RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To examine the effectiveness of a web-based clinical pedagogy program on nurse preceptors' clinical teaching competency, self-efficacy, and attitudes toward web-based learning in comparison to face-to-face course. BACKGROUND: Preceptorship is a dynamic educational process that requires designing, and implementing various teaching strategies, evaluation, assessment and feedback. Web-based learning has been recognized as an effective learning approach for nursing professional development. DESIGN: A prospective quasi-experimental approach with two-group pre-test and post-test repeated measures was adopted. METHODS: The web-based clinical pedagogy program was provided to the preceptors in the experimental group, while control group received the face-to-face preceptorship course. Clinical Teaching Competence Inventory (CTCI), Preceptor Self-efficacy Assessment Instrument (PSEQ), and Attitudes toward Web-based Continuing Learning Survey (AWCLS) were used to evaluate preceptors' learning outcomes. Data were collected at three time points - before, immediately after the learning program, and after 6 months of the clinical teaching experience. RESULTS: A total of 150 nurses (75 participants/group) were recruited from a tertiary hospital in Singapore from July 2018 to June 2020. The results from the repeated measures analysis of covariance showed that there was a significant interaction effect (group x time) on the overall CTCI score after adjusting for covariate (F = 5.390, p = 0.005). However, there were no significant interaction effect (group x time) on PSEQ (F = 2.693, p = 0.070) and overall AWCLS score (F = 1.341, p = 0.264) between the two groups across the three time points. CONCLUSION: The web-based clinical pedagogy program produced outcomes comparable to the face-to-face program in terms of preceptors' clinical teaching competence and self-efficacy. The innovative and cost-effective web-based clinical pedagogy program provided professional development and the flexibility to accommodate preceptors' busy work schedules. Online learning has become increasingly popular during the COVID-19 pandemic and the web-based clinical pedagogy program was implemented when face-to-face workshop was not feasible.

RESUMO

Nurse preceptors are key stakeholders in providing quality clinical education. This study aimed to explore the perspectives of nurse preceptors on a web-based clinical pedagogy program and clinical teaching. A descriptive qualitative design was adopted. The program was made accessible to the nurse preceptors who were assigned nursing students from July 2019 to June 2020. Upon completion of clinical teaching, a total of 19 nurse preceptors participated in four focus group discussions. The discussions were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim, and thematic analysis was conducted. Five themes, with 11 subthemes, emerged: (i) Undergoing the process of self-awareness and development; (ii) Mastering newly acquired skills to refine own teaching approach; (iii) Implementing consistent evaluation and constructive feedback; (iv) Dual roles and responsibilities of preceptor; and (v) Benefits and barriers of the program. This study highlighted the knowledge and skills preceptors gained through the program which gave them newfound confidence and facilitated their clinical teaching and evaluation. As the shift towards online learning progresses, web-based learning can be a useful platform for professional development of nurse preceptors.

RESUMO

Basic Cardiac Life Support and Automated External Defibrillation (BCLS+AED) refers to the skills required in resuscitating cardiac arrest casualties. On recognising cardiac arrest, the rescuer should call for '995' for Emergency Ambulance and immediately initiate chest compressions. Good-quality chest compressions are performed with arms extended, elbows locked, shoulders directly perpendicular over the casualty's chest, and the heel of the palm placed on the lower half of the sternum. The rescuer compresses hard and fast at 4-6 cm depth for adults at a compression rate of 100-120 per minute, with complete chest recoil after each compression. Two quick ventilations of 400-600 mL each can be delivered via a bag-valve-mask after every 30 chest compressions. Alternatively, a trained, able and willing rescuer can provide mouth-to-mouth ventilation. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be stopped only when the casualty wakes up, the emergency team takes over care, or when an automated external defibrillator prompts for heart rhythm analysis or delivery of a shock.

