本文旨在展示名义分组技术作为一种生成优先级信息的方法的通用性和应用。名义小组技术被用于四个焦点小组的背景下，包括来自急诊科(ED)和一家繁忙的地区医院的产科和助产区的临床专家，以评估急诊科对孕妇的分类和管理。所产生的数据被用来为随后的参与性行动研究小组创建一份优先讨论触发因素清单。事实证明，这项技术是一种富有成效和效率的数据收集方法，它按认识到的重要性等级产生信息，并查明现实世界中的问题。这些信息对启动参与性行动研究项目至关重要，并被推荐为一种有效和可靠的数据收集方法，特别是在与临床专家进行研究时。
This paper aims to demonstrate the versatility and application of nominal group technique as a method for generating priority information. Nominal group technique was used in the context of four focus groups involving clinical experts from the emergency department (ED) and obstetric and midwifery areas of a busy regional hospital to assess the triage and management of pregnant women in the ED. The data generated were used to create a priority list of discussion triggers for the subsequent Participatory Action Research Group. This technique proved to be a productive and efficient data collection method which produced information in a hierarchy of perceived importance and identified real world problems. This information was vital in initiating the participatory action research project and is recommended as an effective and reliable data collection method, especially when undertaking research with clinical experts.
