Strengthening The Reporting Of Cohort Studies in Surgery (STROCSS) guidelines were developed in 2017 in order to improve the reporting quality of observational studies in surgery and updated in 2019. In order to maintain relevance and continue upholding good reporting quality among observational studies in surgery, we aimed to update STROCSS 2019 guidelines.
A STROCSS 2021 steering group was formed to come up with proposals to update STROCSS 2019 guidelines. An expert panel of researchers assessed these proposals and judged whether they should become part of STROCSS 2021 guidelines or not, through a Delphi consensus exercise.
42 people (89%) completed the DELPHI survey and hence participated in the development of STROCSS 2021 guidelines. All items received a score between 7 and 9 by greater than 70% of the participants, indicating a high level of agreement among the DELPHI group members with the proposed changes to all the items.
We present updated STROCSS 2021 guidelines to ensure ongoing good reporting quality among observational studies in surgery.
为了提高外科观察性研究的报告质量,《外科队列研究报告规范》(STROCSS)指南于 2017 年制定,并于 2019 年进行了更新。为了保持相关性并持续提高外科观察性研究的报告质量,我们旨在更新 2019 年 STROCSS 指南。
成立了一个 STROCSS 2021 指导小组,提出更新 2019 年 STROCSS 指南的建议。一个研究人员专家小组通过德尔菲共识调查评估了这些建议,并判断它们是否应成为 STROCSS 2021 指南的一部分。
42 人(89%)完成了 DELPHI 调查,因此参与了 STROCSS 2021 指南的制定。所有项目的得分均在 7 到 9 之间,超过 70%的参与者对所有项目的变更表示高度一致,表明 DELPHI 小组成员对所有项目的变更建议具有高度的共识。
我们提出了更新的 STROCSS 2021 指南,以确保外科观察性研究持续保持良好的报告质量。
