Abstract

Objectives: To understand how e-learning modules affect health care providers' (HCP) confidence in managing emotional distress among adolescents hospitalized for eating disorders (EDs).

Methods: Paediatric HCPs completed e-modules outlining approaches to managing emotional distress in adolescents with EDs. Participants completed premodule and postmodule mixed method surveys. Results were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Wilcoxon signed-rank test and content analysis.

Results: Sixteen participants completed surveys. Participants reported lacking confidence when caring for adolescents with EDs. Participants rarely (1/15) received training on meal support or distress management. After module completion, there was a significant increase in perceived confidence in managing distress (r = 0.16, P = 0.005), meal support (r = 0.11, P = 0.002) and caring for patients (r = 0.12, P = 0.034).

Conclusion: Results of this study support that e-modules are perceived as an effective method of education for providers caring for adolescents with EDs. This pilot data can be used to develop emotional distress e-learning across care locations and disciplines.

护理人员培训：饮食失调和管理的失调。

目的：了解电子学习模块如何影响医疗保健提供者（HCP）管理因饮食失调（EDs）住院的青少年情绪困扰的信心。方法：儿科HCPs完成了电子模块，概述了处理青少年ed情绪困扰的方法。参与者完成了模块前和模块后的混合方法调查。采用描述性统计、Wilcoxon sign -rank检验和内容分析对结果进行分析。结果：16名参与者完成了调查。参与者报告说，在照顾患有急症的青少年时缺乏信心。参与者很少（1/15）接受膳食支持或痛苦管理方面的培训。模块完成后，在处理痛苦（r = 0.16, P = 0.005），膳食支持（r = 0.11, P = 0.002）和照顾患者（r = 0.12, P = 0.034）方面的感知信心显著增加。结论：本研究结果支持电子模组是照顾青少年急症的有效教育方法。这些试点数据可用于开发跨护理地点和学科的情绪困扰电子学习。
