Background: Differences in management and outcomes of extremely preterm infants have been reported across European countries. Implementation of standardized guidelines and interventions within existing neonatal care facilities can improve outcomes of extremely preterm infants. This study evaluated whether a multifactorial educational training (MET) course in Vienna focusing on the management of extremely preterm infants had an impact on the management of extremely preterm infants in Central-Eastern European (CEE) countries.Methods: Physicians and nurses from different hospitals in CEE countries participated in a two-day MET in Vienna, Austria with theoretical lectures, bedside teaching, and simulation trainings. In order to evaluate the benefit of the workshops, participants had to complete pre- and post-workshop questionnaires, as well as follow-up questionnaires three and twelve months after the MET.Results: 162 participants from 15 CEE countries completed the two-day MET at our department. Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) was only used by 39% (63/162) of the participants. After the MET, 80% (122/152) were planning to introduce LISA, and 66% (101/152) were planning to introduce regular simulation training, which was statistically significantly increased three and twelve months after the MET. Thirty-six percent and 57% of the participants self-reported improved outcomes three and twelve months after the MET, respectively.Conclusion: Our standardized training in Vienna promoted the implementation of different perinatal concepts including postnatal respiratory management using LISA as well as regular simulation trainings at the participants' home departments. Moreover, our MET contributed to dissemination of guidelines, promoted best-practice, and improved self-reported outcomes. |
