[Construction of risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery].

Abstract

Objective: To construct Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery based on Delphi method, providing a basis for early prediction and assessment of the risk of hyperoxemia in patients after cardiac surgery.

Methods: A research team was established. Based on the characteristics of extracorporeal circulation cardiac surgery, the Chinese and English literature published by each database until October 2022 was retrieved and the opinions of relevant professional clinicians were combined to screen the risk factors of hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery, and the preliminary draft of the Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery was drawn up. The Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of expert letter consultation to supplement and improve the initial draft and finally established the final draft of the Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery.

Results: The preliminary draft of the Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery was constructed according to the literature review and the opinions of relevant professional clinicians, which contained 4 dimensions and 21 items. A total of 14 experts were consulted by letter, including 5 senior titles and 9 associate senior titles. Six of them major in critical care and the other eight major in cardiovascular surgery. The effective response rates for the two rounds of questionnaire surveys were 100% and 85.71%, expert familiarity levels were 0.81 and 0.80, judgment coefficients were 0.94 and 0.92, respectively. Expert authority coefficients were both 0.86. Coefficients of variation for the importance and feasibility items in the two rounds ranged from 0.13 to 0.32 and 0.11 to 0.32, 0.06 to 0.26 and 0.06 to 0.35, respectively. The Kendall's W for importance and feasibility in the two rounds were 0.264 and 0.162, and 0.258 and 0.144 respectively, indicating statistically significant (all P < 0.05). After two rounds of expert consultations, a comprehensive evaluation and selection process resulted in the final establishment of the Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery, consisting of 4 dimensions and 23 items, which included general data, past history, operation-related data and postoperative data.

Conclusions: The Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients after cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery based on the Delphi method is highly scientific and feasible, which can provide reference for clinical assessments of the risk of hyperoxemia in such patients.
