ResumoIntroduction EMPODaT’s aim was to cooperate in a higher education program of Organ Donation and Transplantation in Egypt, Lebanon and Morocco in accordance with the European Space for Higher Education guidelines. It was a TEMPUS product (an Education, Audio-visual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) program) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][16] and the consortium was constituted by 4 European Univ., 1 European Foundation and 6 beneficiary Univ. from Egypt, Lebanon and Morocco (table1). Methods Project evaluation[8] was done in 3 levels: Donation & Transplantation Diagnosis (DTD), Training[9][10] and Quality. DTD was carried out before designing the postgraduate curricula, following different adapted questionnaire methodologies and conducted in 3 parts: “Existing trainings & online feasibility”, “Specific training needs” and “Donation/Transplantation activity & university requirements”. Training (available in English and French) was designed in 1 academic year of 30 ECTS credits employing blended learning methodology[11]. Pre- and Post-training tests, self-assessing activities, and traineeship activity charts were used to evaluate the students. For Quality evaluation, assessment questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were conducted[12]. Results DTD Part I showed a lack of specific training held by Univ. in the 3 countries and good internet accessibility in the 6 Univ. Part II, answered by 444 health care students (61% male), reported 62% low knowledge on Donation and 72% on Transplantation, being donor management and surgical procedures the less known (77%; 82%). Part III detailed the current transplant/donation activity[13] (Deceased/Total kidneys transpl. 2013: Egypt 0/1800; Lebanon 10/109; Morocco 6/22)[15][16] and related figures (Num. of transpl. centres: Egypt 37; Lebanon 13; Morocco 6) in 2011-13. 90 students were trained (15 per Univ.), 39W-51M, 79 doctors (23% ICU, 22% surgeons) and 11 nurses. Significant differences were found among improvement knowledge between the countries (fig1). The main score in the project quality evaluation was 4.2 (scale 1-5) being the level of local coordinators the highest scored 4.48. Conclusion Despite the differences detected on donation & transplantation activity in the 3 countries, there was a need of specific training in all. Knowledge improvement in organ donation was greater than in transplantation topics. Morocco was the most beneficiated country obtaining better final scores albeit from lower basis. The project was overall highly appraised by students and local coordinators. Patricia Peralta Lasso. Francesc Martí. Gloria Páez. Ahmed Ali Morsy Ali. Ashraf Adel Mosharafa. Mohamed Adel Bakr.
