在卫生服务研究中混合和多方法研究的数量背景下，本研究试图开发一种评估工具，以确定此类研究纳入系统评价时的方法学和报告质量。关于我们现有的质量评估工具的设计和使用的评估证据与多样化的设计研究（QATSDD）进行了合成，以提高和完善它的应用在整个卫生服务研究。通过对使用Google Scholar识别的所有文章进行文献综述收集了次要数据，这些文章引用了自2012年成立至2019年12月的QATSDD工具。还邀请所有引用QATSDD的论文的第一作者（n=197）通过定性在线调查提供进一步的评价数据。从调查和文献综述的评价结果合成naradically和这些数据用于确定需要完善的领域。改进后的工具进行评分员间信度，面效度和内容效度分析。QATSDD工具的主要局限性与该工具的使用范围缺乏明确性以及超出实验心理学研究的标准的应用难易程度有关。多样性研究质量评估（QuADS）工具作为一种修订工具出现，以解决QATSDD的局限性。QuADS工具表现出实质性的评分者间信度（k=0.66），表面和内容效度的应用在系统评价与混合，或多方法的卫生服务研究。我们的研究结果强调了评估工具的感知价值，以确定包括异质性研究的综述中研究的方法和报告质量。QuADS工具具有很强的可靠性和易用性，适用于多种或混合方法的卫生服务研究。在线版本包含补充材料，可通过10.1186/s12913-021-06122-y获得。
In the context of the volume of mixed- and multi-methods studies in health services research, the present study sought to develop an appraisal tool to determine the methodological and reporting quality of such studies when included in systematic reviews. Evaluative evidence regarding the design and use of our existing Quality Assessment Tool for Studies with Diverse Designs (QATSDD) was synthesised to enhance and refine it for application across health services research. Secondary data were collected through a literature review of all articles identified using Google Scholar that had cited the QATSDD tool from its inception in 2012 to December 2019. First authors of all papers that had cited the QATSDD (n=197) were also invited to provide further evaluative data via a qualitative online survey. Evaluative findings from the survey and literature review were synthesised narratively and these data used to identify areas requiring refinement. The refined tool was subject to inter-rater reliability, face and content validity analyses. Key limitations of the QATSDD tool identified related to a lack of clarity regarding scope of use of the tool and in the ease of application of criteria beyond experimental psychological research. The Quality Appraisal for Diverse Studies (QuADS) tool emerged as a revised tool to address the limitations of the QATSDD. The QuADS tool demonstrated substantial inter-rater reliability (k=0.66), face and content validity for application in systematic reviews with mixed, or multi-methods health services research. Our findings highlight the perceived value of appraisal tools to determine the methodological and reporting quality of studies in reviews that include heterogeneous studies. The QuADS tool demonstrates strong reliability and ease of use for application to multi or mixed-methods health services research.
