摘要

Abstract

Objective

The present study establishes a quality-sensitive index (QSI) system for managing wet packs after steam sterilization.

Methods

The "structure

process

and outcome" model was adopted as the theoretical framework. The manuscript of the QSI system was drawn up after the literature review. The calculation formula was determined and data was collected by group discussion. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation

the final draft was formed.

Results

The questionnaire response rates of the two rounds of expert consultation were 100%

the expert authority coefficient (Cr) was 0.905 and 0.925

and Kendall's coefficient of concordance (Kendall's W) was 0.159 and 0.161 (

0.01)

respectively. Finally

the QSI system consisted of 3 first-

9 second-

and 22 third-level indexes.

Conclusion

The QSI system established in this study is highly professional

scientific

and reliable

providing a reference for the quality control of wet pack management.
