Abstract

Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training is mandatory in most hospitals. Despite this, some hospital staff do not attend CPR training on a regular basis, but the barriers to training attendance are sparsely investigated. This study aimed to investigate CPR course attendance, barriers to participation, and possible initiatives to increase CPR course attendance.

Methods: Physicians from one university hospital and one regional hospital in the Central Denmark Region were included. Questionnaires were handed out at daily staff meetings at departments of internal medicine and surgery.

Results: In total, 233 physicians responded (response rate: 92%, male: 54%). Overall, 32% of physicians had not attended CPR training at the hospital. Mean (±standard deviation) time since the last CPR course participation was 17 (±3) months. Frequent barriers to attending courses included not knowing when courses are conducted (70%) and where to sign up for training (45%). The majority (60%) of physicians responded that the reason why they prioritize course participation is to be professionally updated. In contrast, 16% stated that they had sufficient CPR skills and therefore CPR training was unnecessary. Physicians stated that the following factors would improve CPR training participation: an annual day protected (no clinical work) for course attendance (72%), use of short booster sessions (49%), shorter courses combined with e-learning (51%) and shorter courses held over 2 days (46%).

Conclusion: One-third of physicians did not attend hospital CPR training at two Danish hospitals. Several barriers to course participation exist, of which course registration seems to be a crucial factor. Alternative CPR training methods may help improve training participation.

为什么医生不参加医院心肺复苏培训?
简介:心肺复苏(CPR)培训在大多数医院是强制性的。尽管如此,一些医院工作人员不定期参加心肺复苏术培训,但对参加培训的障碍进行了很少的调查。本研究旨在调查心肺复苏术课程出勤率、参与障碍,以及提高心肺复苏术课程出勤率的可能措施。方法:研究对象为丹麦中部地区一所大学医院和一所地区医院的医生。调查问卷在内科和外科的日常员工会议上分发。结果:共有233名医生参与问卷调查,其中回复率92%,男性54%。总体而言,32%的医生没有在医院接受过心肺复苏术培训。自最后一次参加CPR课程的平均(±标准差)时间为17(±3)个月。参加课程的常见障碍包括不知道课程何时进行(70%)和在哪里注册培训(45%)。大多数(60%)的医生回答说,他们优先考虑课程参与的原因是为了专业更新。相比之下,16%的人表示他们有足够的心肺复苏技能,因此心肺复苏培训是不必要的。医生表示,以下因素可以提高心肺复苏术培训的参与度:每年参加一天的课程(没有临床工作)(72%),使用短期强化课程(49%),短期课程结合电子学习(51%)和为期2天以上的短期课程(46%)。结论:丹麦两家医院三分之一的医生没有参加医院心肺复苏术培训。课程参与存在着一些障碍,其中课程注册似乎是一个至关重要的因素。其他CPR培训方法可能有助于提高培训参与度。
