L’e-learning interactif comme outil de développement professionnel continu : évaluation de la participation à un programme de formation au bon usage des antibiotiques dans un service d’urgences

Abstract

To assess the participation in an interactive e-learning, promoting a decreased use of 3rd generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones for lower respiratory tract infections, in the emergency department. Methods: The e-learning consisted of a 16-min slide show, one-page take-home messages, 10 optional and interactive multiple choice tests on the theory of antibacterial therapy, and 20 interactive multiple choice tests based on clinical vignettes. The training was available for physicians of the emergency department for 14 weeks. The participation in the e-learning was defined by the response to every multiple choice test based on clinical vignettes. The participation rate of emergency physicians was satisfactory. The impact of this e-learning on clinical skills has to be demonstrated.
