Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survival remains low at approximately 10% in the United States. High-quality CPR is one of the most important factors in improving survival. The RQI HeartCode Complete ...
Initial implementation of the resuscitation quality improvement program in emergency department of a teaching hospital in China
Globally, there is an increasing need to improve survival after cardiac arrest, with the survival rate of OHCA in China being less than 1% compared to 12% in the USA ...

RCT comparing the clinical effectiveness of conventional instructor-facilitated cardiac compression training to technology enhanced training using high-fidelity mannequins – A pilot study
While effective chest compressions are the foundation of resuscitation efforts and significantly positively influence outcomes, the quality of compressions provided by healthcare providers is poor. International consensus is to provide ...

Longitudinal effect of high frequency training on CPR performance during simulated and actual pediatric cardiac arrest
Evidence has shown that skills and knowledge in CPR begin to decay in months following courses such as Pediatric Advanced Life Support. Due to CPR events being infrequent in pediatric ...

Personalized Training Schedules for Retention and Sustainment of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Skills
The advantage of spaced practice on retention of CPR skills is well documented in literature due to the decay of knowledge and skill within weeks to months post training. This ...

The Effects of a Novel Quarterly Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Training Program on Hospital Basic Life Support Providers’ Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Skill Performance
Inadequate education, such as CPR training once every 2 years, can lead to poor-quality CPR and ultimately low survival rates following an IHCA. Research has shown that frequent skill refresher ...

Baseline Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Skill Performance of Nursing Students is Improved After One Resuscitation Quality Improvement Skill Refresher
Less than half of 467 nursing students who had previously completed a CPR instructor-led course could adequately demonstrate the skills of compressions and ventilation. After one training session with RQI, ...
