“…The percentage of correct answers for the intervention and control groups was 69% and 60% respectively, which can be compared to previous studies showing 51–59% for non-respiratory nurses and 60–61% for respiratory nurses. 6 , 31 , 32 The healthcare professionals included in the present study thus had a similar, or slightly higher, level of COPD-specific knowledge compared those of previous studies. In a previous study, an intensive and interactive two-hour face-to-face education session increased the COPD-specific knowledge of nurses in different healthcare settings by 19 percentage points.…”

Background Lack of routines and competence among healthcare professionals have been reported as barriers to COPD management in long-term care. Online education could be used as a strategy to make COPD education more accessible. Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate a digital COPD education program for healthcare professionals in long-term care regarding feasibility, knowledge and working procedures. Methods A randomized controlled feasibility trial with a convergent mixed methods design was conducted. Two municipalities in Sweden were randomized to intervention (n=20) or control (n=17). The intervention was a digital COPD education program accessible for three months. Data was collected through questionnaires on COPD-specific knowledge, conceptual knowledge, feasibility and usage of the COPD Web platform. Repeated individual interviews using a semi-structured interview guide was also performed. Quantitative and qualitative findings were merged using a mixed methods design. Results The digital COPD education program appears feasible based on the expressed satisfaction of the healthcare workers and their reports that it supported them in their work. Across questionnaires, objective COPD-specific knowledge increased by 14 to 16 percentage points in the intervention group compared to 0 to 6 percentage points in the control group (p=0.001). The objective increase in COPD-specific knowledge was also captured in the interviews, where a perceived increase in knowledge led to increased security and focus on COPD management. Few changes in working procedures were expressed, but participants felt that attention was raised regarding COPD and the importance of preventive healthcare services. In addition, increased knowledge of healthcare services provided by other involved professions was emphasized, leading to discussions with other professions in relation to COPD management. Conclusion A digital COPD education program is feasible and can increase the COPD-specific knowledge of healthcare professionals in long-term care, leading to increased focus on COPD-related issues. More comprehensive measures, including organizational changes, might be needed to change working procedures.

Background: Little is known about community nurses’ knowledge of breathlessness and its management in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Aim: To explore the community registered nurses’ knowledge of COPD and the strategies that they use to manage breathlessness in people with COPD. Methods: A cross-sectional survey study of community registered nurses was conducted using the 65-item Bristol COPD Knowledge Questionnaire and an open-ended item to outline breathlessness strategies. Findings: A total of 59 nurses participated. The total mean Bristol COPD Knowledge Questionnaire Score was 43. The breathlessness category was the lowest scoring category. There were three themes that synthesised: the community nurse’s role in monitoring self-management of medications to relieve breathlessness; the use of non-pharmacological strategies to relieve breathlessness; the nursing skills used to monitor breathlessness in people with COPD.

Introducción: el cuestionario Bristol COPD Knowledge Questionnaire (BCKQ) presenta elementos detallados de los síntomas, tratamiento, exacerbaciones, entre otros, que lo hacen una herramienta completa para evaluar el conocimiento de la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC). En la actualidad no se cuenta con una versión en español colombiano del instrumento. Objetivo: describir el proceso realizado para traducir y adaptar culturalmente el cuestionario BCKQ al español colombiano. Método: el proceso se llevó a cabo en siete pasos: preparación, traducción inglés a español, reunión de síntesis, retrotraducción, revisión de retrotraducción, consulta con expertos e informantes y revisión final del cuestionario. Resultados: se obtuvo una versión en español del cuestionario Bristol de conocimientos de EPOC. Se requirió consulta con expertos temáticos y del lenguaje para resolver dudas en el proceso de traducción. La adaptación cultural tuvo en cuenta alcanzar la equivalencia conceptual, semántica y de ítem de todos los aspectos evaluados en el cuestionario. Conclusiones: en los procesos de traducción y adaptación cultural se deben seguir pasos propuestos en guías para traducción y adaptación, incluyendo la consulta a profesionales del lenguaje, expertos temáticos y documentos oficiales que faciliten lograr una versión de fácil comprensión en función del contexto de aplicación del instrumento.
