In 2001, a nationwide study revealed deficiencies in the emergency care of seriously ill and injured children in Vietnam. In response, a project was initiated to conduct the Advanced Paediatric Life Support course in Vietnam and ascertain whether this course would provide a practical and sustainable method of improving the knowledge and skills of medical and nursing staff in this area. After approval to use the course was secured and funding obtained, the project commenced in 2003. Key Vietnamese personnel travelled to Australia to complete the course, undertake instructor training and gain organizational experience. Teaching materials were translated, reviewed and modified to account for local diseases and clinical practices while maintaining the fundamental principles of the parent course. Commencing in March 2004, 10 courses were conducted by Australian and Vietnamese instructors, training 239 doctors and nurses from a wide variety of clinical backgrounds. Additionally, three instructor courses were conducted, training 52 new instructors. As the skill and confidence of the Vietnamese instructors grew, the number and responsibilities of the international faculty reduced. The infrastructure now exists for the course to operate in a sustainable fashion within Vietnam. We believe that this project demonstrates that the course can be successfully modified to provide teaching in paediatric emergency care in a developing country.
2001年，一项全国性研究揭示了越南在危重伤病儿童急救护理方面存在的不足。作为回应，启动了一个项目，在越南开展高级儿科生命支持课程，并确定该课程是否能提供一种切实可行且可持续的方法，以提高该领域医护人员的知识和技能。在获得使用该课程的批准并获得资金后，该项目于2003年启动。越南关键人员前往澳大利亚完成该课程，接受教员培训并积累组织经验。教学材料被翻译、审查和修改，以适应当地疾病和临床实践，同时保留母课程的基本原则。从2004年3月开始，澳大利亚和越南教员举办了10期课程，培训了来自各种临床背景的239名医生和护士。此外，还举办了3期教员课程，培训了52名新教员。随着越南教员的技能和信心不断增强，国际教员的数量和职责有所减少。现在越南已具备以可持续方式开展该课程的基础设施。我们认为，该项目表明，该课程可以成功修改，以便在发展中国家提供儿科急救护理教学。
