A recent applicability study highlighted the need for the existing checklist for reporting research using a simulated patient methodology (CRiSP) to be clearer and user-friendly. The aim of this study was to update the checklist to address these concerns.
A fourth round of the Delphi consensus study, used in the original checklist development work, was conducted. Previous participants, who had expertise in SP methodology, were invited to complete a questionnaire including a list of 13 checklist items developed in the previous study and revised following applicability testing. Closed questions were analysed for frequency. Consensus was predefined as >80% agreement. All items were discussed in a roundtable meeting and further modified as necessary. Responses to open questions were content analysed.
Twenty-one authors participated. There was a statistical consensus in 12 out of 13 modified checklist items.
A final reporting checklist for studies in health research using SP methodology has been developed using a consensus approach. Further refinements may be needed to increase the generalizability of the checklist in different contexts.
最近的一项适用性研究强调，需要对现有的使用模拟患者方法进行研究报告的检查表（CRiSP）进行更清晰和用户友好的修改。本研究旨在更新检查表以解决这些问题。
采用在原始检查表开发工作中使用的第四轮德尔菲共识研究。邀请具有 SP 方法专业知识的先前参与者完成一份问卷，其中包括在前一项研究中制定的 13 项检查表项目清单，并根据适用性测试进行修订。对封闭问题进行频率分析。共识定义为>80%的同意。在圆桌会议上讨论所有项目，并根据需要进行进一步修改。对开放式问题的回答进行内容分析。
有 21 位作者参与。在 13 个修改后的检查表项目中有 12 个项目达成了统计学共识。
使用共识方法为使用 SP 方法进行健康研究的研究制定了最终报告检查表。可能需要进一步改进，以提高检查表在不同环境下的通用性。
