Snippet: INTRODUCTION: Every year, 1/10,000 children experiences a foodâ€anaphylactic reaction. Most of these events, including attackâ€related deaths, may happen during the school hours.

Document: INTRODUCTION: Every year, 1/10,000 children experiences a foodâ€anaphylactic reaction. Most of these events, including attackâ€related deaths, may happen during the school hours. In the current study, we assessed the influence of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the schoolâ€staff's education on food allergy and anaphylaxis (FAA). METHODS: The target population of this intervention was nonâ€university teaching centers from the local Regional Education Council, including both state and private institutions. The digital intervention was supported by the freeâ€ofâ€charge and openâ€source learningâ€management Aulatic Educational Platform. Structured questionnaires were developed to evaluate the educators' knowledge, feelings, and selfâ€efficacy on FAA, in addition to a satisfaction and quality survey of the training program. RESULTS: A total of 1748 schoolâ€educators were virtually enrolled from May 2016 to June 2020 in one of the 8â€week course editions, with 80.6% of attendees successfully completing the full training. All scores concerning schoolâ€staff's basic knowledge and selfâ€efficacy on FAA significantly improved after the educational intervention, reaching a high level of satisfaction among participants (98.5%) over the 4â€year educational program. CONCLUSION: Our results highlighted the effectiveness of a focused eâ€learning activity to improve teachers and school caretakers in the management of food allergic scholars and anaphylactic reactions during the school hours. The use of ICTs tools should become an integrated part of curricular frameworks in nonâ€university education, leading to a better care of FAA school children.
