Résumé
The aim of this study was to test and validate a new hospital Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) training using MACSIM The original MCI training format called MACSIM-PEMAF (Piano di Emergenza per il Massiccio Afflusso di Feriti, i.e., hospital disaster plan for massive influx of casualties) was developed for the Italian Society for Trauma and Emergency Surgery (SICUT) in 2016. It uses MACSIM MACSIM-PEMAF was tested over 7 courses, with a total of 258 participants. Pre- and post-course questionnaires showed a significant improvement for hospital staff in self-reported perceptions of knowledge and skills in MCI management. In total, on a 1-10 scale, all the staff increased their competencies from a value of 4.4 ± 2.5 to 7.5 ± 1.9 (p < 0.001). MACSIM-PEMAF demonstrated efficacy in fulfilling the requirements of Italian law for PEMAF implementation, testing local resources and resilience, as well as increasing the self-reported perception of the hospital staff ability to respond to a MCI.
