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

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training program that applied the 5-step method on the knowledge, attitudes, and performance ability of nursing students in terms of enhancement and sustainability. Methods: Sixty-one nursing students (28 in the experimental group and 33 in the control group) from D city participated in this study. Data were collected from April 25 to December 15, 2016. The experimental group and control group received infant CPR education using the 5-step method and the traditional method, respectively. The outcome variables were measured 3 times (pretest and posttest at 1 week and 6 months after training) Results: There were significant differences in attitude (t=2.68, p=.009) and performance ability (t=4.56, p<.001) between the groups at 1 week after training, as well as in sustained performance ability at 6 months after training (F=6.76, p=.012). Conclusion: The 5-step method of infant CPR training was effective for improving performance ability in a sustained manner and promoting a positive attitude. Therefore, it is recommended that nursing students, as infant CPR novices, receive training using this effective method.

Pedagogical Framework Versus Traditional Method on Knowledge and Self-Efficacy of Nursing Students Regarding Neonatal Resuscitation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

“…Since many factors including theory, clinical rotation, practice, and personal experience have influenced nursing student's knowledge and selfefficacy in real-life exposure to emergency pediatrics. Yet, the addition of innovative, evidence-based teaching strategies is crucial to optimize learning outcomes 17 . Therefore, the current study aims to compare the effectiveness of diverse strategies under LSSPDM pedagogy on knowledge, and self-efficacy of nursing students regarding neonatal resuscitation in a resource-limited setting.…”

“…The sample size was calculated using the OpenEpi software 17 and the minimum sample size was 24 participants, having an 80% power at α = 0.05. After adding a 20% dropout rate the final sample size was 36 and this sample size was exceeded to 72 (36 in each group).…”

Efficacy of pedagogical framework in neonatal resuscitation skill learning in a resource-limited setting: a randomized controlled trial

“…The sample size was calculated using the mean and standard deviation of skill values from a previously published study [ 17 ]. The calculated sample size was 24 using the OpenEpi software having an 80% power at α = 0.05.…”

“…This sample size was small to perform the statistical test with good efficacy. So, 30 in each group were taken and after adding a 20% dropout rate [ 17 ] the final sample size was 72 (36 in each group). The list of all nursing students of the 3rd and 4th year of professional training was developed and the participants were recruited through stratified sampling by year of education (3rd or 4th year).…”

Conhecimentos dos estudantes de enfermagem sobre suporte básico de vida

“…Revista de Enfermagem Referência 2021, Série V, nº7: e20086 DOI: 10.12707/RV20086 Introdução A prestação de cuidados de enfermagem é uma atividade que requer um nível de exigência elevado, pelo que, atualmente, a metodologia de ensino inovadora é uma das mais aplicadas, com recurso à simulação clínica, de forma a fomentar a interação entre os conhecimentos prévios do estudante e os novos conhecimentos adquiridos, conduzindo a uma maior estabilidade em termos cognitivos (Kim et al, 2016). Através da simulação clínica, frequentemente utilizada em suporte básico de vida (SBV), os estudantes de enfermagem consolidam e integram os conhecimentos teóricos com a prática clínica, fortalecendo as suas competências técnicas (por exemplo, compressões e ventilações) e não técnicas (raciocínio clínico, pensamento crítico e julgamento clínico; Erlam et al, 2017;Kappes-Ramirez, 2018;Kim & Ahn, 2019;Woda et al, 2017). Tendo em conta que a equipa de enfermagem é o grupo profissional que deteta primeiramente uma situação de paragem cardiorrespiratória (PCR) na maioria das ocorrências, surge a necessidade de estudar: Qual é o nível dos conhecimentos teóricos dos estudantes de enfermagem da região centro de Portugal sobre SBV?…”
