Abstract：
OBJECTIVES:To compare the effectiveness of small-group training in correct inhaler technique with self-directed Internet-based training. DESIGN:Pharmacy students were randomly allocated to 1 of 2 groups: small-group training (n = 123) or self-directed Internet-based training (n = 113). Prior to intervention delivery, all participants were given a placebo Turbuhaler and product information leaflet and received inhaler technique training based on their group. Technique was assessed following training and predictors of correct inhaler technique were examined. ASSESSMENT:There was a significant improvement in the number of participants demonstrating correct technique in both groups (small group training, 12% to 63%; p < 0.05; and Internet-based training, 9% to 59%; p < 0.05) post intervention, with no significant difference between the groups in the percent change (n = 234, p > 0.05). Increased student confidence following the intervention was a predictor for correct inhaler technique. CONCLUSIONS:Self-directed Internet-based training is as effective as small-group training in improving students' inhaler technique.
