Patients with hip fracture are often not given adequate analgesia in the Emergency Department. Ultrasound guided femoral nerve block is an effective option but it is not commonly used due to limited experience, inadequate training and infrequent clinical exposure. We aimed to develop a workshop to bridge the current gap in the training of ultrasound guided femoral nerve block.
A 3-hour workshop was developed in accordance to guidelines for education and training in ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia. The components included an online learning module for pre-reading, as well as team-based learning and simulation practice during the session. Evaluation of the participants was performed and feedbackof the course was collected.
The workshop was conducted successfully for a total of 30 participants. All participants achieved the minimum standard required. Across all domains, the mean scores for the workshop were more than 4.7 out of 5 on the Likert scale. Participants were satisfied with the workshop and would recommend it to a colleague.
This workshop met its educational objectives and various principles of medical education were used effectively in the delivery of the content. Further research is necessary to demonstrate the impact of this educational effort on clinical practice and patient outcomes.
髋部骨折患者在急诊科通常得不到足够的镇痛。超声引导股神经阻滞是一种有效的选择，但由于经验有限、培训不足和临床接触较少，尚未广泛应用。我们旨在开发一个讲习班，以弥补超声引导股神经阻滞培训方面的现有差距。
根据超声引导区域麻醉教育和培训指南制定了一个 3 小时的讲习班。内容包括在线学习模块作为预习，以及在课程期间进行团队学习和模拟练习。对参与者进行评估，并收集课程反馈。
共有 30 名参与者成功完成了该讲习班。所有参与者均达到最低要求标准。在所有领域，参与者对讲习班的平均评分均高于 5 分制中的 4.7 分。参与者对讲习班表示满意，并会向同事推荐。
本讲习班达到了其教育目标，并在内容传递中有效地运用了医学教育的各项原则。需要进一步的研究来证明这种教育努力对临床实践和患者结局的影响。
