Abstract

Objective: To adapt the European Service Mapping Schedule (ESMS) for use in Spain and assess the quality of this schedule.

Method: Following linguistic and conceptual translation, 77 services in five Spanish catchment areas were described by independent local raters, including two experts in health services research. Feasibility (applicability. acceptability and practicality), descriptive validity and overall percentage agreement were assessed.

Results: ESMS feasibility was considered adequate. The tree system facilitates reporting and comparison of data. Face, content and discriminant validity are adequate for almost all services. The overall reliability was high but completion of the service utilization section required expert supervision. The ESMS revealed large differences in service availability and utilization in the five different areas of Spain.

Conclusion: The ESMS has proved useful for describing mental health services in Spain, and facilitates comparisons between catchment areas.

评估工具:欧洲服务映射计划(ESMS)在西班牙的标准化。

目的:调整欧洲服务测绘计划(ESMS)在西班牙的使用，并评估该计划的质量。方法:经过语言和概念翻译，由独立的当地评价员(包括两名卫生服务研究专家)描述了五个西班牙集水区的77项服务。可行性(适用性。可接受性和实用性)、描述效度和总体百分比一致性进行评估。结果:ESMS的可行性是充分的。树形系统便于数据的报告和比较。面孔、内容和判别效度对几乎所有的服务都是足够的。总体可靠性较高，但服务利用部分的完成需要专家监督。ESMS揭示了西班牙五个不同地区在服务可用性和利用率方面的巨大差异。结论:ESMS已被证明有助于描述西班牙的精神卫生服务，并促进了集水区之间的比较。
