这项试点研究报告的调查有关的招聘，任命和培训的成员为卫生保健伦理委员会（HCECs）。背景：过去的研究已经审查HCECs，但集中在委员会的作用和广泛的化妆的成员。因此，我们的研究填补了一个重要的知识空白的趋势，成员的招聘和任命过程中雇用的HCECs组成其members.METHODS：我们发布了我们的调查，在2015年6月和8月之间的几个生物伦理listservs。在开始调查的103名受访者中，有59人符合我们的标准。我们对调查结果进行了定性和定量分析。结果：总体而言，我们发现在59个受访者中没有统一的招聘或任命标准。此外，虽然响应委员会不同的专业背景和属性，他们重视潜在的成员，我们发现，大多数受访者重视的特点，申请人在特定的知识或技能。结论：这项研究提供了第一次看HCECs如何招募成员。鉴于任命的HCEC成员是履行委员会义务的个人，需要进一步研究以更好地了解本研究期间发现的问题的复杂性。
This pilot study reports on a survey regarding recruitment, appointment, and training of members for health care ethics committees (HCECs).BACKGROUND: Past studies have examined HCECs, but have focused on the roles of the committees and the broad makeup of membership. Thus, our study fills an important knowledge gap in trends of membership recruitment and appointment processes employed by HCECs to comprise their membership.METHODS: We posted our survey on several bioethics listservs between June and August 2015. Of the 103 respondents that started the survey, 59 were eligible for inclusion based on our criteria. We analyzed survey results descriptively and qualitatively.RESULTS: Overall we found no unifying standards of recruitment or appointment across the 59 respondents. Additionally, while responding committees varied in the professional backgrounds and attributes they valued in potential members, we found that most respondents valued traits of the applicants over specific knowledge or skills.CONCLUSIONS: This study provides a first look into how HCECs recruit members. Future research is needed to better understand the complexities of the issues discovered during this study, given that the HCEC members appointed are the individuals who fulfill committee obligations.
