Regional School-Based CPR Training With Low-Cost Manikin Delivered by School Nurses: The Home "Multiplier" Effect
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the feasibility and community impact of a nurse-led school CPR program utilizing low-cost manikins, as well as to measure the effectiveness of students teaching CPR to family members at home. The study found that 45.1% of trained students successfully taught CPR to an average of 2.41 family members each, with overall performance scores indicating adequate skills in basic life support but weaker performance in automated external defibrillator use. This suggests that the program effectively extended CPR training beyond the classroom into the community.
