“…The knowledge gain could be due to the usage of the pocket versions of the dementia guideline that was provided or could be an indicator for a possible ceiling effect, because we used the questionnaire three times in the intervention groups and two times in the control group. The latter seems rather unlikely as no ceiling effect was observed during the IDA trial performed about one year before the WIDA trial [34,35]. It seems improbable that the learning effect by completion of the knowledge test is higher than the one due to the intervention because the study participants received no feedback after the test and the period between the assessment dates was rather long.…”

“…This pilot test resulted in data on the level of difficulty of the test and on possible ceiling effects, the latter being important as we planned to use the same test three times [25]. After a few corrections we used the knowledge test to evaluate 132 GPs during the dementia management initiative in general medicine (IDA) [34,35]. …”

“…The comparison of two different training groups displayed a difference of mean values of 3.1 ± 2.1 (p < 0.001). In both cases, this resulted in an effect size of 1.5 (Cohen's d) [34,35]. However, an effect size of 1.5 appeared to be too optimistic.…”

Knowledge transfer for the management of dementia: a cluster-randomised trial of blended learning in general practice

BackgroundThe implementation of new medical knowledge into general practice is a complex process. Blended learning may offer an effective and efficient educational intervention to reduce the knowledge-to-practice gap. The aim of this study was to compare knowledge acquisition about dementia management between a blended learning approach using online modules in addition to quality circles (QCs) and QCs alone.MethodsIn this cluster-randomised trial with QCs as clusters and general practitioners (GPs) as participants, 389 GPs from 26 QCs in the western part of Germany were invited to participate. Data on the GPs' knowledge were obtained at three points in time by means of a questionnaire survey. Primary outcome was the knowledge gain before and after the interventions. A subgroup analysis of the users of the online modules was performed.Results166 GPs were available for analysis and filled out a knowledge test at least two times. A significant increase of knowledge was found in both groups that indicated positive learning effects of both approaches. However, there was no significant difference between the groups. A subgroup analysis of the GPs who self-reported that they had actually used the online modules showed that they had a significant increase in their knowledge scores.ConclusionA blended learning approach was not superior to a QCs approach for improving knowledge about dementia management. However, a subgroup of GPs who were motivated to actually use the online modules had a gain in knowledge.Trial registrationCurrent Controlled Trials ISRCTN36550981.

Background: Thus far important findings regarding the dementia syndrome have been implemented into patients' medical care only inadequately. A professional training accounting for both, general practitioners' (GP) needs and learning preferences as well as care-relevant aspects could be a major step towards improving medical care. In the WIDA-study, entitled "Knowledge translation on dementia in general practice" two different training concepts are developed, implemented and evaluated. Both concepts are building on an evidence-based, GP-related dementia guideline and communicate the guideline's essential insights.
