Abstract

AIM: This study aimed to develop an evaluation index system for hand surgery rehabilitation nursing using the Delphi method.


METHOD: A survey questionnaire on evaluation indicators for hand surgery rehabilitation nursing was developed, and 18 professionals including orthopedic surgeons, orthopedic nursing, and rehabilitation departments were selected. The survey was conducted using the letter method, and a database was established to screen the items, forming a hand surgery rehabilitation nursing evaluation scale. The expert's positive coefficient, authority coefficient, and coordination coefficient were analyzed, and the mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and weight coefficient were calculated. Based on the correlation assignment results, the Item-level Content Validity Index (I-CVI), Scale-level Content Validity Index (S-CVI), average S-CVI, Probability of random consistency (Pc), and corrected I-CVI Kendall's coefficient of concordance (K*) were determined.


RESULT: In the first round of expert inquiry, a total of 18 questionnaires were distributed, and 15 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 83.33%. In the second round, 15 questionnaires were distributed and 15 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 100%. The two rounds of expert evaluations yielded judgment scores of 0.91 and 0.95, with proficiency levels of 0.83 and 0.87 and authority coefficients of 0.87 and 0.91, respectively. The Kendall's W values for the two rounds were 0.313 and 0.224, respectively, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.01). After screening, 23 indicators were retained, with a coefficient of variation ranging from 0.072 to 0.166. Among the third-level indicators, 12 had an I-CVI of 1.00, 4 had an I-CVI of 0.93, and 7 had an I-CVI of 0.87. The overall S-CVI was 0.80, with an average S-CVI of 0.95. The K* values for the 23 indicators ranged from 0.8662 to 1.0000.


CONCLUSIONS: The evaluation index system for hand injury rehabilitation nursing based on the Delphi method is highly scientific, and is expected to be used to guide the clinical evaluation of hand injury rehabilitation nursing.
