基于科研管理人员视角的医院科研助理需求与管理现状调查及发展路径分析

Investigation on the demand and management status quo of scientific research assistants in hospitals and analysis of their development path based on the perspective of scientific research managers

目的:本研究基于三级医院科研管理人员对科研助理的需求与管理现状认知,探讨现阶段我国医院科研助理发展路径。方法:研究调查全国62位医院科研管理人员关于科研助理聘用意愿与岗位认知、准入条件与能力素养、队伍规模与效能、管理实施现状、发展影响因素与难点等方面的实际情况与看法。使用频数、百分比、评分均值进行结果描述,采用秩和检验验证科研管理人员视角下管理部门与项目团队的聘用意愿是否存在差异,分析需求与管理现状。结果:科研管理人员视角下,三级医院聘用科研助理的总体意愿强烈,岗位人员需求以本科及以上、生物医学相关专业为主。项目经费管理、设备耗材订购和诚信伦理办理相关职能需求较大。调查对象大部分认为现有科研助理聘用制度提高科研效率的效果明显,但科研助理管理办法制定率、培训率与考核率均较低。目前仍存在管理者对科研助理定位与功能认知不完全、职能与职业体系不健全、保障激励机制不完善、能力培养提升支持不足等问题。结论:现阶段应加强科研助理队伍发展的顶层设计与职业体系建设,健全管理依据与实施机制,落实保障措施,推动能力提升体系建设,构建科研助理队伍建设与医院科研管理创新相互促进的良性长效机制。

Objective This study aims to explore the possible development path of hospital research assistants in China based on the cognition of the demand and management status quo from research management personnel in tertiary hospitals.Methods 62 scientific research management personnel from all over the country were surveyed,data about their cognition and the current status of scientific research assistants,that including the willingness of employ,position cognition,eligibility and competence,quantity and efficiency,management implementation,influencing factors and difficulties in team development,were collected and analyzed.Regarding to the practical needs and management status,the results were described by frequency,percentage and average score,and the rank sum test was used to verify whether there was any difference in the employment intention between the management department and the project team in the cognition of the survey subjects.Results From the perspective of scientific research managers,there is a strong willingness at hospital level to employ the research assistant,positions require applicants with bachelor′s degree or above in medicine or other related majors.The most urgent needs are management of project funds,equipment and consumables,research integrity and ethics.The interviewees who work with research assistants think that the effect of research assistants on improving scientific research efficiency is obvious.However,the percentage of formulation of research assistants management measures is less than 40%,and the percentages of uniformly organized training and assessment are relatively low.There are still problems and challenges,such as incomplete cognition of the positioning and function,incomplete functional and vocational system,imperfect incentive mechanism and insufficient support for ability cultivation and improvement.Conclusions It′s necessary to strengthen the top-down design of the development of scientific research assistant team and the construction of career system,improve the management basis and implementation mechanism,supporting resources should be in place,and promote capacity building system in order to develop a long-term mechanism of mutual promotion between the team building of scientific research assistants and the innovation of hospital scientific research management.
