Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To establish a management index system for off-label drug use in medical institutions， offering a reference for the improvement of the management of off-label drug use in medical institutions from Xizang region. METHODS The framework of the management index of off-label drug use was initially developed based on regulations， literature retrieval and group discussion. Then，two rounds of Delphi consultation were conducted via the “Wenjuanxing” mobile mini-program involving 10 in-hospital experts from the fields of medicine， pharmacy， and hospital management. The consultation results were then sorted， revised and statistically analyzed， the final index system was established. RESULTS The questionnaire recovery rates of the two rounds of expert consultation were both 100%. The judgment coefficients were both 0.93， the familiarity degrees were both 0.74， and the authority coefficients were 0.84 in both rounds. Kendall’s coordination coefficients were 0.278 and 0.308， respectively （P＜ 0.001）， and the full score rates in both rounds were no less than 20%. The final management index system for off-label drug use in the hospital was established， including 3 first-level indicators（off-label drug use graded management regulations， off-label drug use supervision model， off-label drug use management level quantitative assessment system）， 14 second-level indicators （such as management level classification and key points of informed consent， etc.）， and 52 third-level indicators（such as general use level， restricted-use level， and special-use level， etc.）. CONCLUSIONS The management indicators for off-label drug use developed in this study， which are established based on Delphi method， are aligned with practical needs of hospital operations and meet the standards of expert enthusiasm， authority， and consistency.
