Objective:To construct a training system of the professional postgraduate degree of general practice using the Delphi method.Methods:On the basis of consulting relevant policies and literature, and drawing lessons from foreign general practice training systems, the index system of training professional postgraduate medical students of general practice was preliminarily developed. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, using the threshold method to select evaluation indexes, the training system was finally established. Excel 2010 and SPSS 19.0 were used to make data entry and statistical analysis.Results:The active coefficients of experts in the two rounds of Delphi consultation were 75.0% (12/16) and 91.7% (11/12) respectively, both the two rounds of the degree of specialist authority were 0.87, and the final coordination coefficient of the specialists' opinion was 0.452. The index system was composed of 5 first-level indexes including training objectives, theoretical curriculum setting, clinical practice setting, teaching staff and graduation requirements and 31 second-level indexes.Conclusion:The experts have great initiative and authority on research subjects. The opinions of all experts tend to be uniform after two rounds of consultation, and the results are reliable. A relatively complete and credible training index system of professional postgraduate degree of general medicine has been built.

Objective:To develop a monitoring tool for evaluating health literacy level of general practitioners.Methods:The health literacy monitoring questionnaire for general practitioners was preliminarily developed by referring to the National Residents′ Health Literacy Monitoring Questionnaire. The Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of consultation among 15 experts to improve the questionnaire.Results:The effective response rates of the two rounds of expert consultation were 100.0%, the expert authority coefficients of the two rounds of consultation were 0.87 and 0.86, the mean scores of the two rounds of expert questions were 3.93 -5.00 and 4.47-5.00. The variance coefficients of the two rounds of expert scores were 0-0.32 and 0-0.20, and the Kendall harmony coefficients of the two rounds of expert scores were 0.167 and 0.102, respectively (all P<0.05). Finally, the basic theory literacy dimension (including 8 chronic disease prevention items, 5 maternal and child health items and 5 infectious disease prevention items), and the basic skill literacy dimension (including 6 safety and first aid items, 8 health information items), and the healthy lifestyle and behavior dimension (7 items, including regular physical examination, exercise, diet and so on) were established. A total of 39 items and 3 dimensions were used to monitor the health literacy level of general practitioners. Conclusion:The monitoring tool of health literacy level for general practitioners based on Delphi method has been preliminarily constructed, which can be used to evaluate the health literacy level of general practitioners.
