ObjectiveTo explore the influence factors on inpatients' satisfaction, in order to identify influence factors for improving inpatients' satisfaction. MethodsA sampling survey was conducted in hospitals at different levels in Sichuan province. The satisfaction of inpatients in these hospitals was investigated by self-designed questionnaire. Then, a structural equation model on influence factors of satisfaction was constructed. ResultsA total of 1 237 inpatients from 12 hospitals were surveyed. The total satisfaction of these patients was 82.14%. The patients' satisfaction of grade A tertiary hospital in Chengdu city was obviously lower than that of the prefecture- and county-level hospitals (all P values <0.05). The fitting degree of structural equation model was good; Inpatients' satisfaction was mainly influenced by 5 factors including hospital values (HV), service quality of doctors and nurses (SQ), service process (SP), convenience of resources (CR) and comfort of facilities (CF). Of the 5 factors, the HV and SQ respectively ranked the 1st and 2nd to the influence degree on satisfaction. ConclusionThis study identifies the key influence factors on inpatients' satisfaction. Specific measures should be taken by hospital administrators to improve the quality of medical services and the satisfaction of inpatients.
混合模型框架下的模型,如潜变量增长混合模型(latent growth mixture modeling,LGMM)或潜类别增长分析(latent class growth analysis,LCGA),因估算过程中涉及多个决策过程,导致潜变量轨迹分析结果的报告呈现多样性。为解决这一问题,指南制订小组按照系统化的制订流程,通过 4 轮德尔菲法调查,遵循专家小组意见,提出了各领域报告潜变量轨迹分析结果时需采用统一的标准,最终确定了报告轨迹研究结果必要的关键条目,发布了潜变量轨迹研究报告规范(guidelines for reporting on latent trajectory studies,GRoLTS),并利用 GRoLTS 评价了 38 篇使用 LGMM 或 LCGA 研究创伤后应激轨迹的论文的报告情况。
Objective To analyze the factors influencing day surgery developing towards same-day surgery, and provide a reference for the promotion of same-day surgery. Methods A questionnaire on influencing factors of same-day surgery was prepared based on structural equation modeling (SEM), including 6 dimensions and 23 items. From January to October 2021, at the Day Surgery Center of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, the random sampling method was used to select the research subjects for a questionnaire survey, and SEM was used to analyze the factors impacting the iterative development of day surgery to same-day surgery service model. Results A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed, and 192 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 96.0%. The Cronbach’s α coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.857, and the Cronbach’s α coefficient of each dimension was from 0.832 to 0.934. The KMO test value was 0.822, and the result of Bartlett sphericity test was χ2=4568.330, P<0.001. The model fit indexes met the standard requirements well. The result of SEM revealed that the standard path coefficients of “the hospital’s preliminary preparation for day surgery developing towards same-day surgery” impacting “the guarantee system related to surgical quality and safety”, “the guarantee system related to surgical quality and safety” impacting “the public’s awareness of day surgery developing towards same-day surgery”, “the guarantee system related to surgical quality and safety” impacting “the ‘hospital-community’ integrated collaboration network”, “the public’s awareness of day surgery developing towards same-day surgery” impacting “the ‘hospital-community’ integrated collaboration network”, and “the ‘hospital-community’ integrated collaboration network” impacting “the iterative upgrade of day surgery” were all larger than 0.5, indicating strong influences between these factors, but the absolute value of standard path coefficient of the “hospital’s development brought by the transform of day surgery to same-day surgery” impacting “the guarantee system related to surgical quality and safety” was smaller than 0.3. Conclusion The hospital’s preliminary preparation, the guarantee system related to surgical quality and safety, the development of the “hospital-community” integrated collaboration network, and the public’s awareness are the probable factors influencing the iterative development of day surgery to same-day surgery.
ObjectiveTo understand the current state of medical graduate student labor education in the new era and its effectiveness, to explore the mechanism by which labor education affects labor practices, and to identify intervention points for improving labor education. MethodsA questionnaire survey was conducted from July 3 to 13, 2022, on the labor education of 216 medical graduate students from 10 double-first-class universities. The relationship between labor education, labor awareness, labor ability, and labor practices was analyzed. ResultsDescriptive analysis results showed that medical graduate students received little labor education. The structural equation model results showed that labor education positively impacted labor awareness (γ=0.712) and labor ability (γ=0.755), and labor awareness and labor ability positively impacted labor practices (γ=0.400, γ=0.635), indicating that labor education has a positive impact on labor practices. ConclusionTo improve the weak state of medical graduate student labor education, it is necessary to increase related training and courses, enrich the types and content of labor education, strengthen the assessment mechanism of labor education, and strengthen the responsibilities of instructors.
ObjectiveTo construct a structural equation model of the mechanism of the role of medical humanities literacy in job competency and to conduct empirical analysis to verify the supporting role of medical humanities literacy in cultivating job competency. MethodsLiterature research was conducted to select the initial indicator system for medical humanities literacy and job competency, and then a conceptual model was constructed. Questionnaire data from four hospitals in Chengdu were collected. Through exploratory factor analysis, an indicator system for medical humanities literacy and job competency more suitable for the research population was obtained and the conceptual model was adjusted. Finally, the positive mechanism of medical humanities literacy on job competency was verified using confirmatory factor analysis (structural equation model). ResultsThe Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the overall questionnaire involved in the exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses was greater than 0.9, and the KMO values of the questionnaire were greater than 0.8, with a Bartlett's sphericity test P value less than 0.01, indicating good reliability and validity of the questionnaire. The model fit of the structural equation model met the requirements, with a chi-square degree of freedom ratio (CMIN/df) of 2.768, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) of 0.077, comparative fit index (CFI) of 0.891, normalized fit index (NFI) of 0.840, and incremental fit index (IFI) of 0.891. ConclusionThe improvement of individual characteristics in job competency is mainly influenced by medical humanities knowledge and spirit. The improvement of cognitive characteristics in job competency is mainly influenced by medical humanities knowledge and ability. The improvement of achievement characteristics in job competency is mainly influenced by medical humanities ability and spirit. The improvement of management characteristics in job competency is mainly influenced by medical humanities spirit.
