syndrome differentiation (92.75%); a high ratio of clinicians believed the recommended scheme was good: curative effect 97.4%, safety 97.59%, and economy 93.87%. The study shows that the clinical practice guideline on traditional Chinese medicine therapy alone or combined with antibiotics for acute tonsillitis is of good quality, high clinical use and good effect. It can be used as a standardized treatment scheme for acute tonsillitis in traditional Chinese medicine. But there are some unsuitable contents and need to be further improved. The Guideline should strengthen the revision on differentiation of symptoms and signs as well as prophylaxis.
