定性方法和手段通常用于卫生政策和系统研究，但尚未得到广泛的特点。我们描述了如何在该领域内使用定性方法，并提出了一个框架，以帮助研究人员在研究规划。为了实现这些目标，我们进行了一个范围的文献综述1年的选定的卫生政策和系统的研究，然后编码出版物的基础上，他们的主要分析焦点。出现了四个核心主题：政策或方案内容，对政策或方案文件的实质内容进行分析;政策或方案环境，对政策或方案的前景进行研究;政策或方案实施，对政策或方案的计划或实际执行进行研究;组织或系统运作，对卫生组织或系统的结构或功能进行研究。我们提供指导，利用该框架，并坚持在此过程中的质量最佳做法。
Qualitative methodologies and methods are commonly used in health policy and systems research but have not been extensively characterized. We describe how qualitative approaches are used within the field and present a framework to aid researchers in study planning. To achieve these aims, we conducted a scoping literature review of 1 year of selected health policy and systems research and then coded publications based on their primary analytical foci. Four core themes emerged: policy or program content, an analysis of the substance of policies or program documents; policy or program environment, a study of the landscape of policies or programs; policy or program implementation, a study of the planned or actual execution of a policy or program; and organization or system operations, a study of the structure or function of health organizations or systems. We provide guidance on utilizing the framework and adhering to qualitative best practices during the process.
