Abstract:
Objective:To construct an evaluation index system of public health emergency preparedness capacity in county-level centers for disease control and prevention (CDC), so as to provide the evidence for improving the public health emergency preparedness capacity in county-level CDC.
Methods:An index system framework was created based on review of health emergency policies, laws and regulations released in China from 2003 to 2023. The importance, sensitivity and accessibility of indicators were scored and screened through two rounds of Delphi expert consultations, and the weights of indicators were calculated using precedence charts. The efficiency of Delphi expert consultations was evaluated using the active coefficient, authority coefficient and coordination coefficient.
Results:Eighteen experts participated in consultations, including 9 men, 15 with educational levels of master degree and higher, 12 with preventive medicine or public health as the specialty, and 12 with deputy senior professional titles and higher. The active coefficients of two rounds of consultations were 100.00% and 94.44%, and the authority coefficients were 0.83 and 0.84, respectively. The coordination coefficients of secondary and tertiary indicators during the second round consultation were 0.341 and 0.241, which were both higher than those during the first round (both P<0.05). The final evaluation index system included 8 primary indicators, 21 secondary indicators and 58 tertiary indicators. Among primary indicators, health emergency organization and management (0.203 1), health emergency team building (0.203 1) and financial support for health emergency (0.203 1) had the highest weights, and of secondary indicators, completion degree of health emergency administration regulations (initial weight/global weight: 0.750 0/0.152 3), health emergency team building (0.750 0/0.152 3) and financial support for emergency (0.750 0/0.152 3) had the highest weights, while among tertiary indicators, defining the duty of health emergency administration sectors had the highest weight (0.750 0/0.114 2).
Conclusion:The created evaluation index system is feasible for evaluation of the public health emergency preparedness capacity in county-level CDC.
