Construction of ICU nursing workload performance appraisal index based on information system

Objective To develop a reasonable performance evaluation index system for ICU nursing workload based on the hospital information system and the "structure-process-result" model. Methods The preliminary indicators of ICU nurses' performance appraisal system were constructed by the research group. Delphi method was used for expert consultation to evaluate the importance of the indicators of the performance appraisal system. After summarizing, sorting out and modifying the expert opinions, the performance appraisal index system of ICU nurses was obtained. SPSS 19.0 software is used to describe the importance of experts' evaluation of indicators at all levels, such as mean, standard deviation, coordination coefficient of experts' opinions and degree of coordination. Results The effective recovery rate of expert consultation papers was 100%. In the first round of inquiry, the average of importance assignment was 2.05-5.00, the average of rationality assignment was 2.13-5.00, and the average of importance assignment in the second round was 4.57-5.00. The average of rationality assignment was 4.71-5.00. The coefficient of variation of all levels of indicators in the first round was 0.02-0.18, the coefficient of variation in the second round was 0.02-0.12, which was less than 0.2, the positive coefficient of experts was 100%, and the authoritative coefficient of experts in the second round was 0.86 and 0.88. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, the ICU nurses' performance appraisal index system was finally formed, including three first-level indicators and 37 second-level indicators. Conclusion This study is based on the information system, according to the "structure-process-result" model, using the expert consultation method to construct the ICU nursing workload performance assessment index system, and establish the weight of each index, the research results are helpful to further improve the performance appraisal system of ICU nursing staff and improve the scientific management level of ICU.
