There is growing interest in mind-body skills (MBS) education and online interprofessional elective MBS training for health professionals. We conducted this study to understand a) the demand among different health professionals for an online MBS course; b) engagement with different MBS topics; and c) planned behavior changes.
We examined registrations from May 1 through August 31, 2014 for a new online MBS elective, analyzing the percentage of registrants who engaged with one or more of 12 modules by September 30, 2014. We also reviewed written comments about planned behavior change.
The 693 registrants included physicians, nurses, social workers, dietitians, psychologists, and others. The two most popular topics were "Introduction: to Stress, Resilience, and Relaxation Response" and "Autogenic Training". Half of registrants (57%) engaged with at least one module and 9% completed all 12 modules within the study period. Nearly all (90%) of those who completed evaluations planned to use the technique they learned for themselves, introduce it to patients, or both.
Online elective MBS training attracts diverse health professionals and leads to plans for personal and professional behavior change. Additional research is necessary to understand the impact of different amounts and kinds of MBS training on professionals' resilience, burnout, and quality of care.
人们对身心技能(MBS)教育以及针对卫生专业人员的在线跨专业 MBS 培训越来越感兴趣。我们开展此项研究旨在了解:a)不同卫生专业人员对在线 MBS 课程的需求;b)参与不同 MBS 主题的情况;以及 c)计划中的行为改变。
我们对 2014 年 5 月 1 日至 8 月 31 日期间一门新的在线 MBS 选修课程的注册情况进行了分析,评估了截至 2014 年 9 月 30 日,有多少注册者参与了 12 个模块中的一个或多个模块。我们还对有关计划中的行为改变的书面意见进行了回顾。
共有 693 名注册者,包括医生、护士、社会工作者、营养师、心理学家和其他专业人员。最受欢迎的两个主题是“介绍:压力、韧性和放松反应”和“自生训练”。有一半的注册者(57%)参与了至少一个模块,9%的注册者在研究期间完成了全部 12 个模块。几乎所有(90%)完成评估的人都计划将他们所学的技术用于自身,或将其介绍给患者,或两者兼而有之。
在线选修 MBS 培训吸引了来自不同领域的卫生专业人员,并促使他们计划进行个人和专业行为的改变。需要开展更多研究来了解不同数量和类型的 MBS 培训对专业人员的韧性、倦怠和护理质量的影响。
