Accuracy of instructor assessment of chest compression quality during simulated resuscitation
The use of objective and technology-based measures of chest compression quality for feedback in simulated resuscitation settings is supported.

This study shows lack of agreement between human raters and the feedback device in assessing the quality of external chest compressions.
Findings suggest a computer-based learning course with voice-activated
manikins is a more effective method of training for improved CPR performance than instructor-led courses.
Helpful feedback provides an awareness of skill level, guides performance improvement and is not a one-size fits all solution.
