Abstract

The Graduate Medical Education National Advisory Committee (GMENAC) was an advisory group to the Secretary, US Department of Health and Human Services. Its charter ended September 30, 1980. It submitted 107 recommendations to achieve a better balance between future physician requirements and future physician supply, by specialty and geography. Among its contributions were the development of a manpower forecasting framework and series of models which are described here, together with the results of these models. These models may have significant utility in future human resource planning at both national and local levels.

Results of a local modified Delphi consensus on use of plasma metagenomic next-generation sequencing.

Molecular tests without well-defined test performance characteristics are increasingly available for diagnosis of infectious diseases. These tests present a diagnostic stewardship challenge for institutions. We share the results of a local modified Delphi consensus undertaken to define appropriate scenarios for use of plasma metagenomic next-generation sequencing.

[Consensus process in the field of health inequalities. The Delphi technique].

OBJECTIVE: An approach to finding the determinants of the risk of health inequality among foreign immigrants living in the city of Barcelona. DESIGN: A descriptive study done by interviewing a group of key informers, using the Delphi technique. SETTING: Barcelona city Health Region. PARTICIPANTS: 20 professionals from different sectors and levels of care were selected because of the relationship of their work area to the immigrant population. Primary Care, specialist, hospital, Family Planning and Public Health professionals took part from the health field; Primary Care, planning and non-governmental organisations from the social field. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: A series of mailed questionnaires were used to elicit the participants' opinions and perceptions of the determinants of foreign immigrants' health inequalities. The final reply figure was 90%. Of the overall points granted to the agreed situations, 52.4% concerned aspects relating to their general living situation, 25.1% to health care and 22.4% to socio-cultural questions. CONCLUSIONS: The results show that, in addition to the health-care field, general living situation and socio-cultural questions play a fundamental part in determining foreign immigrants' health inequalities. We considered that the Delphi was a useful and rapid technique for obtaining qualitative information on the determinants of health inequalities and that it permitted us to contribute information which was complementary to other studies of inequalities which used classical health indicators.

Integrating nursing research and practice: Part II-A Delphi study of nursing practice priorities for research-based solutions.

Reading formal research reports and developing the art of critical analysis and evaluation are essential skills for nurses in practice. Here is an opportunity to begin developing these skills as Catherine Cooney, Susan Stebbings, Margaret Roxburgh, Janice Mayo, Niqui Keen, Ellen Evans and Therese Meehan report a survey done by nurses in Northland. Feedback through letters to the editor would be welcomed.
