Abstract

Aim

The aim of this study is to develop a new instrument (The Lean Management Scale for Nursing Services in Hospitals- LMS-N) to evaluate the lean levels of nursing services in hospitals and to evaluate its psychometric properties.

Method

A three-phase construct was used to develop this scale and to determine its psychometric properties: (1) creating the item pool, (2) preliminarily evaluating items and (3) evaluating psychometric properties. This methodological study evaluated the scale's face, content and construct validities, internal consistency, and temporal stability. The psychometric properties of the scale were tested with a total of 695 nurses in different sample groups. Data were collected between 18 November 2020 and 15 May 2021.

Results

The scale's content validity index was 0.75. According to principal component analysis, the scale included 22 items and five subdimensions, and the total variance was 60.32%. In confirmatory factor analysis, the fit indices were good or acceptable for this construct. Its internal consistency was good or acceptable according to reliability analysis. Test–retest showed that the scale had temporal stability.

Conclusion

Lean Management Scale in Nursing Services in Hospitals is a valid and reliable tool that can evaluate the level of leanness of nursing services. It provides a comprehensive evaluation with five subdimensions: management support, visual stock management, work environment layout, preventive notification system and waste detection.

医院护理服务精益管理量表的开发与心理测试"。

目的：本研究旨在开发一种新的工具（医院护理服务精益管理量表-LMS-N），用于评价医院护理服务的精益化水平，并评估其心理测量学特性：方法：采用三阶段构建法来编制该量表并确定其心理测量学特性：(1) 创建项目库；(2) 初步评估项目；(3) 评估心理测量学特性。这项方法研究评估了量表的表面效度、内容效度和结构效度、内部一致性和时间稳定性。对不同样本组共 695 名护士进行了量表心理特性测试。数据收集时间为 2020 年 11 月 18 日至 2021 年 5 月 15 日：量表的内容效度指数为 0.75。根据主成分分析，量表包括 22 个项目和 5 个子维度，总方差为 60.32%。在确认性因素分析中，该构念的拟合指数为良好或可接受。根据信度分析，其内部一致性良好或可以接受。重测表明，该量表具有时间稳定性：医院护理服务精益管理量表是一个有效、可靠的工具，可以评价护理服务的精益化水平。该量表从管理支持、可视化库存管理、工作环境布局、预防通知系统和浪费检测五个子维度进行综合评价。
