Chain of Call
Background/Objectives : More than half of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur at home and are witnessed by family members, who must promptly call the Emergency Medical Services (EMS). The aim of this study was to assess the learning outcomes of an interactive school-based training activity focused specifically on the EMS call. Methods : A single-group, post-test-only simulation study was conducted in five Spanish schools. Participating schoolch…
ICalled-DIY Device for Hands-On and Low-Cost Adapted Emergency Call Learning
Objective : To assess the efficacy of a low-cost, Do-It-Yourself training material for emergency call simulation training, compared to a more traditional approach. Methods : A quasi-experimental design without pre-test was used. A final sample of 762 schoolchildren, aged three to twelve years, received two training programmes. The control group (C-G) received training using an adult dummy and an authentic smartphone (336 schoolchildren). The expe…
Is It Possible to Perform Quality Neonatal CPR While Maintaining Skin-to-Skin Contact? A Crossover Simulation Study
Background : This study aimed to assess the feasibility and quality of resuscitation maneuvers performed on a newborn over the mother's body while maintaining SSC and delayed cord clamping. Methods : A randomized crossover manikin study compared standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (Std-CPR) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation during SSC (SSC-CPR). Nursing students (n = 40) were recruited and trained in neonatal CPR. The quality of the CPR, inclu…
Quality of Ventilations during Infant Resuscitation
Background: There are few studies that analyze ventilation volume and pressure during CPR carried out on infants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of the ventilations administered using a self-inflating bag with an endotracheal tube and a face mask in manikins. Methods: a quasi-experimental simulation study with a randomized case crossover design [endotracheal tube (ET) vs. face mask (FM)] was performed. Sixty participants who we…
Analysis of Physiological Response during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation with Personal Protective Equipment
The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is required for the self-protection of healthcare workers during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in patients at risk of aerosol transmission of infectious agents. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of personal protective equipment on physiological parameters during CPR. A randomized, quasi-experimental, crossover design was used. The study was carried out in a training and simulation…
