Hospitals conduct evacuation exercises to improve performance during emergency events. An essential aspect in this process is the creation of reliable and valid evaluation tools. The objective of this article is to describe the development and implications of a disaster evacuation performance tool that measures one portion of the very complex process of evacuation.
Through the application of the Delphi technique and DeVellis's framework, disaster and neonatal experts provided input in developing this performance evaluation tool. Following development, content validity and reliability of this tool were assessed.
Large pediatric hospital and medical center in the Midwest.
The tool was pilot tested with an administrative, medical, and nursing leadership group and then implemented with a group of 68 healthcare workers during a disaster exercise of a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
The tool has demonstrated high content validity with a scale validity index of 0.979 and inter-rater reliability G coefficient (0.984, 95% CI: 0.948-0.9952).
The Delphi process based on the conceptual framework of DeVellis yielded a psychometrically sound evacuation performance evaluation tool for a NICU.
医院开展疏散演习以提高应急事件中的表现。这一过程的一个重要方面是创建可靠且有效的评估工具。本文的目的是描述一种灾难疏散绩效工具的开发及意义,该工具用于衡量疏散这一非常复杂过程的一部分。
通过应用德尔菲技术和德维利斯的框架,灾难和新生儿专家为开发此绩效评估工具提供了意见。开发完成后,对该工具的内容效度和信度进行了评估。
中西部的大型儿科医院和医疗中心。
该工具先在行政、医疗和护理领导团队中进行了预测试,然后在新生儿重症监护病房(NICU)的一次灾难演习中,由一组68名医护人员使用。
该工具显示出较高的内容效度,量表效度指数为0.979,评分者间信度G系数为(0.984,95%置信区间:0.948 - 0.9952)。
基于德维利斯概念框架的德尔菲法产生了一种心理测量学上合理的NICU疏散绩效评估工具。
