“…Woudenberg (1991) suggests two to ten as an appropriate number of rounds, while Hallowell and Gambatese, (2010) note that most peer-reviewed Delphi studies maintain the number of rounds to be between two and six. Indeed, Dalkey et al, 1970 suggest that the Delphi results are most accurate after round two and become less accurate as a result of additional rounds. Therefore, in this research the target was three rounds of feedback, with a caveat that this would be extended if responses failed to converge.…”

This paper explores and rationalises the process of servitization adoption across manufacturing firms. A Delphi research methodology has been applied to capture evidence and opinion from 33 senior executives, in 28 different sized organisations, from a cross section of British industry. The findings focus on five areas: (1) servitization and advanced services, (2) transformation: stimulus, drivers and organisational change, (3) impact on the customer and manufacturer, (4) enablers and inhibitors and (5) potential for business and the economy. Six findings are presented and collectively these contribute to our understanding of the broader change management processes that transform manufacturers to compete through advanced services.

“…Se trata de una técnica estructurada de consenso profesional a distancia, variante del procedimiento original desarrollado por Dalkey et al 13,14 , que mantiene sus principales ventajas (interacción controlada entre los miembros del panel, oportunidad de reflexionar y reconsiderar la opinión propia y validación estadística del consenso logrado) frente a otras alternativas técnicas, y resuelve algunos de sus principales inconvenientes (sesgos de opinión) 15 . Su ejecución requirió 2 rondas sucesivas de una encuesta estructurada cumplimentada a través de una plataforma online.…”

ResumenObjetivos: El objetivo de este estudio fue desarrollar un consenso multidisciplinar mediante el sistema Delphi para establecer recomendaciones clínicas en torno al manejo de la dislipidemia cuando hay una alteración del metabolismo de la glucosa, y la importancia de los factores que se valoran al prescribir y realizar el seguimiento del tratamiento con estatinas. Métodos: El cuestionario formulado por el comité científico incluyó 4 bloques de preguntas alrededor del paciente dislipidémico con alteración del metabolismo de la glucosa, de los que aquí presentaremos los resultados de los 2 primeros: a) manejo de la dislipidemia; y b) factores que se valoran al prescribir y realizar el seguimiento del tratamiento con estatinas. Resultados: Con un porcentaje superior al 90% se consensuó entre los 497 expertos participantes en el estudio que debía realizarse un cribado de dislipidemia a pacientes con diabetes o prediabetes, y/o con enfermedad cardiovascular o con antecedentes familiares y/u obesidad abdominal y/o hipertensos. En presencia de dislipidemia existe un elevado grado de acuerdo en que la estatina es el tratamiento hipolipidemiante de elección, en cambiarla cuando aparecen efectos secundarios, en la elección de dosis y tipo de estatina según la concentración de colesterol LDL basal del paciente y el objetivo a alcanzar, así como la posible interacción con otros fármacos. * Autor para correspondencia.

“…The rationale for using the Delphi method to achieve consensus has been previously published [14]: the Delphi method is a way of collecting opinions from experts -"a Delphi panel" -and is widely applied in various fields, including healthcare, to obtain consensus or to provide recommendations on a well-defined and specified topic. Although often referred to as a 'panel', the experts provide their opinions freely, individually and anonymously and this method provides a quick and economic way to contact a large group of experts.…”

Background: Management of Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is contentious, particularly regarding enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). We report results of a Delphi consensus panel on AFD management. Methods: A survey to gauge consensus among AFD experts was distributed online and responses were analysed. Statements on: 1) diagnosis; 2) when starting ERT; 3) management of ERT infusion and adverse reactions; and 4) follow-up/monitoring response to therapy and progression of disease were included. Responses without consensus were discussed with an enlarged panel and modified to reach consensus. Results: 15 experts responded to the survey. After plenary discussion among the enlarged panel, consensus was reached on most statements. Key points were the use of a target organ biopsy to show Gb3 deposits in symptomatic women with negative molecular analysis, the need for ERT in symptomatic women and in all patients with persistent signs and symptoms ± organ damage. It was agreed to assess vital signs before ERT administration and use a 0.2 μL filter on infusion to reduce the risk of adverse reactions, that serum should be drawn prior to the first infusion for anti-agalsidase antibody analysis to have a baseline value if a subsequent adverse reaction appears, and that pre-medication is required in those with prior infusion reactions. Holter ECG monitoring, cardiac and brain MRI, renal parameters, and abdominal ultrasound were considered important for the assessment of disease progression and response at ERT. Conclusions: This consensus supplies guidance to healthcare providers on best practice in the management of patients with AFD and indicates a need for more guidance.
