Abstract Objective: To evaluate and compare mail and meeting forms in evaluation of Delphi study. Methods: Delphi study by mail and meeting approaches was used to determine the health information dataset.Experts were required to grade the listed items through three indexes: importance,necessity and availability.Study duration,coefficient of variation of items,authority coefficient and coordination coefficient of the experts′ opinion of two forms of study were calculated and compared. Results: The study duration was four months through mail form and 2 days through meeting.Compared with the first round,the coefficient of variation decreased (P<0.001,all of the three indexes by two forms),and the cooperation index increased (P<0.005) in the second round.The experts′ opinions were easier to be consistent through meeting than through mail(P<0.033).And the authority coefficient by meeting consultation(0.83±0.05) was higher than that by mail (0.77±0.03) (P=0.001). Conclusion: Both mail and meeting forms of Delphi study can determine the health information dataset,but meeting consultation is better and requires shorter study duration.

信函和会议两种形式Delphi专家咨询的效果评价
目的:评价和比较信函和会议两种形式Delphi专家咨询的效果。 方法:通过信函和会议两种形式进行医疗卫生信息系统数据集的Delphi专家咨询,专家对各项指标从重要性、必需性和可获得性三个方面做出评价。计算并比较信函和会议两种形式咨询的周期、指标的变异系数、专家意见的权威系数、协调系数等。 结果:信函和会议形式完成两轮咨询的周期分别为4个月和2天。与第一轮相比,两种形式的咨询第二轮的变异系数均变小(P<0.001),协调系数变大(P<0.005)。比较两种形式的咨询效果发现,专家意见的权威系数(0.83±0.05)高于函询(0.77±0.03)(P=0.001);且会议咨询第二轮协调系数上升比信函咨询明显,即专家意见更容易趋向收敛(P<0.033)。 结论:两种形式的Delphi专家咨询均能达到咨询目的,但会议咨询效果更好,且能弥补信函咨询周期过长的缺陷。
