ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
In Seine-Saint-Denis, stillbirth and infant mortality rates are markedly higher than in other French departments. Before implementing an audit on stillbirths and neonatal deaths in 2014, we carried out a Delphi consensus process with healthcare providers to generate research hypotheses. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
A Delphi process in 3 questionnaires was conducted in 2013 with 32 healthcare providers (pediatricians, obstetricians, general practitioners, midwives, social workers, psychologists, pediatric nurses) and user representatives. The first questionnaire asked open questions about why mortality rates were higher and possible solutions to remedy the situation. In subsequent questionnaires, the panel ranked factors identified in the first questionnaires by importance.RESULTS:
One hundred and thirty factors were identified from 42 pages of text responses in the first round. From these, the 75 most highly ranked were grouped into 14 main topics organized around three themes 1) more underlying health problems in the population, 2) access and organization of care, 3) the health consequences of poor socioeconomic conditions. Coordination of care, provider and patient communication, and access to care were highlighted.CONCLUSION:
The Delphi consensus process identified a wide range of hypotheses for the higher mortality in Seine-Saint-Denis which are adapted to the local context and based on the concerns of health practitioners.Palavras-chave
