摘要
背景:项目ECHO(社区卫生成果扩展)是一项创新计划,利用视频会议技术将卫生保健提供者与专家联系起来。该模式在农村和服务不足地区的卫生保健提供者中取得了成功,并对临床实践产生了积极影响。作为一个复制合作伙伴,ECHO爱达荷制定了方案,增加了美国爱达荷州各地保健专业人员的知识和信心。尽管ECHO模式在招募、教育和培训卫生保健提供者方面具有良好的能力,但参加ECHO项目继续教育(CE)项目的障碍仍然存在。播客的异步特性可以作为一种创新媒介来帮助解决卫生保健专业人员在访问CE时面临的障碍。ECHO爱达荷州“为痛苦做点什么”播客的开发是为了增加农村和边境提供者对CE的可及性,同时提高他们治疗和评估物质使用障碍、疼痛和行为健康状况的知识和能力。目的:本文描述了ECHO爱达荷州“Something for the Pain”播客的创建和初步评估。方法:播客包括对个人的访谈和教学讲座。这些录音的音频经过内容和长度的编辑,然后由主题专家(例如,特辑发言人)进行专业审查。目标受众包括对行为健康和物质使用障碍感兴趣的卫生保健提供者和社区成员。使用SoundCloud的RSS源、继续教育调查完成情况和iECHO来评估播客听众的指标。结果:ECHO爱达荷“Something for The Pain”播客的第一季包括14集,626分钟的CE材料。该播客系列共收到了来自爱达荷州14个不同城市的个人的2441次收听,63名医疗保健提供者收听并申请了CE学分。最大的专业群体是社会工作者(n=22;35%)。结论:我们提供的初步证据表明,播客可以为卫生保健提供者提供访问CE材料的机会。卫生保健提供者听取了ECHO爱达荷州“痛苦的东西”播客,并声称获得了CE学分。ECHO项目应考虑创建播客作为传播ECHO材料的附加平台。
Creation of the ECHO Idaho Podcast: Tutorial and Pilot Assessment.
Background: Project ECHO (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) is an innovative program that uses videoconferencing technology to connect health care providers with experts. The model has been successful in reaching health care providers in rural and underserved areas and positively impacting clinical practice. ECHO Idaho, a replication partner, has developed programming that has increased knowledge and confidence of health care professionals throughout the state of Idaho, United States. Although the ECHO model has a demonstrated ability to recruit, educate, and train health care providers, barriers to attending Project ECHO continuing education (CE) programs remain. The asynchronous nature of podcasts could be used as an innovative medium to help address barriers to CE access that health care professionals face. The ECHO Idaho "Something for the Pain" podcast was developed to increase CE accessibility to rural and frontier providers, while upscaling their knowledge of and competence to treat and assess substance use disorders, pain, and behavioral health conditions.
Objective: This paper describes the creation and preliminary assessment of the ECHO Idaho "Something for the Pain" podcast.
Methods: Podcast episodes consisted of interviews with individuals as well as didactic lectures. Audio from these recordings were edited for content and length and then professionally reviewed by subject matter experts (eg, featured episode speakers). Target audiences consisted of health care providers and community members interested in behavioral health and substance use disorders. Metrics on podcast listeners were assessed using SoundCloud's RSS feed, continuing education survey completion, and iECHO.
Results: The ECHO Idaho "Something for the Pain" podcast's inaugural season comprised 14 episodes with 626 minutes of CE material. The podcast series received a total of 2441 listens from individuals in 14 different cities across Idaho, and 63 health care providers listened and claimed CE credits. The largest professional group was social workers (n=22; 35%).
Conclusions: We provide preliminary evidence that podcasts can be used to provide health care providers with opportunities to access CE material. Health care providers listened to and claimed CE credits from the ECHO Idaho "Something for the Pain" podcast. Project ECHO programs should consider creating podcasts as an additional platform for disseminating ECHO material.
