| Popis: | Introduction: The Timely Chest Compression Training (T-CCT), a 20-minutes in-situ intervention, was created locally to ensure frequent training in chest compressions for personal support workers (PSW). While it was effective in improving chest compression performance immediately after training, skills retention remained unknown. Method: A retrospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary university-affiliated hospital in Quebec, Canada. Chest compression performance scores were measured with manikins and a subtractive scoring model (Laerdal QCPR®). PSW were invited to participate in a T-CCT. At baseline before receiving any new training, we measured the proportion of PSW that had an “excellent” score, defined as a score greater or equal to 90 out of 100. We compared the baseline performance of PSW who received the T-CCT 10 months prior with those who did not receive it. Results: In total, 404 PSW were included. Of these, 229 (55%) had received the T-CCT before and 175 (43%) had not. Close to half of PSW who had received the T-CCT met the excellent performance threshold (46 % [106/229]), as opposed to 30 % (53/175) in those who had not received the intervention 10 months prior. In a univariable log-binomial model, being previously exposed to the T-CCT increased by 1.53 times (RR 1.53, 95%CI [1.17-1.99]) the risk of having an excellent chest compression score. When adjusted for covariables (i.e., age, experience, sex, and belonging to a critical care unit), the effect of the intervention remained (RR 1.57, 95%CI [1.19-2.07]). Conclusions: Although the T-CCT is a novel chest compression training intervention, our results suggest that acquired performance is sustained over time. Further research is needed to identify the optimal interval between these training. |
