Uncontrolled hemorrhage is the primary preventable cause of death following trauma. Stop the Bleed training exists to promote identification and basic treatment of life-threatening bleeding in the prehospital or community setting. Limited qualitative research is available on participant evaluation of hemorrhage control training for laypersons.
To evaluate the experience and satisfaction with Stop the Bleed training among lay community members in an urban public school setting.
Three group interviews were conducted with public high school personnel (faculty and staff) who received Stop the Bleed training. Personnel were asked to evaluate the training and provide suggestions for improvement. Responses were digitally recorded and transcribed verbatim. Content analysis for common themes was performed using NVivo.
A total of eight participants were interviewed. Participants expressed satisfaction with hands-on training and dissatisfaction with crowded and rushed training conditions. Major themes included: (1) skill acquisition, retention, and decay, (2) training format and setting, and (3) use of simulation.
Current Stop the Bleed training is considered satisfactory among public school educators. Suggestions for improvement include annual retraining programs and simulation-enhanced training opportunities.
创伤后，无法控制的出血是导致死亡的首要可预防原因。“停止出血”培训旨在促进在院前或社区环境中识别和基本治疗危及生命的出血。目前仅有有限的定性研究可用于评估非专业人员的出血控制培训。
评估在城市公立学校环境中，普通社区成员对“停止出血”培训的体验和满意度。
对接受过“停止出血”培训的公立高中人员（教师和工作人员）进行了 3 次小组访谈。要求人员评估培训并提供改进建议。使用 NVivo 对常见主题进行了内容分析。
共有 8 名参与者接受了访谈。参与者对实践培训表示满意，对拥挤和仓促的培训条件表示不满。主要主题包括：（1）技能获取、保留和衰减，（2）培训形式和环境，以及（3）模拟的使用。
公立学校教育工作者认为目前的“停止出血”培训令人满意。改进建议包括年度再培训计划和模拟增强培训机会。
