Abstract Background CERTAIN (Checklist for Early Recognition and Treatment of Acute Illness and iNjury) has been shown to improve critical care process and patient outcomes in international ICUs with variable resources. Methods CERTAIN education program derived from this approach is designed, promoted, and implemented following the Logic model. Through the roadmap of the Logic model, we presented a dynamic, longitudinal implementation framework that had sufficient rigor yet offers flexibility to reach the need of the existing and emerging diversified medical education projects. Results Using the Logic model, the delivery of the CERTAIN education program is optimized to deliver relevant education content in various environments. During the COVID-19 outbreak, the implementational framework demonstrated that it could serve as an excellent template for effective response to global pandemics. Conclusions The Logical model is useful as a facilitation tool for planning and evaluating innovative education delivery and dissemination. The CERTAIN program provided an example for other continuous professional education projects.

The article describes the experience of the private further professional education establishment in integration with private medical organizations as a hi-tech clinic base. The purpose of the experience was to work out an education program of professional retraining which enables medical organization to extend the range of its services. The demand for such programs investment stems from the gap between the professional level of medical workers training at universities and the needs of hi-tech segment of cosmetology service which requires highly qualified specialists.The gap between the increasingly changing market demands and the existing higher education offer may be bridged through involvement of practicing professionals in education process.The authors consider the best Russian and foreign practices of interaction between private medical establishments and private education establishments aimed at creation Centers of Excellence on the example of Neo Clinic Tuymen. The presented model shows the competitive advantages of a professional retraining education program characterized by a big concentration of resources per student and a high value of education service. The article may be useful for the university management in Russia in developing and updating strategies and programs of practice-oriented education that will meet the requirements of regional labour markets, concrete organizations and employers and contribute to graduates’ adaptation to actual production process.

Abstract Background: Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an evidence-based approach in surgery and emergency care which aims to minimize the risk for blood loss and the need for blood replacement for each patient through a coordinated multidisciplinary care process before, during, and after surgery. In combination with blood loss, anemia is the main driver for transfusion and an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes including morbidity and mortality. Hence, identifying and correcting anemia as well as minimizing blood loss are important pillars of PBM. Evidence demonstrates that PBM significantly improves outcomes and safety while reducing cost by macroeconomic magnitudes. Despite its huge potential to improve healthcare systems, PBM is not yet adopted broadly. The aim of this study is to analyze the collective experiences of a diverse group of PBM implementors across countries reflecting different healthcare contexts and to use these experiences to develop a guidance for initiating and orchestrating PBM implementation for stakeholders from diverse professional backgrounds.Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 1-4 PBM implementors from 12 countries in Asia, Latin America, Australia, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Responses reflecting the drivers, barriers, measures, and stakeholders regarding the implementation of PBM were summarized per country, and key observations extracted. By clustering the levels of intervention for PBM implementation, a PBM implementation framework was created and populated.Results: A set of PBM implementation measures were extracted from the interviews with the implementors. Most of these measures relate to one of six levels of implementation including government, healthcare providers, funding, research, training/education, and patients/public. Essential cross-level measures are multi-stakeholder communication and collaboration.Conclusion: This implementation framework helps to decompose the complexity of PBM implementation into concrete measures on each implementation level. It provides guidance for diverse stakeholders to independently initiate and develop strategies to make PBM a national standard of care, thus closing current practice gaps and matching this unmet public health need.

The term distance education is used to describe educational initiatives designed to compensate for and diminish distance in geography or distance in time. The introduction of technology to distance education has fundamentally changed the delivery, scope, expectations, and potential of distance education practices. Distance education programs are offered at all levels, including primary, secondary, higher, and professional education. The earliest antecedents of distance education at all levels are found worldwide in programs described most commonly as correspondence study, a print-dependent approach prolific in geographic areas where distance was a formidable obstacle to education. As each new technology over the last century became more commonly available, it was adopted by educational practitioners eager to improve communication and remove barriers between students and teachers.

This professional-education program was developed in Australia. It includes a guidebook and a CD-ROM that provide interactive instruction and activities to enable the user to examine the “art of teaching.” The program uses one lesson presented by a master teacher to a class of eleven- and twelve-year-olds. The CD-ROM offers the capability to view the lesson and allows the user to observe and reflect on all facets of the lesson. The guidebook gives directions, includes professional readings, and suggests questions for discussion.
