Prescribing quality indicators – Scoping review and eDelphi study
We evaluate the validity of prescribing quality indicators and their applicability in the Nordic healthcare context using systematic review and Delphi method.
The research will proceed in two steps:
Prescribing quality indicators applicable to Nordic register data : A scoping review.
The aim is to systematically identify quality indicators (QIs) applicable for population-level assessment and benchmark of outpatient prescribing across and within countries and regions, applicable using the Nordic, relatively comparable register data.
Validation of register-based quality indicators towards safe and effective pharmacotherapy in the Nordic countries: An eDelphi study
The aim of the eDelphi study is to select, following an expert-based consensus process, a set of relevant, valid, and actionable register-based indicators and their definitions that provide a credible and comprehensive comparison of prescribing quality across and within the Nordic countries.
