Background The study aimed to develop consensus on the components of health education of home-based negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) for patients with chronic wounds. Methods A Delphi method was used to achieve consensus on the components of health education and 75% agreement and coefficient of variation (CV) <0.25 were used as cutoff. Sixteen experts were recruited purposefully to finish this study. Results Two rounds of consultation were implemented. Consensus was achieved on 36 of the 42 statements. The final agreed list of statements represented three domains: health education before carrying out home-based NPWT, health education for the treatment day of NPWT at hospital and health education for NPWT at home. Conclusions This study was the first attempt to develop consensus on the comprehensive components of health education of home-based NPWT for patients with chronic wounds. According to the established framework and components of health education, wound professionals can safely and effectively implement health education of home-based NPWT for patients with chronic wounds and improve their self-care ability and treatment experience at home.

慢性伤口患者家庭负压伤口治疗健康教育共识：一项改良的德尔菲研究

背景 本研究旨在就慢性伤口患者的家庭负压伤口治疗 (NPWT) 的健康教育组成部分达成共识。方法 采用德尔菲法就健康教育的组成部分达成共识，以75%的一致性和变异系数（CV）<0.25作为截止值。特意招募了 16 名专家来完成这项研究。结果进行了两轮咨询。42 份声明中有 36 份达成共识。最终商定的声明清单代表三个领域：实施家庭 NPWT 之前的健康教育、医院 NPWT 治疗日的健康教育和家庭 NPWT 的健康教育。结论 本研究首次尝试就慢性伤口患者的家庭 NPWT 健康教育的综合组成部分达成共识。根据既定的健康教育框架和组成部分，伤口专业人员可以安全有效地为慢性伤口患者实施家庭NPWT健康教育，提高他们的自我护理能力和在家治疗经验。
