Abstract:
Pulmonary aspiration is a particularly problematic condition in patients in hospitals and nursing home. To promote patient safety and prevent serious complications, the nurse's role in preventing and caring for patient at high risk of pulmonary aspiration is crucial. Our team has developed an online training system on pulmonary aspiration for nurses to improve their ability to identify early risk factors, scientifically assess the risk of aspiration, and effectively intervene and manage when pulmonary aspiration occurs. This system was developed via WeChat app, the most popular social media application in China. It has four main functions, such as online training, online assessment, announcement interaction, and learning record. This online training systems offer the benefits of flexible learning time with anytime access, rich resources that are easy to update, and greater cost-effectiveness. This paper presents and discusses the development process of this system.
