The EDAIC is a diploma of the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC). which is obtained after passing two a written MCQ-based (Part1) and a structured oral (part2) examinationIn 2011, a formative On-Line Assessment (OLA) was introduced to help candidates to prepare for EDAIC Part1 examination (EDAIC-I). This retrospective observational study evaluated the results of the OLA and its impact on the EDAIC-1 between 2013 and 2019.
After obtaining the authorisation from the ESAIC Examinations Committee, all the results of candidates registered to OLA and/or EDAIC-I between 2013 and 2019 were included. The total number of registrations and the results were analysed and compared for both.
Over 17,000 candidates (17,401) sat any of the written exams of the EDAIC. The overall pass-rate for the EDAIC-1 was 68.95%. The OLA score increased significantly with the number of attempts for Paper A (Basic Science) (p=0.006). Overall success of the EDAIC-I was higher in candidates who took the OLA before (72.9% versus 68.3%; OR: 1.25; 95% CI [1.12; 1.39]; p<0.001). Candidates who failed in their first attempt for EDAIC-I were more likely to sit the exam again if they had performed the OLA before (OR: 1.396, 95% CI [1.237; 1.574]; p<0.001).
The OLA was associated with an improvement of the results in basic science and success rate in the EDAIC-I.
EDAIC 是欧洲麻醉学和重症监护学会（ESAIC）的文凭，通过两次书面基于多项选择题（第 1 部分）和结构化口试（第 2 部分）考试后获得。2011 年，引入了形成性在线评估（OLA），以帮助考生准备 EDAIC 第 1 部分考试（EDAIC-I）。本回顾性观察研究评估了 OLA 的结果及其对 2013 年至 2019 年 EDAIC-1 的影响。
在获得 ESAIC 考试委员会的授权后，将 2013 年至 2019 年期间注册 OLA 和/或 EDAIC-I 的所有考生的成绩纳入分析。分析并比较了两者的总注册人数和成绩。
超过 17000 名考生（17401 名）参加了 EDAIC 的任何书面考试。EDAIC-1 的总体通过率为 68.95%。OLA 分数随着 Paper A（基础科学）的尝试次数显著增加（p=0.006）。参加过 OLA 的考生 EDAIC-I 总体成功率更高（72.9%比 68.3%；OR：1.25；95%CI[1.12；1.39]；p<0.001）。首次 EDAIC-I 考试不及格的考生，如果之前参加过 OLA，则更有可能再次参加考试（OR：1.396，95%CI[1.237；1.574]；p<0.001）。
OLA 与基础科学成绩的提高和 EDAIC-I 成功率的提高相关。
