Brief Summary
Participants were 45 first-year medical students randomly assigned to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) self-training using either a video-based presentation or a serious game developed in a 3D learning environment for up to 20 min. Each participant was evaluated on a written, multiple-choice test (theoretical test) and then on a scenario of cardiac arrest (practical test) before and after exposure to the self-learning methods.
