Abstract

Objectives: This sequential explanatory mixed-method study aimed to explore chiropractic students' attitudes toward incorporating maintenance care (MC) focused evidence.

Methods: Attitudes towards using an evidence-based clinical protocol for maintenance care (MC), the MAINTAIN instrument, were assessed via surveys, monologue responses, dialogues, and qualitative feedback. Participants from a single chiropractic educational institution completed questionnaires evaluating their perspectives on patient-centeredness, chronic pain, and evidence incorporation. Descriptive statistics summarized quantitative data, while content analysis was used for qualitative data.

Results: 74.4% (n=419) of students participated, mostly male (57.5%), with an average GPA of 3.15 (out of a maximum of 4.0). Qualitative analysis identified the need to clarify MC terminology and factors motivating students to adopt new evidence, such as quality and alignment with healthcare beliefs.

Conclusions: This study's findings emphasize the importance of refining healthcare training strategies, including defining terminology and addressing motivators for evidence incorporation, as evidence for MC for low back pain evolves.

脊骨神经科学生对脊骨神经科维护护理新证据的动机探索：一项混合方法研究。

研究目的这项顺序解释混合方法研究旨在探讨脊骨神经科学生对纳入以循证为重点的维护性治疗（MC）的态度：方法：通过调查、独白、对话和定性反馈等方式，评估学生对使用以证据为基础的维护性治疗（MC）临床方案（MAINTAIN工具）的态度。来自一家脊骨神经医学教育机构的参与者填写了调查问卷，评估了他们对 "以患者为中心"、"慢性疼痛 "和 "证据整合 "的看法。描述性统计总结了定量数据，而内容分析则用于定性数据：74.4%（n=419）的学生参与了调查，其中大部分为男生（57.5%），平均 GPA 为 3.15（满分 4.0）。通过定性分析发现，有必要澄清MC术语和促使学生采用新证据的因素，如质量和与医疗保健信仰的一致性：本研究结果强调了随着腰背痛MC证据的不断发展，完善医疗保健培训策略的重要性，包括定义术语和解决证据采纳的激励因素。
