The coronavirus disease -19 has changed various aspects of education and training in all fields, and e-learning has now become the preferred mode of training and teaching. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of online training and to overcome the limitations of e-learning.
A total of 176 medical officers (MOs) and 720 community health officers (CHOs) were trained in four batches by using seven training modules with online videos and lecture series. Each batch received two days of training. A pre-test and post-test were conducted which consisted of 25 multiple-choice questions of 4 marks each. There was no negative marking. Candidates obtaining >80 marks were declared as having passed. The results of the pre-test and post-tests were compared.
There was remarkable improvement in the knowledge regarding critical care management after virtual training, as evidenced by the test results. None of the MOs scored more than 80% in the pre-test; however, 153 MOs scored more than 80% in the post-test. The average score improved from 47.82 (pre-test) to 89.05 (post-test). The difference was statically significant ( < 0.0001). Similarly, 123 CHOs scored more than 80% in the pre-test, while 378 CHOs scored more than 80% in the post-test. Improvement in average marks was also seen: 90.5 in the post-test as compared to 62.76 in the pre-test. The difference was statically significant ( < 0.0001).
Online training is beneficial for many candidates from various locations within a short period. The interactive sessions after training are also helpful, and well-designed pre- and post-tests are adequate for assessment.
新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情改变了所有领域教育与培训的各个方面，电子学习现已成为培训和教学的首选模式。本研究的目的是评估在线培训的影响，并克服电子学习的局限性。
通过使用包含在线视频和系列讲座的七个培训模块，分四批对总共176名医务人员（MO）和720名社区卫生官员（CHO）进行了培训。每批接受为期两天的培训。进行了一次预测试和一次后测试，测试由25道每题4分的多项选择题组成。不设负分。得分超过80分的考生被宣布通过。比较了预测试和后测试的结果。
虚拟培训后，重症监护管理知识有显著提高，测试结果证明了这一点。在预测试中，没有一名医务人员得分超过80%；然而，在后续测试中，有153名医务人员得分超过80%。平均分数从47.82（预测试）提高到89.05（后测试）。差异具有统计学意义（<0.0001）。同样，在预测试中，123名社区卫生官员得分超过80%，而在后续测试中，有378名社区卫生官员得分超过80%。平均分数也有提高：后测试为90.5，而预测试为62.76。差异具有统计学意义（<0.0001）。
在线培训在短时间内对来自不同地点的许多考生有益。培训后的互动环节也很有帮助，精心设计的预测试和后测试足以进行评估。
