Summary:碩士 === 中國醫藥學院 === 醫務管理研究所 === 86 === Providing the highest quality of health care and controlling the health care expenditures is in a dilemma; as a result, we ought to keep on making more effort on the balance between the two sides. It plays growing role on health care because clinical practice guideline( CPG ) has significant effect on evaluating and maintaining the quality of health , effectively managing the utilization of health care resources, and assisting physicians to making clinical decisions. Hence, the objectives of this study ar This study primarily adopts the spirit of "qualitative study" to collect CPG-related data by using document analysis, and to realize the developing process of the CPGs by subjective data analysis. In the analysis of case study, we use the first edition of the breast cancer CPG developed by the hospital in 1997 to evaluate the relationship between medical outcome and patient''s compliance with CPG. The data came from the breast cancer patient treated by the study hospital in 1990 to 1996. According to pati There are two major findings of the study. First, according to document analysis, we can conclude the key point of developing CPG. There are topic selection, developing method, drafting document, evaluating guideline, disseminating and implementing guideline. Second, according to the result of Chi-square test, the mortality rate of compliant group is lower than not-compliant group''s in any pathological stage of breast cancer; however, the result doesn''t identify significant association. In survival analy According to the study, there are two conclusions of the study. First, there are five steps for developing CPG: topic selection, developing method, drafting document, evaluating guideline, disseminating and implementing guideline. Second, the result of case study shows that patient''s compliance with CPG treatment will reduce mortality rate and recurrent rate; in other word, CPG implementation will improve outcome of health care.
