This longitudinal descriptive study aimed to evaluate cognitive skills acquisition in basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (bCPR) among a group of Year 5 and Year 6 primary school pupils. The study made use of online tools due to the impossibility of conventional methods during the COVID-19 lockdown.
Pupils received formal training in bCPR. Training was imparted uniformly by a teacher at the school (qualified in Basic Life Support -BLS- and Advanced Life Support -ALS- training by the CPR National Plan). The skills acquired (those proposed as essential for bCPR training by the European Resuscitation Council) were evaluated fifteen weeks later. Skills acquisition was evaluated by means of an online questionnaire developed specifically for the study.
In all the cognitive skills included in bCPR training, the acquisition level achieved was over 65%. Acquisition of knowledge of the anatomical areas at which cardiac massage must be applied and the means of emergency systems activation was high, while 25.5% of pupils knew the order in which maneuvers should be performed. Pupils' self-confidence and self-perception of their capacity to act when faced with a real CPR situation increased significantly.
Primary school pupils learned all the cognitive skills involved in bCPR, showing high levels of skills acquisition and positive self-perception of their capacity to apply them.
本纵向描述性研究旨在评估一组五年级和六年级小学生在基础心肺复苏术(bCPR)方面认知技能的获得情况。由于 COVID-19 封锁期间无法采用传统方法,本研究使用了在线工具。
学生接受 bCPR 的正规培训。培训由学校的一名教师(由 CPR 国家计划的基础生命支持-BLS-和高级生命支持-ALS-培训资格认证)统一进行。十五周后评估所获得的技能(欧洲复苏委员会提出的 bCPR 培训的基本技能)。技能的获得通过专门为此项研究开发的在线问卷进行评估。
在 bCPR 培训中所包含的所有认知技能中,获得的水平均超过 65%。对必须进行心脏按摩的解剖区域以及紧急系统激活手段的知识的掌握程度较高,而 25.5%的学生知道操作应按顺序进行。学生的自信心和在面对真实 CPR 情况时采取行动的自我认知能力显著提高。
小学生学习了 bCPR 所涉及的所有认知技能,显示出较高的技能获得水平和对自身应用能力的积极自我认知。
