ABSTRACT
An effective prebriefing strategy is needed that can improve the learning outcomes of nurses in advanced life support education. This study aimed to identify the effects of prebriefing with online team-based learning on hospital nurses' knowledge, performance, and self-efficacy in advanced life support education. A nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design was adopted. Nurses in the experimental group (n = 26) participated in prebriefing using online team-based learning followed by self-directed learning, whereas nurses in the control group (n = 27) experienced only self-directed learning before advanced life support education. Wilcoxon signed-ranks tests were used to identify the posttest-pretest differences of the study variables in each group. Both groups showed improved knowledge, individual performance, and self-efficacy after the education. Nurses in the experimental group reported higher self-efficacy scores compared with those in the control group. There were no differences between the experimental and control groups in knowledge, individual performances, or team performance. Online team-based learning as a prebriefing modality resulted in greater improvements in self-efficacy in advanced life support education.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the EtOH extract of Cnidium monnieri (Apiaceae) furnished two hepatoprotective sesquiterpenes, torilin (1) and torilolone (2), together with a new derivative, 1-hydroxytorilin (3). Compounds 1 and 2 showed hepatoprotective effects on tacrine-induced cytotoxicity in human liver-derived Hep G2 cells. The EC50 values of compounds 1 and 2 were 20.6 +/- 1.86 (P < 0.01) and 3.6 +/- 0.1 (P < 0.01) microM, respectively. Silybin as a positive control showed an EC50 value of 69.0 +/- 3.4 microM.
