Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To construct the quantitative evaluation system of regional clinical pharmacists’ professional ability, and provide reference for the evaluation of regional clinical pharmacists’ professional ability. METHODS Twenty-one experts from 18 hospitals in Chongqing were consulted to construct a professional ability index system for clinical pharmacists. TOPSIS model was used to calculate and obtain the expert authority index (EI), and the weighted averaging method was used to construct the judgment matrix. Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to calculate the weights of all indicators for establishing a quantitative evaluation system of regional clinical pharmacists’ professional ability according to the weights of each item. RESULTS The results of TOPSIS showed that the EI range was 0.010-0.100, and the relative authority of experts was distinguished and measured effectively. The results of AHP showed that the judgment matrix of the quantitative evaluation system met the requirements of consistency test (consistency test index CR<0.1). Finally, a quantitative evaluation system for regional clinical pharmacists’ professional ability was established, including 6 sub-objective items (basic ability, clinical practice ability, coordination and communication ability, publicity ability, scientific research and teaching ability, continuous improvement ability) and 25 index items (such as educational background, professional title, clinical pharmacy working years, daily theoretical skills assessment, information ability level, medication education, etc.). CONCLUSIONS A quantitative evaluation system of regional clinical pharmacists’ professional ability has been established. Our study provides a theoretical reference for the quantitative evaluation and optimal management of regional clinical pharmacists.
