BACKGROUND Training and equipping law enforcement officers (LEOs) with naloxone to reverse overdoses is one national preventive strategy to reduce overdose deaths. Web-based interventions can offer convenience, flexibility of use, and can be readily disseminated. OBJECTIVES This paper describes our community-academic partnership in developing and evaluating a web-based naloxone training for LEOs. METHODS Using a community-engaged approach, we created a web-based training (www.overdoseaction.org) and conducted a pilot feasibility test using surveys and individual interviews with ten LEOs. RESULTS The median time to complete the web-based naloxone training, including the pre- and post-tests, was 45 minutes (range, 37-80 minutes). A significant difference in the pretest and post-test scores of overdose knowledge was observed. The LEOs found the training helpful in responding to overdoses and sustained their attention. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the feasibility of a web-based naloxone training for LEOs that can be easily disseminated and alternative to in-person trainings.

针对执法人员的基于网络的纳洛酮培训:试点可行性研究。

背景技术 为执法人员 (LEO) 提供纳洛酮培训和装备以扭转服药过量现象是减少服药过量死亡的一项国家预防战略。基于网络的干预措施使用方便、灵活,并且易于传播。目标 本文描述了我们在开发和评估针对 LEO 的基于网络的纳洛酮培训方面的社区学术合作伙伴关系。方法 采用社区参与的方法,我们创建了一个基于网络的培训 (www.overdoseaction.org),并通过调查和对 10 名 LEO 进行个人访谈进行了试点可行性测试。结果 完成基于网络的纳洛酮培训(包括前测试和后测试)的中位时间为 45 分钟(范围为 37-80 分钟)。观察到过量用药知识的前测和后测分数存在显着差异。LEO 发现培训有助于应对服药过量并保持他们的注意力。结论 这项研究证明了针对 LEO 进行基于网络的纳洛酮培训的可行性,该培训可以轻松传播并替代现场培训。
