Use of Real-Time Interactive Cloud-Based Workshops in Training for Trauma Nurses

Trauma training for nurses is essential for quality trauma care. Whereas traditional offline workshops face spatiotemporal limitations, online training models offer a necessary evolution in the information era.

A total of 276 trauma nurses from tertiary hospitals in Hubei Province, participating in the China Trauma Care Training-Nurse, were divided into groups participating in a real-time interactive cloud-based workshop (n = 144) and a traditional offline workshop (n = 132) to compare the effectiveness of training and participant satisfaction.

No significant differences were found in demographic characteristics, theoretical and practical scores, core competences, teaching atmosphere, learning efficiency, and overall satisfaction (p > .05). However, the nurses in the real-time interactive cloud-based workshop group had higher satisfaction with the teaching format and design (p < .01).

The real-time interactive cloud-based workshop sparked interest in learning, created a new learning atmosphere, and achieved equivalent teaching effectiveness and recognition compared with a traditional offline workshop.
