| Summary: | Objective The aim of this study was to construct a quality evaluation indicator system for extended care in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), provide beneficial references for quality evaluation and practice standardisation of extended care.Design This study was conducted from April to November 2023. Based on the three-dimensional quality structure model of ‘structure–process–result’, we used literature review and Delphi method to form the quality evaluation indicator system for extended care in patients with COPD and determined the weight of each indicator by analytic hierarchy process (AHP).Setting Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University and School of Nursing and Health, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, China.Participants 20 experts from different universities and hospitals in China participated in the study. They all had profound attainments in clinical treatment, nursing and extended care of COPD.Primary outcome measures Effective questionnaire response rate, coefficient of expert authority, arithmetic mean, proportion of maximum score, Kendall harmony coefficient, scores of importance, variation coefficient and weight were used to evaluate the quality evaluation indicator system for extended care.Results In the two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, the effective questionnaire response rates were both 100%. The coefficients of expert authority were 0.83 and 0.89, respectively. Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.088 and 0.215, respectively. The final formed quality evaluation indicator system for extended care included 3 primary indicators, 10 secondary indicators and 40 tertiary indicators. For each indicator, the variation coefficient was 0.063–0.151 and the weight was 0.001–0.065.Conclusion The quality evaluation indicator system for extended care based on mature theoretical basis and scientific method is scientific and reliable. And the weight of each indicator is set reasonably and accurately, which could provide a basis for quality evaluation and continuous quality improvement of extended care. |
