Abstract

Background and aims: To evaluate the improvement in acute stroke care capability among doctors and nurses at four district hospitals in Ha Giang province. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study evaluates the competency of healthcare workers in the emergency response to stroke. We used competency evaluation forms to assess doctors and nurses before and after the training. A paired T-test analysis was conducted to assess the effectiveness based on the pre- and post-training scores. Results: 186 healthcare workers from four district hospitals (81 males (43%), median age 38 (35 - 44)) participated in the training and competency evaluation. 75 doctors and 111 nurses attended. The pre-and post-training average scores were 3.6 and 6.7, respectively (p < 0.05). The post-training scores were significantly higher than the pre-training scores (p < 0.05) when we compared each participating district as well as in each group of doctors and nurses. Conclusion: The training program at four district hospitals significantly improved the acute stroke care competencies of healthcare staff based on the competency assessment test.
