[Collection of data on primary care activities by sampling].

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:To choose, as part of a strategy of change in the records system, the best sampling design for obtaining data on primary care activity and to evaluate the appropriateness of introducing this design. DESIGN:An experimental study of the errors committed and the precision of four different sampling designs. A: 8 days a month at random. B: 8 consecutive days a month. C: one day in three systematically (7 days a month). D: one day in four systematically (5 days a month). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:The calculations of activity indicators obtained monthly for each of the two health centres (31 doctors in general medicine and paediatrics) were compared with the real values, which we already knew from a prior exhaustive search. Type B samples gave the worst results while D contributed the best. In the variables referring to health programmes, unacceptable errors were obtained for all of them. CONCLUSIONS:Type D sampling was selected as the most appropriate. However, the positive and negative aspects to do with the necessity for, and use of, each piece of data, the required precision, the redistribution of tasks needed and the improvement in recording acceptability, must be assessed before it is put into practice.
