Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Observational (survey)	Survey Administration	Participants complete a survey over 20 minutes.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Global perception of usefulness	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be assessed by survey question E, which has five options: very useful, useful, neither useful nor useless, useless and very useless. The main interest is the proportion of responders who select very useful and useful.
Perceived usefulness of individual items	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be assessed by survey question F 1-9. Frequency and proportion will be used to summarize each item. For responders who select neither useful nor useless, useless and very useless, additional questions about whether one item should be retained, discarded or modified will be summarized using frequency and proportion. Comments or suggestions will be collected for qualitative analysis.
Responders' self-reported professional satisfaction	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be assessed by survey question K, L1, and L3. Association between the perceived usefulness and professional satisfaction will be evaluated by Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test whichever appropriate. Association between the adherence and professional satisfaction will be evaluated by Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test whichever appropriate.
Frequency of consultation	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be assessed by survey question D, which has five options: never, once a month or less, a few times a month, a few times a week and daily. The main interest is the proportion of responders who select daily and a few times a week.
Adherence to individual items	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be assessed by survey question G 1-9. Frequency and proportion will be used to summarize each item. For responders who select neither useful nor useless, useless and very useless, additional questions about whether one item should be retained, discarded or modified will be summarized using frequency and proportion. Comments or suggestions will be collected for qualitative analysis.
Personal ideas about the handbook	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be collected by survey question I and question J. Comments and suggestions will be collected and used to aggregate opinions toward handbook improvement.
Responders' global perceptions of usefulness and adherence to the handbook during COVID-19	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be assessed by survey question M, N and O, and frequency and proportion will be used to summarize the results.
Responders' profession	through study completion, an average of 1 year	Will be summarized by survey question A, and responders' demographics will be summarized by survey question B and C. Responders' work satisfaction after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) will be examined by survey question L2 and L4. Association between the perceived usefulness and responders' profession/demographics/work satisfaction after COVID-19 will be evaluated by Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test whichever appropriate. Association between the adherence and responders' profession/demographics/work satisfaction after COVID-19 will be evaluated by Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test whichever appropriate.
