Optimization of Quality in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Through Monitor-defibrillator With Feedback System

Optimization of Quality in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Through Monitor-defibrillator With Feedback System

AIM: To verify the effect of a feedback system on optimizing quality during CPR on mannequins.

Hypothesis: The quality of CPR performed by healthcare professionals through a defibrillator monitor with a feedback system is higher than those that do not use a feedback system on a manikin.

METHOD Type of study: Pre-experimental with pretest-postest design. Sample: Health professionals of the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Hospital (HCUVA).

Sampling type: Non-probabilistic for convenience. Variables: sex, age, profession, years of experience, last CPR training received, last time performing CPR, depth, frequency, quality CPR, perception of the quality of CPR.

Statistical analysis: Student's t for related samples and McNemar.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Health professionals working in the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Clinical Hospital during the study period. They include doctors, resident doctors, and nurses.
• Health professionals from the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Hospital who receive the training session on CPR quality and use of the defibrillator monitor with feedback system.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Health professionals who do not work in the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Clinical Hospital during the study period.
• Health professionals who work in the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Hospital and refuse to carry out the training and demonstration session.
