“…Generally, MCDA research methods can be divided into three categories: value measurement models, ranking models and goal programming models. The common ranking methods of MCDA include simple additive weighting (SAW) method [20], TOPSIS method [21], preference ranking organization method for the enrichment of evaluations (PROMETHEE) method [22], analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method [23], artificial neural networks (ANN) method [24], and RSR method [25].…”

“…With the joint support and efforts of the majority of scholars, the RSR method has been widely used in the comprehensive evaluation of multiple indicators in the field of medical health and others [39]. Wu et al [25] conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the medical service efficiency of TCM hospitals based on the RSR method. Chen et al [40] analyzed the influence of China's national standards based on the non-integer rank sum ratio method.…”

In recent years, in the context of China’s continuous medical and health reforms, the health status of Chinese women and children has been significantly improved through the continuous efforts of staff at all levels of maternal and child health care institutions. Many indicators in maternal health care have improved significantly, but the speed and magnitude of changes have varied. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dynamic changes in China’s maternal health status from 2004 to 2018, in order to determine whether China’s medical and health reform measures in recent years have improved maternal health. A total of 6 evaluation indicators from the data of China Health Statistics Yearbook 2019 were selected. Then, based on the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDA) methodology, the entropy weighted technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS), entropy weighted rank-sum ratio (RSR) method and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation were employed in this study. In addition, sensitivity analysis was engaged to validate the stability and accuracy of the achieved results. The study results shows the ranking values of various methods were not exactly the same, but the overall trend was consistent. Overall, the maternal health care in China improved from 2004 to 2018 year by year, of which the top four were ranked from 2015 to 2018, and relatively poor from 2004 to 2006. This means that the policies and measures implemented in China’s medical and health reform in the past few decades have effectively promoted China’s maternal health care, and this will also provide a theoretical basis for future decisions to promote maternal health care.

Child health is an important public health issue in China and the Chinese government always attached great importance to child health care. With the implementation of a series of medical and health reforms in China in recent decades, the status of child health improved year by year. Objectives: This study aims to comprehensively evaluate dynamic changes in child health care status from 2000 to 2020 and determine whether the policies and measures implemented in the medical and health reforms effectively promoted the development of child health care in China. Methods: A total of six indicators were selected from the China Health Statistics Yearbook. Based on the multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) algorithm, three different evaluation methods were applied in the study, which are the weighted technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) method, the weighted rank-sum ratio (RSR) method, and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE). Each indicator's weight was calculated by the entropy weight methods objectively. The sensitivity analysis was conducted to validate the stability and accuracy of the rank results. Results: The results indicated that the rank values of each year’s child health care calculated by the different evaluation methods were not exactly the same, but the overall trend is consistent which is that child health care in China improved year by year from 2000 to 2020. The top 5 were ranked from 2016-2020 and the bottom 5 were ranked from 2000-2004. Conclusions: The results indicated that the policies and measures implemented in the medical and health reforms have effectively promoted the development of child health care in China in the past few decades, providing a scientific theoretical basis for future policy-making to promote child health care.
