Comparison of the effect of chest compression quality between the traditional training and the standard video training / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the difference in the effect of chest compression quality between the traditional training (TT) and the standard video training (SVT). Methods A total of 197 graduate students were divided into two groups according to the different training methods: group A (traditional modality, n=98) and group B (video training modality, n=99). After training for 2 hours, all trainees were asked to practice CPR on a resuscitation manikin for 2 minutes under the monitoring of CPR quality by a feedback system with trainee's back towards compute monitor. The data of chest compression rate (times/min), average depth (cm) and chest compression release velocity (CCRV, mm/ s) were collected and analyzed. Results Compared with TT, the mean compression depth in SVT was (5.42 ± 0.07) cm vs. (5.33±0.08) cm; the effective rate of CPR in SVT was (115±1.034) /min vs. (113.6±1.152) times/min; the mean CCRV in SVT was (439.7±7.72) mm/s vs. (417.3±7.64) mm/s in the first minute (P＜0.05) and (403.9±7.22) vs. (384.5±8.48) mm/s in the second minute (P＞0.05). Conclusions There were no significant differences on improving the quality of CPR between the two groups. The video training showed no significant effectivity on improving the quality of CPR compared with the traditional way.
