Given the prevalence and morbidity associated with delirium, there is a need for effective and efficient institutional approaches to delirium training in health care settings. Novel education methods, specifically the "flipped classroom" (FC) and "train-the-trainer" (TTT), have the potential to address these delirium training gaps. This study evaluates the effect of a TTT FC interprofessional delirium training program on participants' perceived ability to manage delirium, delirium knowledge, and clinicians' delirium assessment behaviors.
FC Delirium TTT sessions were implemented in a large four-hospital network and consisted of presession online work and a 3-hour in-session component. The 156 TTT interprofessional participants who attended the sessions (ie, trainers) were expected to then deliver delirium training to their patient care units. Delirium care self-efficacy and knowledge test scores were measured before, after, and 6 months after the training session. Clinician delirium assessment rates were measured by chart audits before and 3 months after trainer's implementation of delirium training sessions.
Delirium knowledge test scores (7.8 ± 1.6 versus 9.7 ± 1.2, P < .001) and delirium care self-efficacy were significantly higher immediately after the TTT session compared with those of presession and these differences remained significant at 6-month after the TTT session. Trainer sessions significantly improved clinician delirium assessment rates from 53% for pretraining to 66% for posttraining.
Our data suggest that a TTT FC delirium training approach can improve participants' perceived delirium care skills and confidence, and delirium knowledge up to 6 months after the session. This approach provides a model for implementing hospitalwide delirium education that can change delirium assessment behavior while minimizing time and personnel requirements.
鉴于谵妄的患病率和发病率,医疗保健机构需要有效且高效的谵妄培训方法。新型教育方法,特别是“翻转课堂”(FC)和“培训培训师”(TTT),有可能弥补这些谵妄培训差距。本研究评估了TTT FC跨专业谵妄培训计划对参与者感知的谵妄管理能力、谵妄知识以及临床医生谵妄评估行为的影响。
FC谵妄TTT课程在一个大型的四所医院网络中实施,包括课前在线学习和3小时的课堂学习部分。参加课程的156名TTT跨专业参与者(即培训师)随后要为其患者护理单元开展谵妄培训。在培训课程之前、之后以及之后6个月测量谵妄护理自我效能感和知识测试分数。通过图表审核在培训师实施谵妄培训课程之前和之后3个月测量临床医生的谵妄评估率。
与课前相比,TTT课程结束后立即,谵妄知识测试分数(7.8±1.6对9.7±1.2,P<.001)和谵妄护理自我效能感显著更高,并且这些差异在TTT课程之后6个月仍然显著。培训师课程显著提高了临床医生的谵妄评估率,从培训前的53%提高到培训后的66%。
我们的数据表明,TTT FC谵妄培训方法可以提高参与者感知的谵妄护理技能和信心,以及谵妄知识,并且在课程结束后长达6个月内有效。这种方法提供了一种在全院实施谵妄教育的模式,该模式可以改变谵妄评估行为,同时将时间和人员需求降至最低。
