“…For instance, a three-hour training program was effective in improvement of electricians' CPR performance in Sweden. 20 Furthermore, Salehi et al conducted a single-group study with a quasi-experimental design and indicated the effectiveness of teaching CPR using the combination of three methods; i.e., lecture, working with a manikin, and group discussion, in the knowledge and performance of the entourages of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases. 26 Some studies have also shown improvements in school students' knowledge and performance after participating in CPR teaching programs.…”

“…15 However, evidence has indicated that trained laypeople had more confidence and tendency to do CPR 16,18,19 and showed an improved CPR quality. 20 After dispatcher guidance in an urban area in Iran, the successful out-of-hospital resuscitations were increased from 28.1% to 32% and the survival rate increased from 56.5% to 72.4%. 21 Success in doing CPR calls for the skill and competency of the people beside the patient.…”

Introduction: Cardiac arrest happening outside the hospital, specifically in rural regions that are more distant from health centers, is a crucial issue in the health of individuals in those regions. Therefore, the ability of residents in those regions to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is very important in preventing death among people. This study aimed at determining the effect of basic CPR training on the adults' knowledge and performance in rural areas. Methodology: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 92 adults from rural areas of Shouraab Kohmareh-Sorkhi in Fars province, Iran, in September and October 2018. The samples were selected and divided into two groups using the simple random method. The data were collected using a demographic information form, knowledge questionnaire, and an observational checklist of CPR performance devised by the researcher. Basic teaching of CPR for the intervention group included two hours of oral teaching using lecture and question and answer as well as two hours of practical teaching using demonstration, practice on a manikin, provision of feedback, and correction of errors. The data were entered into the SPSS statistical software, version 21 and were analyzed using descriptive statistical tests, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, independent t-test, chi-square test, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and Mann-Whitney test. Findings: The study results revealed that the intervention group's mean score of knowledge was significantly greater after the intervention (6.78±1.23) compared to that at baseline (2.78 ±1.74) and compared to the control group (3.24±1.84) (p<0.001). Additionally, the intervention group's mean score of performance was significantly greater after the intervention (8.22 ±1.65) than that before the intervention (0.8±0.77) and compared to the control group (1.17 ±0.71) (p<0.001). Conclusion: According to the study findings, the villagers' performance and knowledge could be enhanced by teaching basic CPR techniques.

“…In this study, most of participants had CPR performance scores and Compression scores above 50% at baseline while they were previously trained to CPR, suggesting that first aid management of cardiac arrest training was insufficient and that scores of untrained laypeople would be similar or worse (24). Most simulation studies included healthcare providers and did not address the infant OHCA cardiac arrest.…”

Nursery Assistants' Performance and Knowledge on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Impact of Simulation-Based Training

et al. 2020

Background: Child cardiac arrest is rare, but more frequent among infants, requiring immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Many studies have reported that simulation-based training (SBT) increased CPR performance of healthcare providers. However, the CPR performance of laypeople using basic life support remains poorly known. The aim of this study was to assess nursery assistants' (non-healthcare providers) CPR performance and knowledge, before and after SBT. Methods: The study was carried out from January to June 2018 in the city of Poitiers, France. Two teaching sessions (T1 and T2) and two evaluation sessions (E1 and E2) were performed. Performance in infant CPR on a manikin at E1 and E2 were videotaped and assessed automatically with Resusci Baby QCPR ® and a SimPad PLUS SkillReporter (QCPR Global Score and skills) and by an observer using an original CPR performance checklist (MCPR Global-Score and skills). Nursery assistant's CPR knowledge was assessed by a questionnaire at the beginning and the end of the session T1, E1, and E2. Results: Twenty-Seven nursery assistants over 30 contacted were included. There was an improvement between E1 and E2 in QCPR Global-Score (E1: 42.4 ± 23.6 vs. E2: 55.1 ± 23.7%, p = 0.032), MCPR Global-Score (E1: 50.0+11.9 vs. E2: 72.3+8.5%; p < 0.001) and theoretical knowledge with score (over 45) of 16.9+5.4 before T1 and 35.2+2.7 after E2, respectively (p < 0.001). The improvement mainly concerned QCPR and MCPR compression steps scores. MCPR Global-Score was strongly correlated to QCPR Global-Score (r = 0.61; p < 0.01) and predictive to CPR quality determined by QCPR Global-Score (AUC = 0.77; p < 0.01) with a high sensitivity and negative predictive values. Moreover, these improvements were maintained 2 months after training with no difference between scores obtained by the three groups 15, 30, or 60 days after simulation-based training session T2. Beaufils et al. SBT in CPR Nursery Assistants' Performance Conclusion: SBT could significantly improve knowledge and skills in infant CPR management by nursery assistants especially for chest compression. CPR performance checklist appeared as an interesting tool to assess CPR performance quality.

“…Simulation has evolved into a major tool within healthcare provider education and is the reference standard for teaching and evaluating resuscitation skills [ 1 – 3 ]. Given its well-documented success as an educational tool for clinicians, simulation is now more mainstream, and more non-clinicians are increasingly experiencing it for health-related purposes [ 4 , 5 ].…”

Resuscitation simulation among people who are likely to witness opioid overdose: Experiences from the SOONER Trial

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The opioid crisis is a growing public health emergency and increasing resources are being directed towards overdose education. Simulation has emerged as a novel strategy for training overdose response, yet little is known about training non-clinicians in bystander resuscitation. Understanding the perspectives of individuals who are likely to experience or witness opioid overdose is critical to ensure that emergency response is effective. The Surviving Opioid Overdose with Naloxone Education and Resuscitation (SOONER) study evaluates the effectiveness of a novel naloxone education and distribution tool among people who are non-clinicians and likely to witness opioid overdose. Participants’ resuscitation skills are evaluated using a realistic overdose simulation as the primary outcome of the trial. The purpose of our study is to describe the experience of participants with the simulation process in the SOONER study. We employed a semi-structured debriefing interview and a follow up qualitative interview to understand the experience of participants with simulation. A qualitative content analysis was performed using data from 21 participants who participated in the SOONER study. Our qualitative analysis identified 5 themes and 17 subthemes which described the experience of participants within the simulation process. These themes included realism, valuing practical experience, improving self-efficacy, gaining new perspective and bidirectional learning. Our analysis found that simulation was a positive and empowering experience for participants in the SOONER trial, most of whom are marginalized in society. Our study supports the notion that expanding simulation-based education to non-clinicians may offer an acceptable and effective way of supplementing current opioid overdose education strategies. Increasing the accessibility of simulation-based education may represent a paradigm shift whereby simulation is transformed from a primarily academic practice into a patient-based community resource.
