Abstract

Objective To evaluate the training effectiveness improvements of CPR skills by using monitor/defibrillator with Q-CPR (quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation) feedback in undergraduate medical students. Methods Seventy-two medical students in the emergency department were enrolled in this study. Thirty-two students were trained by using monitor/defibrillator with Q-CPR feedback and assigned into experimental group,whereas the other 40 students were assigned into control group and trained with traditional lecture and demonstrating. Knowledge test,skill performance and evaluation of teaching effect evaluation questionnaire of the course were applied to evaluate the training effectiveness. Results Scores of skill performance and personal satisfaction assessment in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group; Quality evaluation in chest compression,ventilation and defibrillation was improved in both groups,whereas performance improvement in chest compression in experimental group was significantly better than that in control groups. Conclusions Monitor/defibrillator with Q-CPR feedback may be applied as a useful tool to improve basic life support skills in CPR training for medical students.
