Abstract

Introduction: Dispatching field hospitals meeting the needs of the sufferers is the ideal response to disasters such as earthquakes. The aim of this study is determining the settings of such a field hospital. Methods: A twelve-member expert panel selected used the RAND Appropriateness. Methodology to rate scenarios derived from best current evidence, and additional comments resulted from Nominal Group and Modified-Delphi Techniques. A 9-point rating scale was used that permits the categorization of the items as appropriate, uncertain, or inappropriate. A descriptive analysis was undertaken of the final results of the panel meeting. Results: In the first round, agreement was found for 87.06 of the 85 scenarios.The second round rating, following discussion of divergent ratings, resulted in a much higher agreement among panellists, reaching 93.46 of the 107 scenarios. 72.90 of the 107 scenarios categorised in six chapters were considered appropriate, 13.89 uncertain and 11.21 inappropriate. 93.46 of items rated without disagreement, 66.36 of which rated with agreement and 27.10 were indeterminate (i.e. there were neither agreement nor disagreement), and the panellists had disagreement on 6.54 of items. Discussion: In this document we have included updated and clear recommendations for rapid access of the reader to the setting of the field hospital in earthquakes, using RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method. The Principal Tasks of Field Hospital, Staffing pattern and equipment are discussed comprehensively. On the basis of the best current evidence, the items of Principal Tasks of Field Hospital, Staffing pattern and equipment were assessed by an expert panel to be sufficient and appropriate in a field hospital..
