摘要

The objective of this study was to quantify the number of surgical trainees who were Advanced Trauma Life Support ( ATLS? ) trained in the Republic of Ireland and to assess waiting period to do a course, the effectiveness of the course and difficulties faced by the trainees to do such a course. In July 2000, we undertook a questionnaire based survey involving trainees in the general surgical, orthopaedic, accident and emergency and anaesthetic specialities working in 26 hospitals providing acute trauma care throughout the Irish Republic. Response rate of returned questionnaires was 48.5%. Of the respondents 34 % were ATLS? of which 52% were orthopaedic trainees, 32% were anaesthetic trainees and only 17 % were Accident and Emergency department trainees. Shortage of courses and course centres and long waiting periods, the longest being three years was identified as a cause of the low ATLS ? training numbers. Course numbers and centres have trebled since the study was undertaken hopefully addressing the issue. Introduction Advanced trauma life support (ATLS?) courses were devised by the American College of Surgeons in 1978. Participation in these training programmes is intended to help the medical staff improve the level of trauma care- in the management of polytrauma patients. The participating medical staff includes orthopaedic, general surgery, accident and emergency and anaesthetic subspecialties.All trainee doctors in acute surgical specialities and doctors who are part of the trauma team handling acute accidental emergencies should possess suitable trauma management skills. An advanced trauma life-support course, developed to train medical personnel, teaches a systematic approach to the care of the injured patient. ATLS? has become a desirable or even essential part of training for many surgeons and anaesthetists [1]. Existing studies deal with ATLS? courses that involving the junior residents at the Senior House Officer (SHO) level. Our study involved nonconsultant hospital doctors, including Senior House Officers, Registrars, and Specialist Registrars (SpR). Our aim was to survey the extent of ATLS? training in this group of doctors and to assess waiting period , the effectiveness of the course and difficulties faced by the trainees to do such a course throughout the Republic of Ireland. We also studied the demand for the course, problems obtaining study leave and funding as well as availability of places in the course. Material and Methods This study was undertaken during July 2000 in Waterford Regional Hospital. Questionnaires were sent to1008 trainee doctors in the specialities of accident and emergency, orthopaedics, surgery and anaesthesiology who held a training post in 26 hospitals providing trauma care in the Republic of Ireland. The Questionnaire is displayed in Table 1. Non-responders were contacted by telephone and electronic mails. Second-time non-responders were not contacted again.
