Brief Summary:
Drug allergy is often under-recognized yet over- mistakenly diagnosed especially in Hong Kong There is also a dire shortage of allergy specialists and facilities to tackle the overwhelming drug allergy pandemic Fortunately when trained non-specialist physicians and nurses have demonstrated comparable capabilities in drug allergy evaluation compared to specialists To potentially promote and propagate the role of non-specialist physicians and nurses toward drug allergy care the investigators propose a study to investigate the impact of an intensive and focused drug allergy educational course conducted at the University of Hong Kong
Detailed Description:
Two identical didactic courses on drug allergy were designed Each course will last 12 hours and conducted over 2 consecutive days 6 hours each day All candidates will attend physically and on-site Various aspects of drug allergy with pre-set learning objectives will be taught in-person by instructors physicians or nurses specializing in drug allergy nominated by the University of Hong Kong Course materials and instructors will be identical for each course
Aims of the study Primary objective
Investigate the change in knowledge among participants of a 2-day drug allergy educational course
Investigate the change in clinical practice among participants of a 2-day drug allergy educational course
Secondary objectives
Investigate the sustained changes in knowledge if any of participants of a 2-day drug allergy educational course
Investigate the sustained changes in clinical practice if any of participants of a 2-day drug allergy educational course
Hypothesis The investigators hypothesize that candidates practicing physicians and nurses of the drug allergy course will gain knowledge on drug allergy which in turn will influence and change their clinical practice
