Sažetak
Introduction: From April 2002- December 2009, there were 74 European Resuscitation Council (ERC) provider courses (55 Advanced Life Support-ALS and 19 European Paediatric Life Support-EPLS) in Croatia. A questionnaire has been distributed to all attendees, covering subjects: professional background, motivation, knowledge, satisfaction with courses, applicability to everyday practice, changes in attitudes. Purpose of the study: 1) Analysis of competency (knowledge and skills) of candidates in relation to their previous/basic education 2) Analysis of personal evaluation of the course quality in relation to candidates’ competency 3) Analysis of internal motivation as the most important factor that influences successful acquisition of knowledge and skills at the organised programme of continuous education. Material and Methods: Total of 1730 candidates (1328 ALS, 402 EPLS) attended. Questionnaire has been distributed by email, handed personally or has been available on the official website of the Croatian Resuscitation Council. Results: Preliminary results from 500 questionnaires collected to date show satisfactory competency of candidates in relation to their professional background, ranging from specialists and residents to nurses. Majority of candidates rated these courses with highest grades and would recommend them to other medical professionals. Higher internal motivation and satisfaction of candidates correlated well with course results. Conclusions: Based on the preliminary results from this survey, organized programme of continuous medical education in the field of reanimatology is recognised as a successful educational programme applicable to Croatian medical professionals.
