Brief Summary

Previous studies on compression-only CPR and AED training for the general public have primarily focused on the optimal retraining interval. However, the impact of different retraining durations remains unclear. This study explores how varying practice durations in Basic Life Support (BLS) training affect BLS performance among non-professionals.

Study Design

• Study Type: interventional
• Phase: not applicable
• Allocation: RANDOMIZED
• Masking: SINGLE
• Who Masked: OUTCOMES ASSESSOR
• Masking Details: During the skill assessment, two cameras recorded the process from different angles: one positioned from the feet towards the head of the manikin and the other from the left chest towards the right chest. Instructors, blinded to group allocation, later reviewed the recordings and assessed participants' performance using an evaluation form.
• Purpose: OTHER
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL
• Sponsor Type: OTHER
• Responsible Party: SPONSOR

Model Details: Three-armed randomized controlled Trial
