EVALUATION OF THE ADVANCED TRAUMA LIFE SUPPORT COURSE DESIGNED BASED ON TEAMWORK APPROACH

Year 2016, Volume: 15 Issue: 47, 0 - 0, 28.12.2016

Abstract

Background: Training of health care teams who work in prehospital medical care and in emergency units plays an important role to reduction of trauma-related deaths. The purpose of this study is to share the design method, the content and the evaluation results of an  Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) course which was developed based on the “European Trauma Course the Team Approach” course.

Methods: This study has a one-shot case study design. In the instructional design of the course, the ADDIE model was used. The course was evaluated with the participants’ feedback obtained through the survey and the test scores they obtained from the pre-test, post-test and practice exam. Participants' mean pre- and post-test scores were compared with the paired-sample t test.

Results: The evaluation of the participants’ perceptions of competence related to trauma management revealed that 39.2 % of them (n = 40) considered themselves as completely confident, 57.8 % (n = 59) as confident and 2.9 % (n = 3) as moderately confident. In the course evaluation survey, it was determined that the participants were very satisfied with the items under the following headings: the contents of the scenarios, teaching methods, educational environment, trainers, team work, leadership, situational awareness, communication, and contribution of education to the profession. The difference between the mean scores the participants obtained from the pre- and post-tests was statistically significant high (t = 26.5, p <0.00). The mean scores the participants obtained from the practice exam were also high (mean scores = 94.5; SD = 5.1).

Conclusions: The course improved the participants’ knowledge, technical, non-technical skills and scenario management knowledge. The team approach with the prescriptive ADDIE model for The ATLS course can be used as an effective training method.
