Abstract: Objective: To develop the medication safety quality control indicators for operating room, to provide standards and evaluation of medication safety quality. Methods: Based on the evidence of medication safety of the operating room, the Donabedian structural-process-results model was adopted as the theoretical framework to preliminarily formulate the quality control indicators of medication safety in operating room. The Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of consultation among 24 experts to screen, verify and correct the indicators. Results: The response rates of the two-round consultation were 100.0%. The expert authority coefficients were 0.890 and 0.906. The Kendal coefficients were 0.246-0.329. The final indicators of medication safety quality control for operating room included 3 first-level indicators, 9 second-level indicators and 19 third-level indicators. Conclusion: The development of medication safety quality control indicators for operating room can supervise throughout the medication, which is feasible, reliable, and practical, and can provide reference for medication safety and quality evaluation and monitoring in operating room.
