Summary

Web-based modules effectively improved athletic trainers' knowledge of evidence-based practice (EBP). Further research is needed to determine if this increased knowledge translates to improved clinical decision-making.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Health Professions Education

Background:

  • Evidence-based practice (EBP) is crucial in athletic training.
  • Web-based modules are utilized to educate athletic trainers (ATs) on EBP concepts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of an educational intervention on enhancing ATs' knowledge of EBP.

Main Methods:

  • A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 164 athletic trainers.
  • Participants were assigned to either a control group or an experimental group accessing 10 web-based EBP modules for 4 weeks.
  • Knowledge was assessed using a 60-item multiple-choice test before and after the intervention.

Main Results:

  • The experimental group showed significantly higher post-intervention knowledge scores compared to the control group.

  • While both groups had similar pre-intervention scores, the experimental group demonstrated a significant increase from pre- to post-assessment.
  • No significant knowledge change was observed in the control group.
  • Conclusions:

    • A 10-module web-based educational intervention effectively increased athletic trainers' knowledge of foundational EBP concepts.
    • It remains undetermined if this enhanced knowledge influences daily clinical practice.
    • Future studies should investigate the link between EBP knowledge and clinical decision-making in ATs.
