Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

• Measurement of CPR quality - chest compression/ventilation ratio

  CPR quality will be measured with CPR monitoring (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software). Attributes of CPR and a method of measurement: chest compression/ventilation ratio - investigator will count the number of chest compressions and a number of ventilation in each cycle in 2 min CPR. It will be statistically analyzed.

  Up to 36 months

• Measurement of CPR quality - percentage of adequate depth of chest compressions

  CPR quality will be measured with CPR monitoring (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software). Attributes of CPR and a method of measurement: percentage of adequate depth of chest compressions (%) in 2 min CPR. Adequate depth of chest compression (5 - 6 cm). Method of mesurement: (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software).

  Up to 36 months

• Measurement of CPR quality - the longest pause in chest compressions (s)

  CPR quality will be measured with CPR monitoring (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software). Attributes of CPR and a method of measurement: the longest pause in chest compressions (s) in 2 min CPR. Method of mesurement: (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software).

  Up to 36 months

• Measurement of CPR quality - percentage of chest compression when thorax was adequately released

  CPR quality will be measured with CPR monitoring (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software). Attributes of CPR and a method of measurement: percentage of chest compression when thorax was adequately released (%) in 2 min CPR. Method of mesurement: (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software).

  Up to 36 months

• Measurement of CPR quality - rescue breaths

  CPR quality will be measured with CPR monitoring (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software). Attributes of CPR and a method of measurement: the number of detectable rescue breaths and number of unsuccessful rescue breaths during 2 min in CPR will be recorded. Detectable rescue breath means that the software was able to detect the rescue breath. Unsuccessful rescue breath means that the student tried to deliver rescue breath but the software was not able to detect it. Method of mesurement: (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software).

  Up to 36 months

• Measurement of CPR quality - frequency of chest compressions

  CPR quality will be measured with CPR monitoring (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software). Attributes of CPR and a method of measurement: frequency of chest compressions (compressions/min) in 2 min CPR will be measured with qCPR software. Method of mesurement: (qCPR Anne - compression/ventilation feedback software).

  Up to 36 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• Comparison of group A and B: Chest compressions/ventilation ratio

  up to 36 months

• Comparison of group A and B: Depth of chest compressions

  up to 36 months

• Comparison of group A and B: Frequency of chest compression

  up to 36 months

• Comparison of group A and B: The longest pause in chest compressions

  up to 36 months

• Comparison of group A and B: rescue breaths

  up to 36 months

Study Arms (2)

Group A

students who underwent original concept of First Aid

Other: OSCE

Group B

student who underwent new concept of First Aid

Other: OSCE

Interventions

OSCE OTHER

Students undergo OSCE (objective structured clinical exams). It means students will perform CPR for 2 min and their success rate will be monitored.

Group A; Group B
