摘要

背景尽管精神障碍的发病率很高，并给人们带来了沉重的负担，但其诊断和治疗仍然严重不足。在塞内加尔等中低收入国家，将心理健康服务纳入初级保健是缩小治疗差距的最可行策略。本研究旨在评估心理健康电子学习项目对塞内加尔专职医疗人员和医护人员的知识、态度和实践的影响。方法使用一个包含 12 个互动模块的电子学习平台对 322 名专职医疗人员和医护人员进行培训。我们通过比较电子学习模块前后收集的数据，评估了他们在知识、态度和实践方面的变化，以及对知识和自我评估诊断和管理病人能力的满意度。此外，还通过培训后调查收集了对该计划各组成部分满意度的定性反馈。此外，与知识满意度和诊断及管理患者能力相关的分数也有显著提高（分别为 +77.0 % 和 +75.0 %），超过了知识、态度和实践分数的提高幅度（分别为 +19.2 %、+11.1 % 和 +15.0 %）。尽管只有少数参与者完成了全部 12 个模块，但心理健康电子学习项目在参与者的知识、态度和实践方面都取得了积极的成果。它还增强了学员的信心，学员们认为这是一次非常积极的体验。

Evaluating the effects of mental health e-learning on the knowledge, attitudes and practices of allied and healthcare professionals in Senegal

Background

Despite the widespread prevalence and substantial burden of mental disorders, they remain significantly underdiagnosed and undertreated. In low- and middle-income countries like Senegal, integrating mental health services into primary care represents the most feasible strategy to bridge the treatment gap. This study aimed to assess the effects of a mental health e-learning program on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of allied and healthcare professionals in Senegal.

Methods

An e-learning platform including 12 interactive modules was used to train 322 allied and healthcare professionals. We evaluated changes in knowledge, attitudes, and practices, as well as in satisfaction with knowledge and in self-assessed ability to diagnose and manage patients, by comparing data collected before and after the e-learning modules. Qualitative feedback on the satisfaction with the various components of the program was also collected via a post-training survey.

Outcomes

Knowledge, attitudes and practices scores increased significantly for all modules. Additionally, scores related to satisfaction with knowledge and ability to diagnose and manage patients showed significant improvements (+77.0 % and +75.0 %, respectively), surpassing the gains observed in knowledge, attitudes, and practices scores (+19.2 %, +11.1 % and +15.0 %, respectively). Mean scores regarding participants' satisfaction with the various elements of the program ranged from 8.1 to 9.1, out of a maximum of 10.

Conclusion

Although only a limited number of participants completed all 12 modules, the mental health e-learning program showed positive results on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of participants. It also increased their confidence and was perceived as a very positive experience by learners.
