摘要

过程评价（PE）通过评估复杂干预的实施情况以及与结果密切相关的背景影响因素等，帮助充分解释干预的效果，是随机对照试验的重要方法学补充，但尚未在针刺临床研究中充分应用。本研究通过梳理中英文文献，总结了PE的主要方法学框架，以及在针刺临床研究中的应用现状；在此基础上结合针刺干预和实施的特点，初步探讨在针刺临床研究中开展PE的角度以及针刺干预实施过程中的相关影响因素；随后从规划、设计和实施、分析及报告等多个阶段着手，就关键研究内容提出初步的建议，为今后开展针刺临床研究的过程评价提供可借鉴的思路，为全面评价和解释针刺干预的疗效探索新的方法和路径。

Abstract

As an important supplementary approach to randomized controlled trial

process evaluation(PE) aims to evaluate implementation of complex intervention and contextual factors associated with variation in outcomes

in order to explain the observed results in a comprehensive manner. However

PE has not been well applied in the clinical research of acupuncture. Based on existing literature

this paper summarized the main methodological frameworks of PE

as well as the status-quo of its application in acupuncture research. Meanwhile

it explored the research perspectives and implementation factors that were potentially relevant to PE in parallel with acupuncture trials. In addition

the paper put forward preliminary considerations on key contents corresponding to each step during the development of PE for acupuncture trials

in order to provide useful reference and innovative pathway for future studies that strive for comprehensive evaluation of acupuncture's effect.
