Resumen
Introduction: Medication errors are common and cause financial distress and costs
that can be avoided. Mitigation of the occurrence of adverse drug events is addressed
as a priority on the World Health Organization (WHO) policy agenda, which
recommends including patient safety knowledge in health professions' curricula and
lifelong education as measures to reduce risks and avoid harm to patients. In this
context, a curricular component was developed on safety in the medication process in
a virtual learning environment for the health professions.
Aim: To evaluate the consistency, quality and effects of a distance education
intervention, structured by open educational resources, to improve knowledge about
safe medication in health professionals and students.
Method: A study with an uncontrolled quasi-experimental design with the development
and evaluation of a massive open online course (MOOC) in Moodle platform, with a
workload of 30 hours. Two evaluation questionnaires were applied, respectively, one
of satisfaction with six questions and knowledge tests (pre and post) containing seven
multiple choice questions. Results: The module was made made available in the AVASUS - Virtual Learning
Environment of the Brazilian Unified Health System, in February 2018, being offered
to professionals and students in the health area. Of the 2,256 participants enrolled,
731 (64.7%) were included for the evaluation of the reaction and learning, answering
the satisfaction questionnaire and the tests (pre and post). The questionnaire used for
satisfaction assessment presented Cronbach's alpha of 0.8, which showed a good
internal consistency. The satisfaction evaluation presented a median of 1.0, that is,
100% of the score, demonstrating that the method and resources used in the course
were well evaluated as an educational strategy. Regarding the level of learning, after
the application of the pre- and post-tests, the increase in grades from 8.2 to 8.9 (p
<0.05) was observed. The relative improvement was approximately 40%, which
demonstrated significant learning of participants. Pharmacy was the professional
category that presented better performance in the tests, with a relative improvement of
approximately 65%, (p <0.05). Conclusions: The strategy used in this MOOC, with the use of open educational
resources, proved to be effective for teaching patient safety in the medication process
at the levels of satisfaction and learning.
