An observational study of COVID-19, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.
Trial summary
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic required a rapid surge of healthcare capacity to face a growing number of critically ill patients. For this reason, a support reserve of physicians, including surgeons, were required to be reassigned to offer support. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Educational Interventions to Integrate Surgical Staff Within Medical Units During the COVID-19 Pandemic: EDUCOVID Cross-sectional, E-survey
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic required a rapid surge of healthcare capacity to face a growing number of critically ill patients. For this reason, a support reserve of physicians, including surgeons, were required to be reassigned to offer support. Given the time shortage for trainers and trainees, time and cost-efficient programs to gain maximal benefit from short rotations for several physicians at one time are required 8. In case of pandemics, blending face-to-face education to e-learning seems sustainable, with online resources being scalable and more cost effective than other methods 9.
Read the detailed description
The aim of this study was to realize a survey on the educational programs (hospital based or web-based), during the COVID-19 pandemic, and their impact on behavior change, satisfaction and knowledge of the target population of surgeons.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Cross sectional e-Survey on surgeons exposed to any educational interventionOther
Educational intervention was considered as any procedure or program to facilitate the acquisition of basic skills about the disease, its ramifications and treatment2,6,7:
- Education in infectious disease, including
- "pandemic" training for health personnel
- Personal protective equipment (PPE) and protection.
- Specific speed-training focusing on environmental control (decontamination area, dressing...), personal protection, hand hygiene, sample management, risky gestures, control measures.
- Intensive care education:
- mechanical ventilation
- airways management
- emergencies and cardiovascular drugs
- Intensive care monitoring systems
- Basic nurse skills
- COVID-specific clinical management
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Kirkpatrick level 3 on a 5-modalities Likert scale
The primary endpoint of the e-survey was to explore the effectiveness of educational interventions experienced by responders, considered as a whole "bundle" (and not one-by-one), among the surgeons exposed to a training program, on behavior change (Kirkpatrick level 3) in their daily role during their re-affectation within a medical COVID-unit. Behavior change represents a change in the daily role of healthcare professionals (for example, referral of patients with suspected COVID to the most appropriate screening and care pathway). For this survey, we considered subjective measures (self-assessment on a Likert scale on 5 modalities) of behavior change.
Measured: once at the time of survey
