Abstract:
Currently， evidence on the efficacy and risk of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） injections is seriously insufficient， and it is difficult to evaluate TCM injections comprehensively， truly and objectively using available efficacy evaluation indicators. Therefore， establishing a clinical efficacy evaluation system that can effectively reflect TCM injections is imperative. Core outcome set （COS） has played an important role in screening TCM efficacy evaluation indicators， however， there are still certain problems， such as large differences in efficacy indicators， non-standardization， and lack of featured and specific TCM indicators. Mixed method research （MMR） has the advantages of looking at problems from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives. It is thereby proposed to use COS and MMR integrated model to establish a clinical efficacy evaluation indicator system that not only fully considers the cha-racteristics of TCM injections， but also highlights the efficacy and advantages of TCM injections from the perspective of TCM intervention. Simultaneously， an indicator screening method using MMR to optimize COS research model is formulated， which can provide ideas for the research on efficacy evaluation indicators of TCM injections.
