Study On The Effects Of CPR Training For Middle School Students

ObjectiveTo explore the methods and effects of cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)training in middle school students.Methods192middle school students aged12to13years old were equally divided intotwo groups and trained respectively with traditional instructor-led courses(TRAD)andself-directed learning(SDL).Acknowledgement of CPR was evaluated respectively priorand post to the training. The discrepancy of results was assessed by the passing rate inHands-only CPR.Resultthe192middle school students generally lack the theory and operation skills ofCPR. Prior to the training,66.11%of the students had the wiling to conduct CPR forcardiac arrest(CA) patients,80%of the students regard CPR as essential skill for middleschool students,and73.33%of the students were interested in the CPR training. Post to thetraining, the passing rate of TRAD and SDL was69.23%and73.86%respectively inhands-only CPR,and no significant difference was found(P>0.05).94.32%%of thestudents had the wiling to conduct CPR for cardiac arrest(CA) patients,89.77%of thestudents regard CPR as essential skill for middle school students,and73.86%of thestudents were interested in further CPR training in the future.ConclusionIt is practical to have middle school students trained with CPR, which isuniversally absent in the group. and CPR training for middle school students isrecommended.TRAD and SDL are of equal effectiveness in the passing rate.An ideal training mode of "school lessons-physicians instruction-society support" should bepromoted.
