Abstract

Following a systematic review of quality indicators employed in the evaluation of clinical care for individuals with HIV and AIDS, we performed "an exploratory study" that aims to assess the clinical significance and practical applicability of these indicators from the perspective of health care professionals (HCPs) specialising in HIV and AIDS care. Twenty-five HCPs filled out two questionnaires. From the initial list of 88 quality indicators, 50 were identified as the most relevant and useful in HIV and AIDS clinical care. Analysis was conducted on the individual indicators, and the outcomes were categorised into seven domains for clinical relevance and practical usefulness. Health care professionals deemed the functional organisational structure and the therapy domain to have the most pertinent and useful indicators among the seven different clinical domains, followed by the prevention domain.

评估用于评价临床护理质量的艾滋病毒和艾滋病指标的相关性和实用性:医疗保健专业人员的观点。
在对艾滋病病毒感染者和艾滋病患者临床护理评估中采用的质量指标进行系统性回顾之后,我们开展了一项 "探索性研究",旨在从专门从事艾滋病病毒感染者和艾滋病患者护理的医疗保健专业人员(HCPs)的角度评估这些指标的临床意义和实际适用性。25 名医护人员填写了两份调查问卷。从最初的 88 个质量指标清单中,确定了 50 个与艾滋病临床护理最相关和最有用的指标。对单个指标进行了分析,并根据临床相关性和实用性将结果分为七个领域。医护人员认为,在七个不同的临床领域中,功能性组织结构和治疗领域的指标最为相关和有用,其次是预防领域。
