We studied the effectiveness of two refresher methods on skills that did not involve mannequin practice. Sixty-seven Seattle subjects trained one year earlier were pretested and randomly assigned to one of two treatments that covered the technique of one-rescuer CPR: reading a three-page review (n = 33); or viewing a 15-minute videotape (n = 34). Subjects were tested on a recording mannequin immediately after the refresher. Pretest scores were low on almost all skills. After treatment, both groups demonstrated significant improvement (P less than .01), especially on checking the carotid pulse, correct hand position, and ventilation volume. Although students who had watched the tape performed better on compression rate (P less than .05), there was virtually equivalent improvement on the other skills regardless of treatment. Both methods showed promise for reversing skills degradation without mannequin practice. |
