Abstract   (2069 Views)
Aims: Teamwork is a necessity for triage in war by healthcare science students and providers. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of online micro-learning interdisciplinary education about war victim triage on the knowledge and practice of healthcare science students.
Materials & Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted in 2021 with a single-group pretest-posttest design. Participants were 80 male medical, nursing, and medical emergency students of Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences who were selected purposively and randomly allocated to 10 interdisciplinary WhatsApp groups. The study's intervention was online microlearning video-based education about war victim triage provided through the ten WhatsApp groups. Participants’ knowledge and practice respecting war victim triage were assessed before, immediately after, and one month after the intervention using a knowledge questionnaire and six scenarios about war victim triage practice, respectively. The SPSS 22 software was used to analyze the data through the repeated measures analysis of variance.
Findings: The repeated measures analysis of variance showed significant differences in the mean scores of knowledge and practice respecting war victim triage across the three measurement time points.
Conclusions: Web-based OMIDE improves healthcare science students’ knowledge and practice respecting war victim triage.
