Abstract P79: Application of the Video Self Instruction Kit (CPR Anytime
            ®
            ) for The Mass CPR Training Courses and Its Impact on the CPR Quality

Background: We sought to determine whether the video self Instruction kit (CPR anytime ® ) could be a useful tool for the mass CPR training, and to evaluate its effects on the CPR quality compared to the traditional method of learning. Methods: The CPR training courses were designed to 3 different types by the learning method: 45 munites self learning with CPR anytime ® (group A), 1 hour lecture + 45 munites self learning with CPR anytime ® (group B), 1 hour lecture + 1 hour practice with instructors (group C). From July 2007 to August 2007, 405 (34%) participants out of the 1,178 applied trainees were seleted by stratified sampling according to their sex, age, the date of learning, and the learning method. The trainees with any respiratory, skeletal disease or incomplete informed consents were excluded. At the end of the courses, the skill test was done by the checklist and their skill performance was tested using the Laerdal PC SkillReporting System ® . Statistical analysis was performed using One Way ANOVA in continuous variables and x 2 analysis in categorical variables. Results: Two hundred twenty subjects were enrolled properly with 79(35.9%), 66(30.0%), 75(34.1%) belonging to group A, B, and C, respectively. The mean age was 36.3 years and females accounted for 77.3%. We found no significant differences in their willingness to participate, sex, weight, height, and educational status. The skill test indicated no differences among the three groups. In the skill performance, there were no significant differences between group A and B. When compared to group C, group A showed a higher rate of forceful ventilation (58.5 ±38.4% vs 41.3 ±37.9%, p =0.03), a larger amount of mean tidal volume (950.0±416.5 mL vs 745.6±343.8 mL, p =0.00), a lower rate of shallow compression (47.1±40.3% vs 65.4±40.6%, p =0.01), and a deeper depth of compression (38.6±9.6 mm vs 34.1±9.8 mm, p =0.01). Conclusion: The trainees of self leraning with CPR anytime ® showed similar results of the skill test with the trainees of other two longer leraning method, and presented relatively adequate chest compression with the tendency of frequent hyperventilation. On the condition of adding a solution to prevent hyperventilation, the CPR anytime ® can be a helpful tool for the mass CPR education.

Medical Infrastructure

Background: Barriers to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) education are magnified in the developing world by relative cost and course availability. Though Guatemala has a developed medical infrastructure there are few certified CPR instructors and only one agency providing courses. An AHA video self-instruction (VSI) course is now available in Spanish but no data exist regarding its utility and implementation. Objectives: We sought to: (1) implement a pilot CPR education program in Guatemala using VSI and (2) assess attitudes and opportunities for secondary training by subjects (a “multiplier effect”). Methods: Hospital personnel were voluntarily trained using an established 30 min VSI program translated into Spanish, and subsequently demonstrated skill performance. CPR quality was recorded by direct observation and a CPR-sensing defibrillator without feedback. A post-training interview was performed to collect demographic information and attitudes regarding CPR training and the VSI program. Results: A total of 49 participants completed the study. Mean age (SD) was 36 (8), 86% were female, 65% were employees in clinical areas, and 29% had any prior CPR training. Regarding skills performance, 88% evaluated the patient prior to beginning CPR, 65% called for help, and 100% of participants gave 2 rescue breaths prior to each set of chest compressions. Mean (SD) chest compression depth was 38 mm (16) with adequate (>38 mm) depth noted in 51% of participants. Mean (SD) compression rate was 97 (17) per minute and adequate rate (80 –120 per min) was noted in 70%. Survey data revealed that 94% of participants (stated they would take the VSI kit home to practice and teach family and community members. Participants, blinded to actual price in the US ($25–30), stated they were willing to pay an average of $24 US dollars for the VSI kit (n=44). Conclusions: A previously-validated VSI CPR training kit, translated into Spanish, can be effectively implemented among hospital staff in a developing country in Latin America. Attitudes towards home training and dissemination were positive; further work will be required to establish rates of secondary CPR training.

Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Introduction: Hands-only CPR training via a video self-instruction (VSI) kit (DVD & manikin) or a mobile application (app, video-only) allows trainees to share the training materials with others (“secondary training”). This secondary training can amplify the number of individuals trained in CPR, thus increasing the chances of bystander intervention in an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Health apps are an emerging tool through which public health information and education can be disseminated. No study has examined whether laypersons trained in CPR via an app share the training as frequently as those trained via VSI. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that laypersons trained via mobile app will share the training material more than those trained with VSI. Methods: This work represents a sub-investigation of an in-hospital CPR training study for families of cardiac patients. Subjects were trained with either a VSI kit or a mobile app and completed an interview 6-month post-training that measured whether training materials were shared and with how many others they were shared. Multivariate logistic regression was performed controlling for age, race and level of education to determine the likelihood that an individual shared the training. Results: Of 697 participants who completed the interview between 6/2016-5/2018, 281 stated they shared the training with at least 1 person (VSI n=213/356, App n=68/341). Subjects who received VSI training were more likely to share than those trained with the app (OR: 7.16, 95% CI: 4.91-10.43, p<0.01). Subjects trained with VSI had an average multiplier rate of 2.27 ±4.13 versus 0.56 ±1.66 (p<0.01) for those trained with the app. Subject-level analysis revealed that increased age is associated with decreased likelihood that an individual shared the training in both training arms (App OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.96-0.99, VSI OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.97-0.99). Conclusion: Subjects in the app arm were less likely to share CPR training. While it has been widely assumed that app-based solutions may afford unique dissemination opportunities, these results suggest the most effective solution to increasing hands-only CPR training may lie in kit-based options currently available. Further work is needed to determine why app-based training is shared less.

The need for energy is increasing. If fossil fuels continue to be consumed at this rate, they will disappear after a short period of time. Therefore, it is essential to use limited energy resources consciously. How early students wins this awareness, positive outcomes will be much more. The main purpose of the study is to make students aware of the problems from early ages and the object of this study is to find out how Problem Based Learning (PBL) affect the 5th grade students literacy improvement by using knowledge tests. It is an experimental study with a controlled group applied pre-test and final- test. It was carried out with the 5th grade students on 2013-2014 education year. A total of 36 students participated in the study. The involved in the experiment and control group were selected randomly. In the experiment group, the students were taught using activities prepared by Problem Based Learning and in control group, the students were taught using traditional methods. The duration for each group was 10 lesson hours. Data of search was derived using energy literacy knowledge test (ELKT). When researched the effect of Problem Based Learning method carried out on experiment group and traditional method carried out on control group, a significant distinction in favor of Problem Based Learning method was found out. ÖzetEnerjiye olan ihtiyaç giderek artmaktadır. Fosil yakıtlar bu hızla tüketilmeye devam ederse, kısa bir süre sonra yok olacaklar. Bu yüzden, sınırlı olan enerji kaynaklarını bilinçli kullanmak şarttır. Öğrenciler bu bilinci ne kadar erken kazanırlarsa, olumlu sonuçları o kadar fazla olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı öğrencilerin erken yaşta problemin farkına varmasını sağlamaktır ve bu çalışmayla Probleme Dayalı Öğrenme (PDÖ) yaklaşımının 5. sınıf öğrencilerinin enerji okuryazarlığı üzerine etkisini bilgi testi kullanarak incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma ön test – son test kontrol gruplu deneysel bir çalışma olarak planlanmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 2013-2014 Eğitim Öğretim yılı içerisinde 5. sınıfta eğitim gören toplam 36 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Deney ve kontrol grubunu oluşturan öğrenciler şans (random) yoluyla belirlenmiştir. Deney grubunda dersler PDÖ yöntemiyle hazırlanan ders etkinlikleriyle işlenirken, kontrol grubunda dersler mevcut programdaki etkinlikler ile işlenmiştir. Her iki grup için de çalışmanın süresi 10 ders saatidir. Araştırmanın verileri enerji okuryazarlığı bilgi testi (EOBT) ile toplanmıştır.

Background: Patients with a cardiac history are at future risk of cardiac events, including out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Targeting cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training to family members of cardiac patients has long been advocated, but is an area in need of contemporary research evidence. An environment yet to be investigated for targeted training is cardiac rehabilitation. Aim: To evaluate the feasibility of providing CPR training in a cardiac rehabilitation programme among patients, their family members and staff. Methods: A prospective before and after study design was used. CPR training was delivered using video self-instruction CPR training kits, facilitated by a cardiac nurse. Data was collected pre-training, post-training and at one month. Results: Cardiac patient participation rates in CPR classes were high ( n = 56, 72.7% of eligible patients) with a further 27 family members attending training. Patients were predominantly male (60.2%), family members were predominantly female (81.5%), both with a mean age of 65 years. Confidence to perform CPR and willingness to use skills significantly increased post-training (both p<0.001). Post training participants demonstrated a mean compression rate of 112 beats/min and a mean depth of 48 mm. Training reach was doubled as participants shared the video self-instruction kit with a further 87 people. Patients, family members and cardiac rehabilitation staff had positive feedback about the training. Conclusions: We demonstrated that cardiac rehabilitation is an effective and feasible environment to provide CPR training. Using video self-instruction CPR training kits enabled further training reach to the target population.
