The purpose of this study is to develop candidate common data element (CDE) items related to clinical staff training in long-term care (LTC) homes that can be used to enable international comparative research. This paper is part of the WE-THRIVE (orldwide lements o armonize esearch n Long-Term Care Liing nvironments) group's initiative which aims to improve international academic collaboration. We followed best practices to develop CDEs by conducting a literature review of clinical staff (i.e., Regulated Nurses, Health Care Aides) training measures, and convening a subgroup of WE-THRIVE experts to review the literature review results to develop suitable CDEs. The international expert panel discussed and critically reflected on the current knowledge gaps from the literature review results. The panel proposed three candidate CDEs which focused on the and the training. These three proposed CDEs seek to facilitate international research as well as assist in policy and decision-making regarding LTC homes worldwide. This study is a critical first step to develop candidate CDE items to measure staff training internationally. Further work is required to get feedback from other researchers about the proposed CDEs, and assess the feasibility of these CDEs in high and low resourced settings.
本研究的目的是开发与长期护理（LTC）机构临床工作人员培训相关的候选通用数据元素（CDE）项目，这些项目可用于开展国际比较研究。本文是WE - THRIVE（全球长期护理生活环境研究协调要素）小组倡议的一部分，该倡议旨在改善国际学术合作。我们通过对临床工作人员（即注册护士、医疗护理员）培训措施进行文献综述，并召集WE - THRIVE专家小组审查文献综述结果以开发合适的CDE，遵循最佳实践来开发CDE。国际专家小组对文献综述结果中当前的知识差距进行了讨论和批判性反思。该小组提出了三个候选CDE，重点关注[此处缺失部分内容]和[此处缺失部分内容]培训。这三个提议的CDE旨在促进国际研究，并协助全球范围内关于LTC机构的政策制定和决策。本研究是开发用于国际衡量工作人员培训的候选CDE项目的关键第一步。还需要进一步开展工作，以获取其他研究人员对提议的CDE的反馈，并评估这些CDE在资源丰富和匮乏环境中的可行性。
