The CPR Educational Program Effect of Infant CPR Immediate Remediation for Child Care Teachers

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of infant CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) immediate remediation[LAB2]. Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent comparison group pre-post test design. Participants were 73 child care teachers in J district in Seoul. The experimental group (35) received immediate remediation with video learning [LAB3]for infant CPR education and the control group (38) received video learning only. We investigated confidence of infant CPR and tested single-rescuer infant CPR performance depending on a checklist (8 items). Data were collected before and right after to evaluate the confidence of infant CPR and before, right after and 2 weeks after the education to evaluate the skill performance and final acceptance. Results: There was a significant increase in confidence of infant CPR in the experimental group and control group. There was a statistically significant difference in the degree of skill performance between groups according to the amount time (F=10.58, p<.001). The degree of skill performance was tested two weeks after the education and immediate remediation was 5.35 times more effective compared to the video image demonstration (B=1.677, p<.001). Conclusion: The findings provide the necessity of immediate remediation education of infant CPR to increase confidence and skill performance ability.

The Effects of the 5-step Method for Infant Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Training on Nursing Students' Knowledge, Attitude, and Performance Ability

“…However, even in this infant CPR training program that applied the 5-step method, performance ability decreased by about 11% at 6 months after training. A previous study applying immediate remediation to infant CPR education for childcare teachers found that their performance ability decreased by about 24% at 6 months after training [6]. Despite differences in trainees and methods, this study and the previous one [6] obtained the same basic result: the effects of education decreased with time.…”

“…A previous study applying immediate remediation to infant CPR education for childcare teachers found that their performance ability decreased by about 24% at 6 months after training [6]. Despite differences in trainees and methods, this study and the previous one [6] obtained the same basic result: the effects of education decreased with time. This finding therefore demonstrates the need for educational refreshers, at least for childcare teachers, healthcare providers, and preservice healthcare providers, such as nursing and medical students, on a timely basis using a differentiated method.…”

“…Hypothesis 1, that the experimental group receiving infant CPR training with the 5-step method would show higher scores for knowledge, attitudes, and performance ability than the control group at 1 week after the training program, was partially supported (Table 3). No statistically significant difference was found in the mean knowledge of infant CPR: the experimental group scored 6 Hypothesis 2, that the experimental group receiving infant CPR training with the 5-step method would maintain higher scores for knowledge, attitudes, and performance ability than the control group at 6 months after the training program, indicating the sustainability (the variation between 1 week and 6 months after the training program) of its effects, was partially supported (Table 4). No statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups was found in the sustainability of changes in knowledge of infant CPR, which differed significantly by the 3 measurement times (before the training program and 1 week and 6 months after the training program) (F=309.34, p<.001), with no significant interaction between the experimental and control groups and the 3 measurement times.…”

“…This method can be applied easily, and conveys knowledge of CPR, causes positive changes in attitude, and improves performance ability; however, it has limitations related to sustainability [5]. Additional methods include the immediate remediation method [6,7] and a video self-instruction program [8] for infant and child CPR. However, the effects of training differ depending on the subject and the educational method, and it is necessary to apply various educational methods for nursing students to determine which is most suitable.…”

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

“…However, some studies have shown that knowledge of first aid management was a predictor of parents' self-efficacy in infant CPR skills ( 25 , 26 ). The present study showed the benefits of SBT combined with didactics corresponding to mastery training as previously reported ( 27 ) and demonstrated the ability of SBT to improve CPR performance even in lay people such as nursery assistants ( 13 , 21 , 28 – 30 ). This improvement can be observed both with automatically assessment using QCPR device or by observer assessment using CPR checklist.…”
