Diagnosing and Discussing Sexual Abuse: A Scoping Review on Training Methods for Health Care Professionals.

Sexual abuse is a health issue with many consequences. Recognizing and discussing past sexual abuse has proven to be challenging for health care professionals. To improve overall quality of health care for sexual abuse victims, health care professionals need to be properly trained. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of training methods for health care professionals and to report on their effectiveness. A scoping review was conducted. A broad search was executed in six databases in December 2022. Study selection was performed by two independent reviewers, followed by quality assessment and data extraction. After screening of titles and abstracts and later full-text assessment for quality appraisal, seven articles were selected, consisting mostly of non-randomized trials, performed among a total of 1299 health care professionals. All studies were assessed to be of moderate to poor quality. The participants attended training courses with a wide variety of durations, settings, formats and methods. The outcomes showed improvements in self-perceived or measured knowledge, skills and confidence to discuss sexual violence. Changes in clinical practice were scarcely investigated. Training courses were most effective when a mix of didactic passive methods, such as lectures and videos, and active participatory strategies, such as discussions and roleplay, were applied. Timely iteration to reinforce retention of gained knowledge and skills also contributed to effectiveness. Participants most enjoyed incorporating opportunities for receiving feedback in small settings and sharing personal experiences. This scoping review summarizes on how to effectively train health care professionals. Flaws and difficulties in measuring the effectiveness of training courses were discussed. Recognition and discussion of past sexual abuse by health care providers can be effectively trained using an alternating mix of multiple active and passive training methods with room for feedback and personal experiences.

The effect of CPR educational package on knowledge and performance of nurses working in intensive care units: A review study.

ABSTRACTBecause nurses are present at the bedside of patients with cardiopulmonary arrest at the earliest opportunity, they should be sufficiently skilled in performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Since 1980s, several studies have been performed on the skill of CPR. These studies showed the effect of the presence of trained people on the outcome of resuscitation, so the results of one of these studies indicated that the presence of a more skilled person can have a dramatic effect on the outcome of resuscitation. Researchers believe that each training leads to learning, but the depth and stability of learning are different in various teaching methods. Recent Studies have examined the effectiveness of various educational programs in creating sustainable learning. One of the most common methods for teaching CPR is the workshop method, which has been used in nursing since 1941. Considering the importance of the subject and the need to study the effect of training courses on the level of knowledge and CPR performance of health care professionals, especially nurses, the present study aimed to review the effect of training package on knowledge and CPR performance of nurses working in intensive care units (ICU). A review of the literature showed that the level of knowledge and performance of nurses about CPR increased significantly after training compared to before training. However, most nurses perform CPR based on old protocols, it is necessary to express these changes during retraining courses. In addition, due to the decrease in the level of knowledge and skills, it is necessary to repeat these courses overtime.

The utility of Conversation Analysis versus Roter's Interaction Analysis System for studying communication in pharmacy settings: a scoping review.

To compare the usefulness of the Roter Interaction Analysis System with Conversation Analysis (CA) for studying dynamic patient-pharmacist interactions within pharmacy practice. A scoping review was undertaken to identify all studies using Roter's method or CA to investigate patient-pharmacist interactions. The studies were then compared and contrasted for their methodological advantages and disadvantages. In total, 31 studies met the inclusion criteria. Roter's method is effective in briefly describing patient-pharmacist interactions and can be used to measure the effect of training courses without consuming too much time. CA, although a time-consuming undertaking, looks at very specific features and the sequence of conversations including the dynamics of two-way interactions and can therefore be used to identify the source of conflict or misunderstandings. A flowchart showing the usefulness of both methods is suggested to help other researchers select the appropriate method(s) for their own research. Although both methods are effective for investigating patient-pharmacist interactions independently, using them sequentially could enable researchers to firstly identify how to make improvements (via CA), design relevant training and then investigate the impact of such training (via Roter's method) to enrich communications research.

The Normative Gap in International Organizations Law

This article aims to inventorize, discuss and analyze the normative output of the WHO, and aims to do so not in terms of ‘binding’ versus ‘non-binding’ instruments or ‘hard’ law versus ‘soft’ law, but in terms of the epistemic authority exercised by and through the WHO. This broader focus allows for a discussion not just of treaties and resolutions, but also of the normative effect of training courses produced by the WHO, or such documents as the World Health Reports. In the background resides the idea that there is a disjuncture between the authority exercised by international organizations, and the tools lawyers have readily available to evaluate such authority: the normative gap of the title. The article enjoins lawyers broaden their repertoire, as precisely lawyers would be well-equipped to address epistemic authority.

Evaluation of Skill Assessment After Hysteroscopy Training Curriculum a designed

Background: To evaluate a standard latex hysteroscopy model training course on gynecologists’ surgical skills. Methods: 74 gynecologists who attended to hysteroscopy training courses of Training Centre, Tehran University, 2013 to 2015 were investigated. Theoretical information of trainees were obtained at the beginning, at the end and 6 months after the course by filling up a reliabile and valid questionnaire. and its subjective and objective impact on their surgical skills and satisfaction were evaluated. Results: 87.84% of participants were satisfied by the curriculum and for most of them, virtual uteruses were felt realistic. After 6 months, subject impact of curriculum was 77.03%. But, 60.81% of gynecologists hardly could perform hysteroscopy, which was mostly due to lack of technology (53.22%)(Harders, 2006 #11). Objective assessment of surgical skills was done for those who could perform hysteroscopy. Of them 58.7% had experienced a significant increase in their surgical skills (p=0.004). Correlation of subjective and objective impact of curriculum was low (r=0.43), (p=0.003). Conclusion: Hysteroscopy training program can improve gynecologists’ hysteroscopic skills. The only index which is significantly correlated with the subjective impact of these courses is the number of previous operations. Also in Iran, because of lacking hysteroscopy equipment in most hospitals, the effect of training courses decreases after a while. So we recommend to train hysteroscopy in all medical universities and equip all hospitals with hysteroscope. Also we suggest training courses for all gynecologists and repeted it every some years.
