DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Palliative care represents one of the most rapidly expanding sectors of health care. Its rapid growth has been accompanied by widespread needs for training of multidisciplinary personnel to work with the unique set of health issues specific to its population of patients - not only those at end-of-life, but also patients with long- term, incurable, chronic and degenerative illnesses. Selected complementary therapies offer significant benefits for reducing suffering and improving quality of life in palliative care patients; however, there currently are no systematic educational offerings on the evidence-based application of such therapies in the palliative care setting. This project will develop the first online continuing education program for palliative care personnel in the evidence-based application of complementary therapies in the palliative care setting. The final product will consist of an interactive course with eight modules; Phase I will develop the web infrastructure for the course, and will then pilot test two modules to establish feasibility of the concept. The specific aims are as follows: Aim 1. Build a website capable of delivering an online interactive educational curriculum. Aim 2. Conduct evidence-based reviews of the literature on the application of complementary therapies to pain and dyspnea in palliative care settings. Aim 3. Incorporate the course content into a structure and form that can be effectively delivered over the website. Aim 4. Conduct peer review evaluation of content to determine fidelity of course content with available evidence. Aim 5. Recruit a multidisciplinary sample of health care personnel practicing in the field of palliative care. Aim 6. Conduct pilot testing of two modules of the program. Aim 7. Evaluate {attitudinal and} learning outcomes and user satisfaction feedback to determine feasibility of the approach. Feasibility of the approach will be determined by success in recruitment, compliance, evidence of meeting user learning objectives, and user satisfaction data. The final product to be developed is an eight- module online educational course for multidisciplinary health professionals in the evidence-based application of complementary therapies in palliative care. Commercial application will be as a continuing education program that is licensed to institutions (care facilities, hospitals, universities, colleges) as well as purchased by individual users (fee-based), with discipline-specific continuing education credits available, all administered over the internet. Impact and Innovation: This will be the first online educational program for palliative care personnel on this topic available in the US. The course will spearhead the expansion of the existing paradigm of palliative care to incorporate evidence-based integration of complementary therapies. Technological innovation includes the employment of fluid updating of content to licensees, which is a new development in online education and particularly important given the rapid rate of emergence of new data. Public health benefit: The course will aid in the improvement of quality of palliative care, benefitting potentially millions of recipients in the most rapidly expanding sector of the health care system. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Palliative care represents one of the most rapidly expanding sectors of health care. Its rapid growth has been accompanied by widespread needs for training of multidisciplinary personnel to work with the unique set of health issues specific to its population of patients - not only those at end-of-life, but also patients with long-term, incurable, chronic and degenerative illnesses. This project will develop the first online continuing education program for palliative care personnel in the evidence-based application of complementary therapies, to enhance patient care and quality of life in the palliative care setting.

描述（由申请人提供）：姑息治疗是医疗保健最快扩展的部门之一。它的快速增长伴随着对多学科人员培训的广泛需求，以与特定患者人群的独特健康问题（不仅是寿命终止的患者，而且还有长期，无法治愈，慢性和退化性疾病的患者）一起工作。选定的互补疗法为减少疼痛和改善姑息治疗患者的生活质量带来了重大好处；但是，目前尚无关于此类疗法在姑息治疗环境中基于证据的应用的系统性教育产品。该项目将在姑息治疗中基于证据的应用中制定第一个针对姑息治疗人员的在线继续教育计划。最终产品将包括一个具有八个模块的交互式课程；第一阶段将开发该课程的Web基础架构，然后将试点测试两个模块以确定该概念的可行性。具体目标如下：AIM 1。建立一个能够提供在线互动教育课程的网站。 AIM 2。关于在姑息治疗环境中互补疗法应用于疼痛和呼吸困难的文献进行基于证据的评论。目标3。将课程内容纳入可以通过网站有效交付的结构和形式。目标4。进行同行评估内容评估，以确定当前内容的保真度，并提供可用证据。目标5。在姑息治疗领域招募一个卫生保健人员的多学科样本。 AIM 6。进行该程序两个模块的试点测试。目标7。评估{态度和}学习成果和用户满意反馈，以确定方法的可行性。该方法的可行性将取决于招聘，合规性，满足用户学习目标的证据和用户满意度数据的成功确定。要开发的最终产品是一个八个模块在线教育课程，适用于多学科卫生专业人员，用于基于证据的辅助疗法在姑息治疗中的循证应用。商业应用程序将作为一项继续教育计划，该计划已获得机构（护理设施，医院，大学，大学）的许可，并由个人用户（基于费用）购买，并提供特定于纪律的继续教育学分，所有这些都可以通过互联网管理。影响力与创新：这将是美国有关此主题的第一个在线教育计划。该课程将率先扩大姑息治疗的现有范式，以结合基于证据的补充疗法的整合。技术创新包括将内容更新向被许可人的运输更新，这是在线教育方面的新发展，考虑到新数据的出现速度迅速。公共卫生益处：该课程将有助于提高姑息治疗的质量，从而使医疗保健系统最快扩展领域的数百万接收者受益。 公共卫生相关性：姑息治疗是医疗保健最快扩展的部门之一。它的迅速增长伴随着对多学科人员培训的广泛需求，以与特定于其患者人群的独特健康问题（不仅是寿命终止的患者，而且还有长期，无法治愈，慢性和退化性疾病的患者）。该项目将在互补疗法的基于证据的应用中制定第一个针对姑息治疗人员的在线继续教育计划，以增强姑息治疗环境中的患者护理和生活质量。
