Preschool vision screening frequency after an office-based training session for primary care staff.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Although vision screening for preschool children is recommended for detecting amblyopia, many pediatric and family medicine practices do not screen preschool-aged children. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a training program for primary care clinical staff on vision screening behavior and attitudes. METHODS:All local pediatric and family medicine practices were mailed invitations for free training sessions in preliterate eye chart vision screening. The clinical support staff at each participating practice location received a single training session. The lead ancillary medical employee of each practice location was surveyed immediately before and after training, and again 4 to 6 months later, to determine the effect of a single training session on screening behavior and attitudes. RESULTS:Twenty-nine (26%) of 110 practice locations received training in vision screening. Four to 6 months after training, reported screening frequency of 3-year-olds increased, but not of other ages. The reported comfort level with screening 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds was improved 4 to 6 months after training. Most practices responded that the training was beneficial and worthwhile, but lasting impact on practice behavior for the cohort was modest. CONCLUSIONS:Direct, practical training in preliterate eye chart vision screening may increase the number of 3-year-old children screened and improve clinical support staff comfort with screening preschool children. A single training session is not sufficient in itself, however, to achieve the goal of universal preschool vision screening in the primary care setting.
