Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Traditional learning

chest compression group learning without CPR feedback device. After a month of quality control of chest compressions is made also without the device.

Device: Standard BLS
basic life support without any feedback device
Experimental: Experimental learning

Training is done using TrueCPR feedback device. After a month of quality control of chest compressions is made without the device. To do this will be indicated on the impact of the use of feedback devices for improving the effectiveness of training in CPR.

Device: Standard BLS
basic life support without any feedback device

Device: TrueCPR
CPR with feedback device

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Effective compressions compression with correct depth (40-50mm), correct hand position and complete decompressions [1 month]

    effective compressions was defined as compression with correct depth (40-50mm), correct hand position and complete decompressions

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. effective compressions ratio effective compressions [%] multiplied by flow time [%] [1 month]

    effective compressions ratio was defined as effective compressions [%] multiplied by flow time [%]

  2. Flow time sum of all periods during which chest compressions were performed. [1 month]

    flow time was defined as the sum of all periods during which chest compressions were performed.

  3. absolute hands-off time sum of all periods without chest compressions or ventilation [1 month]

    absolute hands-off time (HOT) was defined as the sum of all periods without chest compressions or ventilation

  4. Compression depth compression in correct depth (40-50mm) measured by the software is connected to the manikin and computer [1 month]

    compression in correct depth (40-50mm) measured by the software is connected to the manikin and computer
