Education of the practitioners has a crucial role to manage a cardiac arrest case. Aim of this study to research whether there is a difference between classical face-to-face method of education or video tutorials in terms of basic information and practical skills in Basic Life Support training.
Method: 100 first grade students of school of health services aged 18-20 years who had not received any basic/advanced life support training were included in the study. Applicants were divided into two groups. The first group was trained with a video tutorial prepared by a BLS instructor (Group Video) and the second group was trained by a BLS instructor with classical methods (Group Classical). Applicants were questioned for their sufficiency in theoretical information and practical skills. Chi-Square test was used for statistical analysis. p<0.05 values were accepted as statistically significant.
Results: The rate of correct response to the question of where is the compression site was higher in the classical group, and the rate of correct response to the number of compressions was significantly higher in the video group. (Grup Classic vs Grup Video: 50/50 vs 47/50; 40/50 vs 49/50, p<0.05 ). In terms of efficent cardiac compression practice (100-120 times per minute, 5-6 cm of depth) the group classical face-to-face method was found more successful than the group video. (31/50 vs 43/50 p<0.05) In other informative and practical tests there was no statistically significant difference between two groups.
Conclusion: No significant difference was found between classical and video group in order to gain theoretical information and practical skills. Video training can be useful for basic life support education with a well-planned education program.}, number={2}, publisher={Resüsitasyon Derneği}
