Three nested RCTs of dual or single stakeholder feedback within Delphi surveys during core outcome and information set development
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods Two rounds of Delphi questionnaires were completed by patients and health professionals during the development of three surgical core sets. Participants rated items 1 (not essential) to 9 (absolutely essential). For round 2, participants were randomized to receive feedback from their stakeholder group only (single) or both stakeholder groups separately (dual). Items to retain following each round were determined by pre-specified criteria.

Three nested randomized controlled trials of peer-only or multiple stakeholder group feedback within Delphi surveys during core outcome and information set development
BACKGROUND Methods for developing a core outcome or information set require involvement of key stakeholders to prioritise many items and achieve agreement as to the core set. The Delphi technique requires participants to rate the importance of items in sequential questionnaires (or rounds) with feedback provided in each subsequent round such that participants are able to consider the views of o...

Background: Prostate cancer is a growing health problem worldwide. The management of localised prostate cancer is controversial. It is unclear which of several surgical, radiotherapeutic, ablative, and surveillance treatments is the most effective. All have cost, process and recovery, and morbidity implications which add to treatment decision-making complexity for patients and healthcare profes...
متن کاملDevelopment of a gastroschisis core outcome set.
OBJECTIVE Outcome reporting heterogeneity impedes identification of gold standard treatments for children born with gastroschisis. Use of core outcome sets (COSs) in research reduces outcome reporting heterogeneity and ensures that studies are relevant to patients. The aim of this study was to develop a gastroschisis COS. DESIGN AND SETTING Systematic reviews and stakeholder nomination were u...
متن کاملChoosing outcomes for a core outcome set: does provision of feedback between delphi survey rounds help prioritise items?
Background A core outcome set (COS) is a minimal set of outcomes to be reported in a trial. Development is often challenging because patients and clinicians identify many important outcomes and prioritisation is difficult. Delphi surveys (with several rounds) are one approach for prioritising outcomes. Summarised participant responses are provided in subsequent ‘rounds’, allowing initial respon...
