Abstract:
Objective:To construct an evaluation indicator system for accessories of patient monitor,so as to provide a basis for clinical management,equipment procurement,and technical improvement for accessories of medical monitor.Methods:The initial selection indicators of corresponding accessories of three types of monitoring of medical monitors,including electrocardiogram(ECG),blood oxygen saturation(SpO2)and non-invasive blood pressure(NIBP),were determined through literature research,expert consultation,and actual investigation.The Delphi method was adopted to conduct two rounds of questionnaire consultation for experts from clinical medicine,biomedical engineering and other fields in medical institutions included Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital,The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University and Medical Institute of Chengdu Institute of Metrology Verification and Testing.The evaluation indicators were screened and optimized,and the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)was used to calculate the weights of each indicator.The consistency test was conducted to verify the rationality of the evaluation indicator system.Results:The evaluation indicator system for accessories of medical monitor included three first-level indicators:clinical value,cost value,and management value.The number of second-level indicators about ECG,SpO2 and NIBP of evaluation indicator system were respectively 10,9 and 8,and the number of third-level indicators of that were respectively 20,19,and 14.In the first-level indicators,the clinical value had the highest weight,with 72.49%for ECG,70.88%for SpO2 and 70.32%for NIBP.In the second-level indicators,the accuracy(28.70%for ECG,38.13%for SpO2 and 43.03%for NIBP)and safety(27.47%for ECG,26.48%for SpO2 and 23.06%for NIBP)were the core indicators.The weights of cost value and management value were between 14.62%and 17.41%,and between 12.27%and 12.89%,respectively.Conclusion:The evaluation indicator system for accessories of medical monitor integrates multi-dimensional expert opinions and quantitative analysis,highlights the priority principle for clinical performance.It can provide theoretical support for optimizing selection about accessory for medical institutions,and improving quality of monitoring,and promoting standardized management in the industry.