RESUMO

The Life Support Course for Nurses (LSCN) equips nurses with the resuscitation skills needed to be first responders in in-hospital cardiac arrests. Previous published articles on the LSCN were mainly focused on the development of the LSCN in Singapore, as well as nurses' confidence level, defibrillation experience and outcomes, the perceived barriers faced by nurses and the usefulness of the course. This paper highlights the importance of two key learning methodologies in the LSCN: deep learning and reflection.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Clinical nursing education provides opportunities for students to learn in multiple patient care settings, receive appropriate guidance, and foster the development of clinical competence and professionalism. Nurse preceptors guide students to integrate theory into practice, teach clinical skills, assess clinical competencies, and enhance problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Previous research has indicated that the teaching competencies of nurse preceptors can be transferred to students' clinical learning to enhance their clinical competencies. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop a clinical teaching blended learning (CTBL) program with the aid of web-based clinical pedagogy (WCP) and case-based learning for nurse preceptors and to examine the effectiveness of the CTBL program on nurse preceptors' clinical teaching competencies, self-efficacies, attitudes toward web-based learning, and blended learning outcomes. METHODS: A quasi-experimental single-group pretest and posttest design was adopted. A total of 150 nurse preceptors participated in the CTBL program, which was conducted from September 2019 to December 2019. A set of questionnaires, including the clinical teaching competence inventory, preceptor self-efficacy questionnaire, attitudes toward web-based continuing learning survey, and e-learning experience questionnaire, was used to assess the outcomes before and after the CTBL program. RESULTS: Compared with the baseline, the participants had significantly higher total mean scores and subdomain scores for clinical teaching competence (mean 129.95, SD 16.38; P<.001), self-efficacy (mean 70.40, SD 9.35; P<.001), attitudes toward web-based continuing learning (mean 84.68, SD 14.76; P<.001), and blended learning outcomes (mean 122.13, SD 14.86; P<.001) after the CTBL program. CONCLUSIONS: The CTBL program provides a comprehensive coverage of clinical teaching pedagogy and assessment strategies. The combination of the WCP and case-based approach provides a variety of learning modes to fit into the diverse learning needs of the preceptors. The CTBL program allows the preceptors to receive direct feedback from the facilitators during face-to-face sessions. Preceptors also gave feedback that the web-based workload is manageable. This study provides evidence that the CTBL program increases the clinical teaching competencies and self-efficacies of the preceptors and promotes positive attitudes toward web-based learning and better blended learning outcomes. The health care organization can consider the integration of flexible learning and intellect platforms for preceptorship education.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Registered Nurse Preceptors guide students to integrate theory into practice, assess clinical competencies, and enhance problem-solving skills. Researches have indicated that the teaching competencies of nurse preceptors can be transferred to students' clinical learning. OBJECTIVES: The aims of the study are to develop a web-based clinical pedagogy (WCP) program for Registered Nurse Preceptors and conduct pilot program evaluation. DESIGN: A three-step process was applied to integrate the theoretical framework, evidence from the systematic review, and content validity by the experts and pilot test with the Registered Nurse Preceptors in the content and technical development of the program. The WCP program has unique features including use of dashboard, interactive videos, consultation with experts, discussion forum and backend data analysis. RESULTS: A committee of six content experts evaluated the comprehensiveness, appropriateness, and relevancy of the program. The item-Content Validity Index (CVI) score ranged from 0.83 to 1.00 and the scale-CVI score was 0.87, which indicated that the WCP program had a strong content validity. Ten nurse preceptors were invited to use the WCP program. Preceptors shared that the website was easy to use and navigate. They commented that the videos in each module are beneficial for nurses to understand the real situation in the clinical setting. This feature also makes the website more interactive. Feedback from preceptors was subsequently used to further refine the program. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The WCP program is an evidence-based program that provides a comprehensive coverage on clinical teaching pedagogy and assessment strategies. The unique web-based technology and interactive features provide a platform for nurse preceptors to discuss clinical encounters with peers and consult experts. The flexible and resource-rich nature of web-based learning encourages nurses to use it for continuing education.

RESUMO

Basic Cardiac Life Support (BCLS) or cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) refers to the skills required (without use of equipment) in the resuscitation of cardiac arrest individuals. On recognising cardiac arrest, chest compressions should be initiated. Good quality compressions are with arms extended, elbows locked, shoulders directly over the casualty's chest and heel of the palm on the lower half of the sternum. The rescuer pushes hard and fast, compressing 4-6 cm deep for adults at 100-120 compressions per minute with complete chest recoil. Two quick mouth-to-mouth ventilations (each 400-600 mL tidal volume) should be delivered after every 30 chest compressions. Chest compression-only CPR is recommended for lay rescuers, dispatcher-assisted CPR and those unable or unwilling to give ventilations. CPR should be stopped when the casualty wakes up, an emergency team takes over casualty care or if an automated external defibrillator prompts for analysis of heart rhythm or delivery of shock.

RESUMO

The Life Support Course for Nurses (LSCN) equips nurses with the resuscitation skills to be first responders in in-hospital cardiac arrests. Seventeen years after the initiation of the LSCN, a confidential cross-sectional Qualtrics™ survey was conducted in May 2016 on LSCN graduands to assess the following: confidence in nurse-initiated resuscitation post-LSCN; defibrillation experience and outcomes; and perceived barriers and usefulness of the LSCN. The majority of respondents reported that the course was useful and enhanced their confidence in resuscitation. Skills retention can be enhanced by organising frequent team-based resuscitation training. Resuscitation successes should be publicised to help overcome perceived barriers.
