Improving intersectoral collaboration between formal healthcare workers and traditional bonesetters in resource-limited settings: evaluation of a pilot collaborative orthopaedic trauma course in rural Tanzania

This pilot training was an interventional study within a larger line of research, called 'Building Bridges for Broken Bones', in which we explore the current background of extremity fracture management in rural Tanzania, as well as the potential role for intersectoral collaboration between formal healthcare and traditional bonesetters. This concerns all data generated for the training, which was published in the journal BMC Medical Education, under the title "Improving intersectoral collaboration between formal healthcare workers and traditional bonesetters in resource-limited settings: evaluation of a pilot collaborative orthopaedic trauma course in rural Tanzania". It contains the study protocol, the informed consent form in English & Swahili, the knowledge test used, the interview transcripts and coding, as well as the Rstudio code to analyze and visualize the test data.
