Adherence to the Dental Board of Australia Guidelines on dental records is not universal and remediation of deficient practise requires clarity in the practical application of standards. The aim of this research is to clarify practical requirements of dental record keeping in New South Wales.
Seventeen experts were invited to participate in an electronically administered series of Delphi questionnaires. Concepts were refined until consensus was reached.
Two rounds were required to achieve a satisfactory level of consensus (>80%). A high level of consensus was obtained across the two rounds, with 72% and 86% agreement on propositions in the first and second rounds, respectively. Consensus criteria were established in 14 domains to establish attributes of the complete dental record (ACDR).
The ACDR may supplement existing national guidelines and are likely to be useful in a remediation context in which clear, unambiguous expectations for conduct are paramount.
澳大利亚牙科委员会(Dental Board of Australia)的牙科记录指南并未得到普遍遵守,因此需要明确标准的实际应用,以纠正不足之处。本研究旨在阐明新南威尔士州牙科记录保存的实际要求。
邀请了 17 名专家参加电子管理的一系列 Delphi 问卷调查。概念经过精炼,直到达成共识。
需要两轮才能达到令人满意的共识水平(>80%)。两轮均取得了很高的共识水平,第一轮和第二轮的提案分别有 72%和 86%的人达成一致。在 14 个领域中确立了共识标准,以确定完整牙科记录(ACDR)的属性。
ACDR 可以补充现有的国家指南,并且在需要明确、明确的行为期望的整改背景下可能很有用。
