“…Therefore, the evaluation of chest compression and ventilation depended on the subjective judgment and sensations of the instructor, and there is a limit to the evaluation of CPR and accurate and consistent feedback. Although it is difficult to conduct training in various scenarios, the recently introduced high-performance mannequin is developing into a form that can accurately record the parameters and numbers of chest compressions and ventilations related for standardized CPR [ 22 ]. Previous studies recommend using a device that records values such as chest compression depth and speed and provides immediate feedback [ 23 , 24 ].…”

(1) Background: The purposes of this study were to develop a physical fitness evaluation program for new firefighters, to investigate whether there is a quality difference in performing CPR for cardiac arrest patients according to physical strength, and to provide basic data to improve CPR quality. (2) Methods: The subjects of this study were fire trainees who were appointed as firefighters for the first time in G province from 3 March 2021 to 25 June 2021. The age of the subjects was 25–29 years old, and their experience of working as a firefighter was less than three months. According to the purposes of the study, the researcher composed the Physical Fitness Evaluation Program, including the physical fitness evaluation method and steps, and requested a content expert group to modify and supplement the ‘physical fitness assessment program’. The subjects were divided into four groups according to their levels of physical strength, and CPR was performed for 50 min in groups of two. A high-end Resuscitation Anne Simulator (Laeadal, Norway) mannequin was used to evaluate the quality of CPR. (3) Results: When comparing the difference in CPR quality, there were statistically significant differences in the number of chest compressions and compression depth, but all groups met the CPR guidelines. In the case of this study, it is thought that high-quality CPR could be performed because the subjects’ average age was low and they continued to exercise to improve their physical strength for their role. (4) Conclusions: It was concluded that the fitness level of new firefighters confirmed by this study was sufficient for general high-quality CPR. In addition, for high-quality CPR, continuous management is required by developing a continuous CPR education and physical training program for all firefighters.

“…Table 2 also shows that all respondents had never received CPR training before and had never performed CPR directly on a victim, meaning that the CPR training using a CPR pillow was quite good in transferring knowledge to respondents. Low-fidelity manikins help teach CPR sequentially but fall short of imparting the standard of chest compressions as recommended by the AHA (American Heart Association) (26). However, studies have indicated that low-fidelity resuscitation simulation sessions may establish better muscle memory and reinforce skills more effectively than high-fidelity simulations (26) Ultimately, all CPR training for laypeople is to increase the number of CPR bystanders.…”

This will also increase the likelihood that OHCA victims will be given immediate and timely CPR properly and correctly.…”

Introduction: Even though CPR training has begun to be widely carried out, the problem of readiness of CPR training participants to carry out CPR during emergencies still needs to improve. One of the problems is the implementation of unsustainable training. There is a need to modify CPR training at a low cost so that movement can be sustainable, hoping to increase readiness. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the influence of CPR Training use of CPR Pillow on the scout member readiness in response to Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) in Lubuklinggau City, South Sumatera, Indonesia. Method: This quantitative study was conducted with a quasi-experimental approach. A total of 72 participants participated in this study, of which 36 were categorized into the experimental group and attended three CPR Training in two months by simulation method using CPR Pillow. The remaining 36 participants were in the control group and received classical CPR training using leaflets. Both the experimental and control groups were subjected to pretest and post-testing. The researcher developed a questionnaire to assess the readiness, deliberate the implementation, and conduct modifications from other studies. The Cronbach's alpha coefficients used were 0.82. The paired t-test was used to assess the data statistically. Result: The experimental group showed higher readiness progress (t = 6.834, p 0.001) than the control group. Recommendation: Continuous CPR training using CPR pillows effectively increases the readiness of training participants in dealing with OHCA victims
