Introduction: The Delphi technique is an iterative, multi-stage
process that consists of questioning a panel of experts through a
structured group communication process to reach a consensus
on specific issues. The study is a systematic review of the
available literature in orthodontics which has utilised the Delphi
technique to seek consensus on a range of issues.
Aim: To identify and summarise the studies which have utilised
the Delphi technique as a method for gathering consensus in
the speciality field of orthodontics. The study evaluated the
various characteristics of the Delphi technique.
Materials and Methods: This systematic review followed the
methodology of a preset article inclusion and exclusion criteria
using an electronic database search using the keywords consensus,
Delphi, Delphi technique, Delphi studies, expert opinion was
conducted in March 2021. A range of electronic databases
comprising PubMed, Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE),
Google Scholar, Web of Science and Scopus were searched dated
from (January 1990 to March 2021) to identify the studies which
involved the use of Delphi in orthodontics. Following this, two
authors reviewed and scored each of the studies before finalising
a list of five studies to be included in this review.
Results: The searches revealed a total of 187 studies out of
which only five studies met the inclusion criteria and were
included in this study. Each of the five studies was assessed by
two independent assessors. The five studies involved an expert
panel from multiple health professionals involving orthodontic
specialists, maxillofacial surgeons, nurses, speech therapists,
and nutritionists. Five domains (theme, panel constitution, panel
size, number of iterations and the level at which consensus
reached) were identified and assessed in each of the five studies.
Conclusion: The study has identified and reviewed the Delphi
technique and its usage in orthodontics but has also provided
a sound description and elaboration of the various components
and characteristics of the Delphi technique in addition to
providing some correlations between expert panel size and the
number of iterations. |
