1Department of Primary Care Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Malaya, Lembah Pantai, Kuala Lumpur, 50603, Malaysia, 60 379492621.
Background:
Current e- learning evaluation focuses on learners' knowledge gain, satisfaction, perceptions, and attitudes; few assess the implementation outcomes of e- learning resources in teaching and learning.
Objective:
In this study, we used the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance) framework to systematically evaluate the implementation outcomes of reusable learning objects (RLOs) in the context of health care education.
Methods:
This study is a part of the Advancing Co-creation of RLOs to Digitise H ealthcare Curriculum (ACoRD) project, wherein we developed and implemented 23 RLOs across 3 Malaysian universities for medical, pharmacy, and biomedical curricula. Implementation and dissemination strategies were employed. Data were collected using a self-administered web-based questionnaire and Google Analytics.
Results:
Th is study report s a cumulative RLO access of 7622 users from 48 countries ( reach). Users rated RLOs as very helpful ( 1452/ 2071, 70.1%) or helpful ( 601/ 2071, 29.1 %). Pre assessments and postassessments showed a significant improvement in the knowledge score (21 RLOs, P < .05) and confidence level (17 RLOs, P < .05) (e ffectiveness). All 3 Malaysian universities adopted RLOs in the fields of professional development, primary care medicine, medicine, pediatrics, nursing, pharmacy, and biomedicine ( adoption). The percentage of users who completed RLOs ranged from 5.6% ( 10/ 179) to 8 5% ( 78/ 92), with nonbounced users (users who viewed more than one page) ranging from 16.3% ( 165/ 1014) to 8 8.5 % ( 3 70/ 4 18) ( implementation). In the 4 months following the completion of the AC oRD project, a total of 2107 users accessed RLOs ( maintenance).
Conclusions:
We systematically evaluated the implementation of e- learning resources by using the RE-AIM framework, informing future strategies to integrate e- learning innovations in real-world teaching and learning practices.

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is limited...

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care evaluation by...
Nursing Implementation
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.
