Abstrakt: | Background: Training primary care doctors and nurses to use Practical Approach to Care Kit (PACK) improved management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in a previous randomised trial. The present study examined the training effects including a second year of follow-up with expanded coverage of repeated training sessions. Methods: Using a stepped-wedge cluster randomised trial design, 48 clinics were randomly allocated either to sequence A: (1) no intervention, (2) no intervention, (3) intervention or sequence B: (1) no intervention, (2) intervention, (3) intervention, during three 12-month periods. Primary outcomes were change in treatment and spirometry ordering. Effects of any exposure to the training, and of exposure to the first and second years of training, were estimated with mixed effect logistic regression models. Results: Any exposure to training was associated with increased changes in treatment (OR adjusted for calendar time (OR) 1.29, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.64) and more spirometry ordering (OR 1.55, (95% CI 1.22 to 1.97)) in asthma patients, and with more spirometry ordering (OR 1.50 (95% CI 1.15 to 1.96)) in patients with COPD. Change in asthma treatment was more likely during the first and second year of exposure to training compared with no exposure (ORs 1.43 (95% CI 1.09 to 1.87); 1.91 (95% CI 1.21 to 3.02)), respectively. Spirometry was more likely during the first and second year of exposure in asthma patients (ORs 1.76 (95% CI 1.34 to 2.30); 2.05 (95% CI 1.32 to 3.19)) and in patients with COPD (ORs 1.57 (95% CI 1.18 to 2.10)); 1.71 (95% CI 1.08 to 2.70)). Conclusion: Extended follow-up suggested that PACK training continued to be effective in improving chronic respiratory care and that effective intervention delivery was sustainable for 2 years.
