The provision of an effective education component is highly dependent on the instructional design of the educational endeavor because design strongly determines how content is delivered to and ultimately taken up by the learner. Placing greater emphasis on our understanding of how to increase the effectiveness of education programs will improve performance and lay rescuer confidence and enhance local implementation, all of which lead to the ultimate goal of increasing survival from sudden cardiac arrest.

Best Practices for Education and Training of Resuscitation Teams for In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

learningrqi — Wed, 17 Nov 2021 19:02:39 +0000

Each year in the United States, approximately 292,000 adult patients suffer an in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) with significant variation in their survival rate. This study identifies four themes related to training and education among top-performing hospitals excelling in IHCA survival; engagement, clear communication, consistency, and responsive leadership. Developing tools to expand these areas for hospitals may improve IHCA outcomes.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation retention training for hospital nurses by a self-learner skills station or the traditional instructor led course: A randomised controlled trial

learningrqi — Thu, 16 Sep 2021 13:52:23 +0000

Study demonstrates that skills stations providing feedback are a feasible tool for required frequent retraining and retraining when compared to instructor-led formats. CPR skills performance for hospital nurses using a skills station for recertification was similar to instructor led training both at 2 and 8 months following recertification.

Deliberate practice in resuscitation training using a feedback device, and the effects of the physical characteristics of the rescuer on the acquisition and retention of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills: Randomized clinical trial

learningrqi — Tue, 10 Aug 2021 20:52:11 +0000

Study demonstrates that a structured training program with deliberate practice (frequent and structured practice to improve performance) using real-time feedback improves the acquisition of CPR skills and the retention of skills 3 months later.
